This is pretty crazy; Anarchy in the UK!

According to figures from the UK's Missing Pet Bureau, dog-napping is rife in the UK with an estimated 5,000 pets across the country being stolen each week for breeding, ransom, illegal coursing, fighting and increasingly, to be sold on for drugs money.

There have even been reports of dog owners being threatened with guns and knives by thieves intent on stealing their pets.

Some owners are now too afraid to let their dogs out of their sight and recent research indicates that almost a quarter of pet owners never let their dog off the lead for fear of it being nabbed.

Pet insurers report that some owners have paid up to £2,000 get their stolen dogs back.

My parents wouldn't shell out 2,000 quid to get me back. And I think that says all there is to say about my breeding, right there.
