It is widely known that dog thefts have increased drastically over the last year. To advertise the fact that a working dog has just been sold to America for £23 thousand, not just once but stressed a second time I find to be totally unwarranted and alerts dog nappers to the value of these dogs. Totally irresponsible reporting. Perhaps the BBC would care to put out a public warning to alert owners of the potential that their dogs may be at risk.
