[Johnny2X2X]

OMG, crazy. They stole 2 of her 3 French Bulldogs. Dog walker is in grave condition. This happened in LA.

1. Sick f*cks everywhere

Disgusting

French bulldogs are in high demand and expensive. They typically sell for anywhere between $1,500-$3,000 on average, however those with pedigree lineage can go for as much as $10,000.

10. And they have all kinds of health problems. And people

still buy them for big bucks.

19. i dont understand ppl who buy them in pet stores.

i have 2 pedigreed victorian bulldogges. both most excellent dogs.
bought them from a breeder, and drove from chi to no carolina to get them.

i know someone who has one who is an idiot and an oaf. she paid twice what i did for mine. not housebroken at 3 yrs old. that's mostly on her, but still.

she has no idea where hers came from. i know exactly where mine came from.

3. I am a professional pet sitter and I won't walk dogs

any more. It's too dangerous.

That is so awful.

Part of the problem is that purebred dogs bring really high prices. They are way over priced.

They are having a terrible time in Great Britain. Thieves are going onto farms and stealing working border collies and whole litters of pups because they are bringing such high prices.

11. Wow. Really?

I had no idea. None.

[leftyladyfrommo]

12. A top trial border collie in Great Britain just sold for

Something like 38 000 pounds.

13. Black market dogs

Sounds like a band name.

[chowder66]

27. +1

[leftyladyfrommo]

18. This wasn't black market. It was auction.

4. God

John Wick is needed here badly. You hurt animals, you deserve a bullet to the eye socket.

[mnhtnbb]

5. Or kidnapped for ransom?

Now the kidnappers know who the owner is? Or maybe they already knew?

[LisaL]

7. Could be totally random.

French bulldogs are expensive dogs.

[Irish_Dem]

14. Once you shoot the dog walker, the police get involved. Not a good way to get a ransom?

[sinkingfeeling]

6. I saw a news story a few days ago about dognappings skyrocketing across the nation.

But shooting someone is beyond awful.

[exboyfil]

8. The internet would destroy her if she pays a ransom

I don't think these slime buckets are going to get what they are after.

I imagine Mel Gibson in Ransom.

&t=59s

[LisaL]

16. TMZ is claiming that she is offering large reward for the return of the dogs.

No questions asked.
Hello? The guy has been shot.

[exboyfil]

17. Priorities

Wow just wow. A reward facilitates their ability to avoid prosecution. I love my dogs, but I love people more - especially someone who obviously put up a fight to protect her dogs.

[FlyingPiggy]

30. I would hope (and like to think) that Lady Gaga is better grounded than that.

I think in luring the thieves in for dog money, they will catch the attempted murderers. They won't respond with turning themselves in for attempted murder. But maybe they will for big money.

[Demsrule86]

21. Of course she should pay a ransom. I would. Dogs can't identify anyone but I doubt after

the shooting there will be a ransom demand.

[Johnny2X2X]

9. Can't imagine what Gaga is going through

I'm sure she knows her dogwalker well and is both devastated for the potential loss of human life and the loss of 2 out of her 3 beloved pets. Frenchies are a trip, really have a ton of personality. And I'm sure hers are champions. Hope the walker survives and hope she gets her pets back.

[LisaL]

15. I am much more concerned about the guy who has been shot multiple times.

NT

[Johnny2X2X]

23. I asked myself the same question

We are dog people, our dogs are like our kids. I would be equally upset at the employee who is shot and my dogs who are in the wrong hands. That's my honest answer. I love my dogs more than I love people. Of course human life is more valuable, but emotionally, my dogs mean the world to me.

I'm sure she'll get hammered for the GoFundme vs $1/2 Million reward though.

[blueinredohio]

20. That's why I have a mutt.

No one wants her but me.

[BannonsLiver]

22. I clicked on the thread wondering if some here were already attacking her for the reward

And sure enough...right on cue.

[aocommunalpunch]

24. I expect more of this.

When times become desperate enough, people will try to extract money in increasingly awful ways.

[GoCubsGo]

25. I hope they catch the ratbastard.

I hope those dogs are microchipped.

[lindysalsagal]

26. 4 gsws? Doesn't sound like something anyone survives.

Makes you wonder why bother with 4 shots when 1 will get the person down? 2 shots from each killer? That alone makes no sense. People are just gun crazy.

[LisaL]

28. There is a surveilance video of the shooting on TMZ.

He put up the fight when dognappers showed up. Tried to prevent the dognapping.

[lindysalsagal]

29. OK That's incredible. I don't think I'd do that. Honestly.

[Yeehah]

31. People who buy dogs from a breeder instead of getting one at the dog pound

are assholes.

[question everything]

32. One more proof that violence rose in the past four years
