Cindy C asked in PetsDogs · 1 decade ago

I was in need of someone to watch my dog and 6 days later the lady wouldn't give my dog back what can I do?

The lady after 6 days left messages on my cell phone complaining that my dog was urinating in her house and that she was taking him to the pound. So I called her and then she started changing her story but when I insisted that I come and pick him up she threatened to call the police. So I went to her house and called the police to make her give him back. She started telling them outrages lies and the police did not make her give him back. I am wondering if there are any AZ laws governing peoples pets.

    If you have your dog licensed call the dog Pound/catcher. They will have record of ownership or city will. If not I'd wait til she let it out and call it and take it back!

    Take her to court. Do you still have the messages she left on your phone? You need to save things like that. Not sure about the laws in AZ. but you could look them up on your computer.

    If you bought the pet, and you have paper work or something that prooves the pets yours, then you can take this to court. Or you can play the same way shes playing call the police again and say things like what shes saying.....

    Right well you should have a micro chip and that would list you as the owner. You will have photos etc. You surly have him licensed under your name. Vet invoices for shots etc.

    All these are proof that he's your dog. Just take all the evidence to the cops and then they will can sort it out.

    Get somebody to distract her and then steal your dog back!

    Either that or sit on her and call the dog until it comes back.
