In a typical situation, your pet goes missing. You place missing posters around the neighborhood and sometimes even offer a hefty reward. Then, something great happens and your pet is returned.

But is this by chance? Authorities say it is a growing trend for home burglars to now take your pet. They then later call the owner and ask for the cash first, before they return the animal.

And taking your dog on vacation in foreign countries is also a risk. For example, Americans who offer rewards for missing animals in Mexico can be a very lucrative business for criminals.

You should contact authorities immediately if you suspect your dog has been stolen or is being held for ransom.

Animal Radio® reports this week on this disturbing trend. Are we to lock up our pets like we do our bike or car? Hear the Animal Radio® News Report on Pet-napping at AnimalRadio.com
