Protecting Against Dog Theft
Over the course of UK lockdown, there has been a 250% increase in dog thefts. Thieves are cashing in on puppies as demand increases and pedigree breeds are being targeted for intensive breeding as the nation continues to demand dogs.
"With more people working from home, the demand for puppies has increased — as has the cost of purchasing a puppy — which has increased from around £500 to more than £2,000. This has become a lucrative market for organised criminals to exploit,' detective superintendent, Neil Austin, from the National Police Chiefs' Council told Sky News.
