Dog thief on the

Dog thief on the
prowl at dawn

From Kompas

Several months ago, I heard a dog howling painfully at dawn.
The howling died away into the distance. All my neighbors thought
that a car had hit the dog. We were told, however, that this dog
had been stolen and taken away in a car. Then in July, my own dog
was stolen.

It was 5:15 a.m. and I was ready to go for a walk with my dog.
The dog was waiting outside the fence. Suddenly, I heard him
howling in pain and I rushed outside. I was too late. A newspaper
boy told me someone riding a motorbike had taken my dog.

So, all dog owners beware. Dog thieves are in action early in
the morning.
