The Daily Telegraph featured Arthur & Co.’s founder, Anne-Marie, in an article about the rise of pet thefts, and how pet detectives can assist.
There is also a new breed of private eye on the case — the pet detective.
Christopher Harris, “Dogs of Law”, The Daily Telegraph (Sydney, Australia), 10 February 2018, page 11.
Canine sleuth Anne Marie Curry said breeds such as french bulldogs were the holy grail for thieves as they fetched thousands of dollars.
She said she has worked on five cases of stolen bulldogs in the past four weeks alone — which sell for up to $7000 a pop.
“Common motivations behind dog theft are that these dogs can fetch a hefty price when sold but still half the price of what a legitimate breeder would sell them for,” she said.
