FWIW, I don't blame the store employee, who has never been under any obligation to double check ownership of dogs when people ask for them.

But one would think that they'd have a system with a claim check or reciept to prevent this from happening. Frankly this is inexcusable.

I'm sure they will have some kind of claim check system now, and if they actually enforce it, I am sure people will get angry when they lose the claim check. You ever been questioned or carded when picking up your animal from the vet? or a groomer? No one expects someone to lie about whether it's really their dog, especially when they have to pay the bill to pick her up.

How many times have you been given a claim check and returned to pick up film, your laundry or whatever where they actually require the ticket? You give them your name, they go look for your stuff. This is no different. People don't expect theft like this till it happens. Once, and the rules then change for everyone, for awhile.

The problem is crooks are always a step ahead. I would never have thought about needing a receipt. I guess I now need one from my vet, the station I leave my car at for oil changes, the cleaners .........
