Texas woman clings to speeding car for 10 minutes after couple steals $10,000 exotic puppy
KSAT ^

Posted on 01/05/2021 7:55:39 PM PST by BenLurkin

In an interview with KPRC, James said a man and a woman came into the store looking at different dogs and landed on a $10,000 exotic bulldog puppy who was 7-months-old at the time.

However, James said the pair took off with the puppy when she went upstairs to grab paperwork for a UPS driver.

Surveillance video shows the couple leaving with James running after them. She told KPRC that the puppy had surgery just days prior and was in need of special medication.

James explained that the man was driving the vehicle and when he “very aggressively” lurched the car forward in her direction the bumper “kind of like slapped me on top of the car.”

KPRC reported that James was on the hood of the car for roughly 10 minutes as the man drove recklessly around the Houston area.

When the man finally came to a stop, James said he grabbed her by her feet, grabbed her chest and started hitting her.

James told KPRC that while she was able to fight back, the couple still ended up getting away with the puppy.

I’m glad she is OK, but I hope those thieves are caught, severely punished, and the puppy is recovered unharmed. $10K for a bulldog pup? No way.

Who in the world sells ‘exotic puppies’ in a ‘store’?

A dog that valuable has to be chipped.

Now that’s dedication! She was apparently willing to die in order to protect that pup and her 10K investment.
I was sure the article would be about a French Bulldog puppy. Some folks are crazy about that breed. I happen to think the French Bulldogs are among the ugliest of breed concoctions ever. They look hit in the snout with an egg skillet.

Well, there is a blurry photo showing her surfing the car’s hood as it drove down the street. What do you think really happened?

$10K for a puppy? Who does that?

If it’s a he, the dog must be an incredible five-star show quality stud.

What would be funny is if they stole it, thinking they would breed him or her, then found out the dog/bitch was neutered or spayed. LOL!

I think it’s completely made-up.

You can stage and take film of anything you imagine, post it to the Internet, and be famous for 15 minutes.

Sometimes, you can even rope ‘journalists’ into believing it.
(It’s not like they’re the sharpest knives in the drawer these days, anyway...)

Please see my previous post. Wonder what kind of surgery.

Houston authorities have arrested 21-year-old Royshana King and charged her with aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon...

The entire reason explained in one sentence fragment.

American Bullies are all the rage. $10 K is stupid, though.
