Lady Gaga’s dad Joe Germanotta says family is ‘sick’ over dognapping
New York Post ^ | Februa | Gabrielle Fonrouge

Posted on 02/25/2021 10:13:05 AM PST by nickcarraway

Lady Gaga’s father told The Post Thursday the family is devastated over the dognapping of the star’s two beloved French Bulldogs, who were stolen at gunpoint in Los Angeles late Wednesday.

“We’re just sick over it, it’s really horrible,” Joe Germanotta, a Manhattan restaurateur, said by phone.

“It’s like someone took one of your kids.”

All I can say she was very kind and respectful to some pearl harbor survivors at Indy a few years ago

The artcle said the dog walker held on to that one.

Before I criticize Lady Gaga about lack of concern about the dog walker, I have to remember this is being filtered through the media. She could have wept for an hour in anguish about the dog walker but the Post would have skipped to the dogs. Or she could have ignored him entirely. The newspaper is there to obfuscate rather than enlighten.

Yeah - the dog sitter may want to think twice about his employer. Fortunately, CA worker's comp law are pretty liberally written and interpreted for domestic help so probably a valid claim on that angle unless he was a subcontractor.

Just going by what's been printed about this so far I'm guessing this is either:

1. Somebody who either knew this was Gaga's dog, or based on location assumed this was some celebrity's dog and kidnapped with the hope of reaping a ransom or reward.

2. Part of the dog fighting community who needs bait dogs to "train" their fighting dogs.

3. PETA types who "rescue" pets from human bondage by stealing and euthanizing them.

For the dog's sake, I hope it was #1.

Hopefully her next dog walker will carry. Sounds like valuable cargo if she’s offering 500k.

For no reason whatsoever I suspect the Walker was in on it and agreed to be shot...

Two weeks ago there was a story in North Hollywood about a bulldog breeder who had two people come to their apartment, they said they were interested in buying a puppy, they came and jacked two dogs, caught on camera

This happened in Blue America. Fortunately, NYC has strict gun control, so it certainly didn’t involve any guns, let alone any shootings. Because, you know, gun control works.

Anyone who thinks it is like someone taking somebody’s children is clueless.

They’re sick over the dogs being dognapped, but not over the dogwalker being shot in the chest four times? What am I missing here?

It’s a terrible thing all the way around. But living in a sick shithole amongst the scum of the earth it’s no surprise things like this happen. Hope the guy recovers, they get their dogs back, and the criminals are killed.

This thread sure brings out the whack jobs among us, as well as those who can’t be bothered to read before commenting. You know who you are.

The third ‘Miss Asia’ ran away. I read a police officer found her and as the dog walker was being attended to by the paramedics he was holding her. Which is sort of sweet and sad at the same time. The dog walker is reportedly recovering well. So THAT is good news.

She’s pop another pop-whoore. Exactly like 1000 others. It is impossible to differentiate them.
