Lady Gaga's Dogs Returned

NickNack — Sat, 27 Feb 2021 12:12:00 GMT

They just announced on the Today Show that Lady Gaga's dogs were returned to police. They will give an update on the dog walker, too. They haven't had the story yet. This was just in the headlines for the show. Yea! Great news!

Edited to say: I just saw that this was already posted in Pet Lovers. I'm going to leave it here so that more people will see it.

Yea! I am so glad that her doggies were returned unharmed! I am also do glad that those who were so certain that the dogs were going to be killed, were wrong!

I wonder how the woman came across the dogs?

Maybe we'll find out in the days to come.

@Anonymous032819 I hope we find out soon how she got the dogs, and I really hope the men who took them and shot the dog walker are caught.

I am so happy for her. The woman who turned them is being protected for her safety and for the investigation. It is an active attempted homicide investigation.

So happy to learn the dogs Gustav and Koji are home!

Wish all missing dog cases would have this wonderful outcome.

Now to get the bad guys.

As I said on another forum, I like Lady Gaga, but now I'm not so sure. She offered a reward for return of the dogs with no questions asked, but what about her dog walker? She only seemed focused only on the dogs. Don't get me wrong. Those of you who "know" me here know that Cricket is more than a dog to me, but I would never just focus on Cricket if there was a human component involved.

@MamaWick The dogs were missing so she offered a reward for their return. I understand what you're saying about the human component, but the dogwalker didn't go missing.

Maybe she should offer a reward for whoever provides info leading to an arrest.

Lady Gaga did mention concern for her dog walker several times and also for his family. I am sure he will be well taken care of - she does not strike me as the type to dismiss what happened to him over her dogs.

He was shot resisting the kidnapper(s) and it has been reported that there have been several kidnappings of that particular breed.

I suspect the notoriety of who owned those dogs had the kidnappers release them (maybe they are chipped?) and from I understand the woman found them in a park. She is not considered a suspect.

The police are investigating the shooting. As far as getting stolen dogs back police aren't going to do much. She did what she had to do to get her dogs back. Dogs gets stolen all the time. It's a huge thing lately. If she waited for the police to find her dogs she would have never gotten them back. The police are taking care of the rest.

@MamaWick @Just my own thoughts, but I'm holding judgement back because using a reward for the dogs' return can be an excellent method of getting information leading to the apprehension of the shooter. It might seem like Gaga doesn't care much for her dog walker and the shooting of him, but I just don't believe this is the case. The reward for the dogs strategy has already worked and publicity generated by the incident and the reward could lead to solving the case. If Gaga offered the reward for information and said it was only for information about the shooters, she might not have generated a lead through the return of the dogs and she would have put other dog walkers of well known persons in danger of being injured in future attacks on them that would be motivated by rewards. The round about way of focusing on the reward being offered for the dogs' return is smart.

I'm really happy her dogs are safe. If I had her wealth I would pay that kind of $ to get my dog back and more but.....I think it sets a dangerous message to scum doing these things. There was probably enough heat on them they just dumped the dogs.

The dog walker seemed like a good person and very glad he will live. Horrible story about greed.

I imagine she and other wealthy people will have their dogs walked by a bodyguard or have a bodyguard for the dogs and dog walkers. Not just Fenchies but many pure dogs dogs are being stolen and sold for money. It's happening everywhere to lots and people and has been for a while. People need to be aware and protect their dogs as they would the rest of their family. Don't leave dogs out when you leave or aren't watching.
