Protect Your Pooch! Dog Thefts Are Up 32 Percent<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>
\nLOS ANGELES (CBS) \u2014 If you\u2019re one of millions of dog owners in the Los Angeles area, be sure to keep an eye on your beloved four-legged friend. Dog thefts are up 32 percent this year, according to the American Kennel Club. Stolen dogs are almost always resold, and are often used in laboratories or dog fights. Pit bulls and other large breeds are stolen the most frequently. Purebreds are also at risk because thieves think they can get a lot of money for them. However, without paperwork, purebreds are usually no more valuable than mixed breeds. The AKC database of registered dogs show 224 pets have been stolen this year, compared to 255 for all of 2010.<\/p>\n

He continued that God wasn't important, wasn't real, and our parents just used God to impose restrictions on us because they were inadequate to parent effectively. I knew then I was going to be involved in a war and that I would have to be in Jesus Christ's Army. Even then, I knew the United States of America would cease to exist without the vast majority of its citizens voluntarily submitting to the Perfect and Good Laws of the Holy Bible. I am a woman who loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I am tired of seeing our LORD denigrated from the school house to the White House. I search the Internet for items that ought to serve as a warning to Americans and Christians all through America, but the nation seems to be sleeping. Wake up America!
