Dog Stolen at CVS and Suspects Caught on Camera

On Feb 22nd at approximately 8:37 pm in Marina Del Rey, two people walked out of CVS on Mindano and stole a dog that was tied up by the front door.  The owner of the dog had been in the store for a little over 10 minutes.

The dog’s name is Ziggy (pictured) and has a condition that causes his tongue to hang out all the time. He is microchipped and has a serious medical condition where he needs to have his medication daily.

Ziggy’s brother Wooley was also tied outside with him at the time of the dog-napping.

The owner is devastated as her dogs are her family and she takes them everywhere with her.

Ziggy is a 3 year old male Yorkie with a brown and black coat, and there is a reward being offered.

Ziggy's owner posted a stolen dog notice on craigslist.org and a few days later a complete stranger, Daniel Alexander posted to craigslist offering to receive Ziggy from the dog-nappers so the thieves could remain anonymous.

If you should see Ziggy you can reply to this craigslist post comm-s3u79-2245792490@craigslist.org or call 323-250-3034.
