The playstations, ipads and computers can be replaced, but the five-year-old French Bulldog Papo is irreplaceable, the owner who asked to be identified as Andrew told the news station. The robbery happened around 8:15 p.m. Friday at a home on Mark Trail.
"He's black, has brown stripes on his back. He's 5 years old, really kind, a little shy. If he's out there, he's probably scared," Andrew said.
