In December 2012, a German Shorthaired Pointer called Angel was stolen after being exercised with the owner’s other dogs. The dog was about to be loaded into the owner’s car when she saw a white van leave the area and no Angel in sight. Unfortunately in spite of the great efforts being made by the owner, Angel was never found. It was at the height of this search in March 2013 that Arnot Wilson, director of the Dog Union, saw a graphic about pet theft on the social media feed of an online pet retail website. This lead to the founding of Pet Theft Awareness by him and co founder Richard Jordan.Yvonne catches up with Richard Jordan and discovers the extent of the pet theft problem in the UK.
