E415- Miami Family Suffers After Dog Sitter Refuses To Return Puppy

0:00 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, so somebody dropped their puppy off at a boarding facility and now the person who's boarding the dog will not give the puppy back to the owner. [SPEAKER_03]: My mind is actually blown. [SPEAKER_03]: I cannot believe these things are actually happening. [SPEAKER_02]: All right, let's just get right into the report and catch you guys up to date.

0:26 [SPEAKER_02]: To other news, now a family is seeking justice. [SPEAKER_02]: After they say their dog said her to care of the family dog, but is refusing to give it back. [SPEAKER_01]: They originally asked the sitter to keep the dog for a short while, but now they're getting the police involved. [SPEAKER_01]: Local Tens, Jeff Daryon is in southwest Miami, date with the details of this story.

0:44 [SPEAKER_05]: All this family wants to do is come outside of their house right here, take their dog Lucy for a walk in the neighborhood, but they can't because the dog border that was recommended to them has taken their dog and refuses to give it back. [SPEAKER_03]: First of all, this guy's a collar that's coming out is like throw back to 2000 and like 10, which is sick.

1:05 [SPEAKER_03]: But I, okay. [SPEAKER_03]: So they brought their puppy to a boarding facility, right? [SPEAKER_03]: So they're going on vacation. [SPEAKER_03]: They're going away for a long week and whatever. [SPEAKER_03]: This is this is normal behavior. [SPEAKER_03]: And I've been working with dogs professionally for over a decade.

1:20 [SPEAKER_03]: I have multiple facilities. [SPEAKER_03]: We do a boarding program. [SPEAKER_03]: We do a boarding program. [SPEAKER_03]: I have some skin in the game here, right? [SPEAKER_03]: you drop your dog off and then you pick your dog up. [SPEAKER_03]: What do you, how is this, what do you mean?

1:37 [SPEAKER_03]: You're not going to give me my dog. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm breaking, first of all, I'm breaking doors down. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not leaving without my dog. [SPEAKER_03]: You know where this lady lives. [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, what do you guys think? [SPEAKER_03]: What would you do? [SPEAKER_03]: If somebody, you literally dropped your dog off to a friend's family or a boarding facility or whatever, I don't know yet exactly what the facility is.

1:58 [SPEAKER_03]: I haven't got that far neither of you, but I'm not leaving that house until my dog is with me. [SPEAKER_03]: I am breaking doors down. [SPEAKER_03]: I am breaking, maybe I wouldn't break it. [SPEAKER_03]: It kind of depends, right? [SPEAKER_03]: Like, let's keep going. [SPEAKER_06]: I won't stop.

2:18 [SPEAKER_06]: Lucy is her name. [SPEAKER_06]: I really wanted to convince my husband. [SPEAKER_06]: So it took me a little bit. [SPEAKER_05]: Small in size, but oh, so big. [SPEAKER_05]: And the hearts of the Boostos family. [SPEAKER_05]: Mom, dad, five kids, ranging in age from 3 to 14 years old. [SPEAKER_02]: This is not easy to watch.

2:33 [SPEAKER_05]: I look over at your daughter and she's crying. [SPEAKER_03]: Nope, that's it. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not I'm I have two kids and if somebody were to take my family dog for me and I don't even need the tears, but the fact that this little girl is crying if my daughter was crying over somebody stealing our family dog.

2:58 [SPEAKER_03]: I just [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know. [SPEAKER_03]: I would be there would be hell to pay. [SPEAKER_03]: There would be helicopters. [SPEAKER_03]: There would be paid picket people out front. [SPEAKER_03]: You wouldn't be able to leave your house without an interaction. [SPEAKER_03]: Like, and I'm not saying, I'm going to get violent with somebody.

3:13 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm just saying, I'm going to be harassing this individual and tell they gave me back my dog. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm sure there's a lot of people out there that would love to get violent with somebody for stealing their dog or breaking to their house to get their own dog back. [SPEAKER_03]: but a little girl crying, if that was my little girl, nope, I'm not, I'm going to the property, right, like give it back as my dog, like give it back to me.

3:37 [SPEAKER_03]: That's one thing I'm confused about this is how do you just sleep at night knowing that your dog is in up, you know where it is. [SPEAKER_03]: It's not like when you lose a dog and your heart is like [SPEAKER_03]: just in shambles and you and your family are terribly missing in your pet.

3:54 [SPEAKER_03]: You don't know where they are. [SPEAKER_03]: You're asking yourself the question of where could they be. [SPEAKER_03]: What are they going through? [SPEAKER_03]: How are they being treated? [SPEAKER_03]: Are they outside? [SPEAKER_03]: Are they inside? [SPEAKER_03]: Have they been attacked?

4:04 [SPEAKER_03]: No. [SPEAKER_03]: You know where this dog is. [SPEAKER_03]: You know where the puppy is. [SPEAKER_03]: It's literally at a lady's house that you have the her phone number. [SPEAKER_03]: You're texting with like a friend. [SPEAKER_03]: You know where the dog is. [SPEAKER_05]: It's just beyond sad, right?

4:20 [SPEAKER_06]: And it is. [SPEAKER_05]: Like it often does, it started off just fine with Lucy going to the border in Miami. [SPEAKER_05]: When the family had it out of town for one of the kids sporting events, again, fine until it wasn't. [SPEAKER_05]: Now, the border is refusing to give the dog back.

4:35 [SPEAKER_05]: A dog that was never hers to keep. [SPEAKER_06]: And she told me, Lately, that she was not willing to remove Lucy from her pack. [SPEAKER_04]: So she said that verbatim. [SPEAKER_04]: said that verbatim. [SPEAKER_05]: She said I am not giving you your dog back. [SPEAKER_06]: I'm not giving her up and she's staying with her pack.

4:59 [SPEAKER_05]: There were calls, texts, you name it pleading. [SPEAKER_05]: Please let us have our Lucy back. [SPEAKER_05]: Lawyers are involved now. [SPEAKER_05]: Demand letters like this wrapped around legalese have gone out. [SPEAKER_00]: Just my son asking, oh, when it's Lucy coming and then the twins, they are screaming her name.

5:15 [SPEAKER_05]: But this a little girl in tears is what this border is doing to this family, this mom says, who adds, there was never ever any fuzziness about the family dog being given up, a lonely dog bed and toys wait for Lucy, dog bolts too. [SPEAKER_06]: I felt like instant betrayal because I know that my son trusted me.

5:42 [SPEAKER_06]: to trust her, and I made a judgment call. [SPEAKER_06]: That was not helpful for my family. [SPEAKER_03]: I just, I, I would, I want to see text messages on the screen. [SPEAKER_03]: A lot of these news reports always show like, I mean, I would. [SPEAKER_03]: I'd be like, let me see what you're saying with this person.

6:05 [SPEAKER_03]: What's this person's name? [SPEAKER_03]: Where, what's her company? [SPEAKER_03]: Like, the fact that these guys are outing [SPEAKER_03]: They're outing this lady so bad, but they're not giving, I'm just curious on why they won't release the lady's name, where she lives, what her business is called, like this lady literally took somebody's puppy and won't give it back.

6:29 [SPEAKER_03]: And they're doing this story on this story, but they're not giving you more details. [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I know it's gonna get clicks. [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I clicked on it. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, okay, I gotta talk about this. [SPEAKER_03]: But at the same exact time, like, why aren't they releasing the information about the lady?

6:46 [SPEAKER_03]: That's where I don't understand. [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe they don't want it. [SPEAKER_03]: maybe they don't want people to go there and then maybe the dog could be at risk if the lady feels extra harassed. [SPEAKER_03]: Obviously, the guys, unfortunately, I can just tell you right now, I would consider myself a normal human being and I use my critical thinking skills to understand many situations in life.

7:08 [SPEAKER_03]: There's so many crazy things going on in the world, and I thought about it last night I'm like, why are all these crazy things happening now? [SPEAKER_03]: And I think the reality is, these crazy things have been going on since the beginning of time, but because we have social media now, we are just, we are minds in our nervous system and our bodies are getting like an influx of [SPEAKER_03]: all this bad stuff about all these crazy stories about court cases and all these things that we're seen.

7:36 [SPEAKER_03]: But I think these things have been going on forever, we're just now hearing about them more often. [SPEAKER_03]: But again, [SPEAKER_03]: We should be out in this person as, hey, this is Elizabeth X, and she lives on this road and this place in town never bring your dog there, but maybe because of the investigation and there's lawyers involved, I don't know if anybody out there has any legal background, you can let me know maybe because the attorneys are involved and they're probably hopefully pressing charges.

8:04 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know yet that they probably didn't want to out her for that reason, but we'll continue. [SPEAKER_05]: We went to the dog borders house and Miami dogs were barking maybe Lucy was one of them lights were on But no one comes to the door and oh there's this battle this mom and family are also fighting at the same time Did you tell this woman that you are fighting cancer?

8:27 [SPEAKER_06]: Yes [SPEAKER_06]: as she said I'm very sorry you're going through that, but that doesn't change my decision. [SPEAKER_05]: So the police are involved, but there's only so much they can do because it's more of a civil issue than a criminal issue. [SPEAKER_05]: This family says though they will keep fighting and these little kids who are so sad are just praying one day Lucy will show up here.

8:48 [SPEAKER_05]: in that driveway. [SPEAKER_03]: In Miami, Jeff to the first of all, shout out to this absolute gangster for going to this lady's house. [SPEAKER_03]: That is absolutely amazing. [SPEAKER_03]: I would be doing, I would be doing the same thing. [SPEAKER_03]: Like, maybe... [SPEAKER_03]: I used to be a dog control officer, which means I was like a, a, a law enforcement officer, specifically for dogs, their rights, their, their laws, all the in between, absolutely hated it, workshop ever, because it's, as you can imagine, it's the worst, the worst, it's like being law enforcement.

9:19 [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, yes, you get to help people, but you also get to see a bunch of really bad stuff. [SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, um, the law, um, the law, uh, [SPEAKER_03]: is dogs are property. [SPEAKER_03]: So this is actual theft. [SPEAKER_03]: So that's something I don't understand as this person actually stole her dog.

9:37 [SPEAKER_03]: So again, I would be that is tricky because I know that there's kids involved. [SPEAKER_03]: You obviously don't want to like, the slidies, if this lady is crazy enough to steal somebody's puppy blatantly like I am taking your dog, you're not getting it back. [SPEAKER_03]: who knows what she's capable of, which is probably why I would assume they're being so cautious about releasing information or whatever, because she has kids and she's, oh, and by the way, she's battling the seward, which is [SPEAKER_03]: I just can't imagine what this family is going through, but it, it leads me to believe like they probably don't have, they don't have the energy, maybe the time, and I don't know, maybe they don't live, okay, Miami, family suffers after, like this is crazy, like this is the things I don't understand, like as a dog owner, I'd be,

10:31 [SPEAKER_03]: literally continuing to knock on the door. [SPEAKER_03]: I would call police and say, you need to get my dog. [SPEAKER_03]: You only mean like, if somebody stole my dog under any circumstance, if it was through my back yard or somebody found my dog and they wouldn't give it back, I would be [SPEAKER_03]: making sure the police come to that residence in that property and I would say, hey, my dog is right beyond this door and this person via text here will not give me my dog.

11:01 [SPEAKER_03]: I need you to get the dog, and then it would be [SPEAKER_03]: Open up police department if not we're coming in bang she comes through the door Man, uh, it's under our it's under our understanding it's our understanding that you have this lady's dog Well, it's my dog now. [SPEAKER_03]: Man, you need to give the dog back.

11:19 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, no, you need to give the dog back unless you're under arrest for theft. [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, fine That I mean guys, and I'm not trying to be Mr. Noah at all. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm just saying [SPEAKER_03]: Wouldn't that be the way that it works? [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, isn't that how this would work if you guys have any law enforcement background?

11:36 [SPEAKER_03]: Let me know in the comments below, but I would just assume That's how it would work like if somebody stole your purse or your wallet or your wedding ring or your phone or your laptop 911 or Local PD. [SPEAKER_03]: I guess it's not emergency. [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, and it could be I mean this is the well-being of another dog You don't know how this lady's treating this dog.

11:55 [SPEAKER_03]: You don't know if this lady's feeding this dog [SPEAKER_03]: who knows I mean it's your dog you know what I mean like I would be calling and saying like you need to come and get my dog out of this house unless I'm gonna go in and get my dog out of this house [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know. [SPEAKER_03]: That's just me.

12:11 [SPEAKER_03]: Even if I have to take a whole day off of work and be away from my kids, I am beating on that door until that lady comes to the door and I'm taking my dog back or I'm outside of her house with a car and I'm waiting for her to come out. [SPEAKER_03]: She has to come outside, right? [SPEAKER_03]: Her car is in the driveway, you can see in this video.

12:29 [SPEAKER_03]: So I don't know guys. [SPEAKER_03]: This is just crazy crazy crazy stuff. [SPEAKER_03]: I want to know your thoughts. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm picking all these random things out of the sky to just speak about because there's just crazy things happening and I think more people need to know about it.

12:43 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm super passionate about dogs as you probably know by now and I'm just [SPEAKER_03]: Baffled, and I'm sure you guys are baffled too about what is going on, but we need to be on the curve of this. [SPEAKER_03]: We need to really be mindful of what's going on out there because it could happen to you.

12:59 [SPEAKER_03]: And we need to know what can we do, what's going to happen, etc. [SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, thanks for listening, thanks for watching.
