How do I get my dog back from a Crazy Ex boyfriend?
My relationship ended and my ex babysat my dog for me. WHen I went to pick him up he wouldnt give him back. The dog was purchased and cared for all before I even knew him. I payed for all the vet and grooming bills. Hes even micro chipped, and I have all the paperwork for him in my name. He says if I try to contact him he will call the Police. I have tryed to contact the police myself and they wont help. Ive even tryed animal control who say there is nothing they can do either. So I feel like Im out of options what do I do who can I talk to?

Either take the dog back sneakily or get a lawyer involved.
Wait till he is at work or out of the house and simply "repossess" your dog.
Get the police involved, if you have proof he will have to give the dog back.
Wait until he’s not home, break in and get your dog back. Wear gloves. Don’t get caught.
go over there and take him! just say screw u and im calling the police if u dont give him back
Dogs are personal property.
You march down to the police station and show them your paperwork.
Let them know your dog has been stolen.
the cops any1!?
steal his grass!!!
If your boyfriend is crazy – would you be putting the dogs welfare at more risk by continuing to pursue getting him back?
If you stole the dog back or sued your ex, which are like your only two options, and if the Police don’t consider what your ex did to be theft – the suing option isn’t looking good – would that put your dog in greater danger than he is now?
If your ex cares for the dog adequately, but is "crazy" when it comes to you … maybe you need to move on and get a new dog …
If your ex does NOT care for the dog adequately – then go in there with a SWAT team of your biggest baddest friends if you have to and rescue that dog!
What do you mean that the police won’t help? That is their job. Walk into your local precinct and write a complaint. If they won’t take the compaint and take you to pick up YOUR dog, ask for their supervisor and keep moving up the chain of command until someone will deal with you. If the police chief won’t deal with you, it’s time to move on to city hall. You contact the mayor’s office and let them know that the police won’t help you recover your stolen property, even though you have proof of where it is and proof of ownership. If the mayor’s office doesn’t get things moving for you, start contacting local news directors at television stations, radio stations, newspapers, etc. Make it VERY public that you can’t get help from your local authorities. Document EVERY person you talk to and what you discussed, and what their response was. I’m sure that you’ll get your dog back, just don’t give up.
Go to the vet hospital, and get a registration to show the dog is under YOUR name.
If hes micro chipped, ect get all the details, print them out the more paperwork the better. Call your ex say "look I’m warning you, you either give me the dog or I’m taking legal action". If he still refuses then go down to the police station, show them the work, and if they "say" they can’t do anything DEMAND to file a stolen dog report.
Or ask the police to escort you to the ex’s house to get the dog. If the dog is registered under your name at vet, or anywhere then it’s yours and you have every right to get it back.
If you got the dog microchipped then when it is scanned its unique number will match YOUR contact details. This technically means he is stealing your dog from you as he has it without your permission.
If the police won’t get involved then it doesn’t matter if he calls them (and it would probably be to your advantage if he did anyway). Perhaps try contacting the RSPCA and see if they can help.
First of all whos name is the dog under at the vet clinic if its yours then you can and you don’t have all the stuff like the rabbies cert. just go down to the vet clinic and have them may you another copy then call the police and show the police all that they ask them how to go about getting the dog back wish you luck. Or go to the court house into small claim court and show them the paper work and ask them what you should do about getting your dog back you might have to go to court over it but if you love the dog it will be well worth it.
Your dog is personal property, which belongs to you, you have all the paperwork, get it all together and go and speak to the police face to face, tell them your ex is refusing to give back your property, so has already stolen it, make a complaint and get the police file number………….it is their job to return stolen property ( they don’t like to deal with dogs nor relationship break ups) so arrange with them when they are going so you can collect the dog…………..however several years ago someone stole my dog, they eventually arrested him ( and the dog) 4 weeks later after I phoned daily to ask what they were doing about it…….so I think they got fed up, they put him in the police cells and the dog in another, then called me to collect the dog………..then asked if I wanted to press charges, no I just wanted my dog back, however I should have done……….she is 18 years old now and asleep at my feet.
My ex also has my dog..for the last year and a half i’ve been battling to see him. He lives in an old, cold, dirty damp house and doesn’t take proper care of himself let alone the dog.
I have the paperwork, vet bills etc..but here’s the clincher..he leaves the dog at his mates house whilst he’s at work so i wont come over and take the dog..and i have no idea where his mates live..what do I do??!?!?
My ex GF is doing the same thing to me right now…..she made me believe we were getting back together and promised love, family, happiness, ect.
We tried working on things (well I did) and we been sharing her because she said this will help her bond with her, i agreed and now she refuses to return her, she will not answer my calls, emails, and basically told me I am not giving her back. I live in NYC, she lives in NJ, she is a “in-the closet Muslim Lesbian” and if I get police involved it will only cause more problems because she lives at home with her mother…..
But at this point she is leaving me with no choice but to get the police involved, top it all off it is against her religion to have a dog, they keep her in a garage 10-15 hours out of the day….
Now since she is in another state, and I dont drive what do I do? Do I go to local police or NJ State police?
