• Avoid Doggie Doors – Although you
  may feel like your backyard is a safe place for your pet, you should always be
  conscious of when they are outdoors. 
  Those looking to steal neighborhood pets might sneak in unnoticed if
  your yard is visible from the street.
• Keep Gates Secure – Install a spring
  latch on the backyard gate that forces the door closed.  This will help keep your pet from getting
  loose.
• Never Leave Your Pet Unattended –
  Treat your pet like a child.  Don’t leave
  your pet in the car while you shop or leave them tied to a pole.  It’s not safe and it leaves an opening for
  theft.
• Check References – Hiring a pet
  sitter, dog walker, groomer or trainer can be helpful for you and your
  pet.  However, check your references
  first.  Make sure that you can trust the
  professional you choose to hire.
• Permanent Identification – If your
  pet goes missing, you want to have all the necessary documents to prove
  ownership.  Microchips are a great way to
  ensure you can find and identify your pet. 
  Just make sure you keep all the paperwork!
• Spay or Neuter – We recommend that
  you do this anyway (there are several health benefits), but spaying or
  neutering your pet will also make them less desirable to thieves. This is
  especially true for pure breeds.
