Stolen dog appears on Marktplaats, but it becomes too much for the thief | Inland

The dog had disappeared after Charlotte left the animal in the backyard of her home in Nijmegen. “Suddenly Beertje was gone,” Charlotte tells the regional broadcaster in tears. “We hadn’t looked for ten seconds.” The dog had only been in her possession for six weeks, but already her faithful friend. “Bear means everything to us.”

When her dog was missing, she searched all around her and posted on social media asking others to help find the animal. The man turned out to have taken the train at the station in Nijmegen with her dog, it soon turned out. Several people had seen the man with Beertje, a 14-week-old puppy. “A girl has seen Beertje under someone’s arm. And a conductor also walked behind him on the platform.”

And then she gets a call from the thief. The animal may be collected without compensation.

Too hot underfoot

The thief had offered the animal for sale on Marktplaats and received a load of reactions. “It made the thief too hot under his feet, so he decided to remove the advertisement and call the owner,” says Barbara Seesink of the Waar is our Angel? This foundation helps with the search for missing animals.

Charlotte filed a report on Saturday morning, but it is not yet clear whether the police will take action. She does not know what the reason was for the theft of the animal: “A toy poodle is a popular dog and also quite expensive. Or maybe it happened in a drunken stupor.”
