WATCH: Woman Steals Dog From Brooklyn Corner, Owner Says

PROSPECT HEIGHTS, BROOKLYN — A Brooklyn dog snatcher untied a pooch called Bo at a Brooklyn street corner and calmly walked off with him, his heartbroken owner told Patch.

The owner, who didn't want to be named in this article, said he had just finished playing in Prospect Park with Bo, a King Charles-Cocker Spaniel mix, when he stepped inside of a store on Classon Avenue and Prospect Place to get a bite to eat.

"I came out, popped my head out again, and he was still there. The food was taking a little while," he said. "I went back, and when I came out again he was gone. And I freaked out."

He went to Dees Pet Food two doors down and flagged down the owner who pulled up surveillance video that showed the alleged dognapper walking up to the dog, examining it, and then unleashing it and walking away, he said.

"I was devastated," the owner said. "I was shocked that someone would steal someone’s dog like that."

He said he had recently moved to the neighborhood.

"I usually don’t cry," he said, "and I was balling over this."

Anyone with information about Bo can call 917-521-9816 or email pleasefindbo@yahoo.com. The owner said he won't press charges.

"I’m totally not interested in prosecution," he said. "I just want my dog back."
