STOLEN DOG - Illinois, USA - Page 6

I was hoping for a better outcome. So sad. My heart goes out to the family. Hope they find the bastards!

That is so sad. RIP Hex.

RIP Hex. This is so horrible, words just don't describe it, but like everyone else, I hope the people responsible are found and prosecuted.

So sad..... Such cruelty is inconceivable my heart goes out to the family.  I hope whoever did this is caught

LMH, the fact that Hex's body was found at the side of the road near the entrance to the training field used by his owner, on the group's regularly scheduled day of the week for training there, can hardly support any theory that this was all accidental or coincidental.

No....it does look highly suspicious, Hexe.  I don't frequent the other boards and won't register to get on Facebook, etc, so this info was unavailable to me.  When I first read about the abduction, my mind came to two conclusions.  Professional dognappers.....I'm not going there, or some idiot passerby that had seen the dog and decided he found a stud or companion.  Professional dognappers wouldn't bother returning him.  So----you either have some idiot in the vicinity that let him go and the worst happened----struck by a car.  There's a slight chance he may have been found by someone in the know and that person didn't want to get involved and placed him where he would be found.  If it was personal, and the dog was poisoned and left......I'm somewhat speechless.  He will be found.  Doubt he did this alone, and eventually someone will rat him out. 

I cried a couple of hours today over this dog.  I'm repeating myself right now.  It's awful......too awful for words.  Senseless.  This poor man and his wife.  I'm starting to cry again.

My condolences to his family and friends.....poor boy. Just awful. Truly Heartbreaking. 

RIP  HEX!!

      To many, the words love, hope and dreams are synonymous with our German Shepherds

LMH, I understand--I only broke down and joined Facebook to follow the search for the lost MI State Police K9 last November, otherwise I'd be in the same boat as you as far as the cruel details. 

I've never met the Govedniks, and didn't know Hex, either, but this still brought me to tears today when I saw the update...to think that someone would be so hateful and so cowardly that they'd attack a family through their cherished pet just took my breath away, and I mean that literally--I had a brief asthma attack as I read the awful news.  I only hope Hex didn't suffer and wasn't put through any pain...that's little enough to ask, I think.

From the start, I felt this had to have been done by someone who knew the dog and his family, and who had some real or imagined issue with someone in that family.  I just don't see a complete stranger, knowing nothing about the dog, approaching a large German Shepherd Dog on the dog's own property and then actually taking the dog off and putting it in your vehicle--you'd have to be a crackhead to take that kind of risk with anything bigger than a Beagle, really. I agree with you that there are people other than the persons who actually abducted Hex who know some or all of the story, and eventually someone's conscience will haunt them enough, or there will be sufficient inducement offered, to break their silence and offer up the scum responsible for Hex's death.

Somebody said they hoped the individual(s) who did this rot in hell; I think that rotting in hell is too good for such evil.  Better that their eventual death take them to the far side of the Rainbow Bridge--with their hands and feet bound--where they are met by the"welcoming committee" of all the dogs who had unnecessarily killed humans when they were still here (that's their penance...in the afterlife, they punish those who abuse and neglect other dogs).  Then whoever did this would truly pay for what they've done to Hex and his family, and that payment would be extracted every day for eternity.
