Australian thief steals motorbikes after leaving dogs as security
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060816/od_afp/australiacrimedogs_060816184240

SYDNEY (AFP) - Australian police warned motorbike owners to be wary of a brazen thief who is failing to return from test rides after leaving a pet dog behind as security.

Western Australia Police said the man had stolen two expensive bikes advertised in the classified section of newspapers, each time taking them for a test drive and abandoning a dog.

Both animals were being kept in a local authority pound and faced being put down if they were not claimed, police added.

Wow, they lost their bike and didn't even get to keep the dog? That sucks!

Damn, thats a hell of a great idea. Illegal as hell but what a great idea for a scam.

Have always be intruiged with the minds of criminals and their thoughts. Trust me, I am not condoning this behavior, just remarking on my initial thoughts when I read the article.

Stolen dog is my guess. Those Labs will get in a car with anyone and treat him like the owner. A good pet owner (myself included ) might fall for this scam.
