Thieves walk off with 10 tons of dog food
Thieves stole more than 20,000 pounds of dog food from an Atlanta warehouse last week, and the owner of the kibble says the loss may put him out of business.
James Galloway, owner of Intown Healthy Hound, told WSBTV that the stolen food was worth $35,000.
It was stored in a warehouse that was broken into Wednesday. Police said the thieves apparently cut a hole in the fence of the next-door property, climbed through the warehouse window and used a forklift to move pallets filled with the dog food and load it onto a vehicle.
There was no camera or alarm on the property, police said, and Galloway said he didn’t think his insurance covered items being stored outside of his shop.

So, what? Now there is a market for stolen dog food? Smells a tad fishy to me. That’s a big risk to take for some kibble. Doesn’t make any sense.
