There was a recent case of a woman being punched in the face and her French bulldog being stolen. Yesterday Lady Gaga’s dog walker was shot and her dogs stolen: A gunman shot and wounded a dog walker employed by Lady Gaga on Wednesday night in Hollywood, stealing two of the singer's French bulldogs and prompting a search by Los Angeles police. In the aftermath of the shooting, Lady Gaga offered a $500,000 reward for the dogs' safe return. The victim was walking his dogs when the shooting happened around 9:40 p.m. in the 1500 block of N. Sierra Bonita Avenue, Los Angeles police said. Paramedics arrived to the scene and rushed the man to the hospital. His condition is unknown, but he appeared to be alert and talking to first responders. While the victim was getting treated on the sidewalk, he was cradling a third dog close to him. Another man is later seen removing the dog from the victim's arms to comfort it. Police said the suspect or suspects fled the scene, possibly in a white Nissan vehicle. abc7news.com/lady-gagas-dog-walker-shot-in-hollywood-french-bulldogs-stolen/10369934/ |

I hope she gets her puppies back. And I'm glad she has the resources to make an offer that hopefully will ensure that.

I saw that a bit ago. What an awful situation and I hope she gets them back!
I will say that one of my first thoughts was whether she would also give her dogwalker 500k as well.

I read that she offered a "$500K reward for the return of the dogs, no questions asked".
WTF? I have no problem with her asking for her dogs back, but no questions asked? Not using that reward to help find who shot the dog walker? What?
She better be ready to walk her own damn dogs from now on, if that is how she also values a human life. Gesh.

My first thought was that French Bulldogs were now in high demand for dog fighting. I sure hope that is not the case, that they are just in high demand because for some reason people now want that breed over all others-that they are now extremely popular.
In either case I wish the laws concerning animal rights and welfare were much, much stronger. It's past time they were.

that is crazy! are they really in such high demand? a co-worker said he wants one, and the prices for one (a pet quality one) that he was seeing are well over $5000.
not going to comment on what Lady Gaga said- I hope she just misspoke and doesn't really mean what she said about 'no questions asked.'

I don’t care if she offers a million$ for their return but the ‘no questions asked’ comment, I think she is beyond despicable for not offering a reward for info on who shot the dog walker. Betting she doesn’t offer to continue his pay while he’s unable to work or pay his hospital bill. Just goes to show you money doesn’t buy class.

Okay before we jump to conclusions s here, has it been stated that Lady G will or will not assist the dog walker?

I think from what I know about her that she's a standup sort who won't let the dog walker languish while she pays for the return of the dogs, so why is she being vilified?
My second thought wonders if this was a setup and they were dognapped for possible reward money because they knew whose dogs they were. Or if the area is bougie enough that they figured anyone living there will pay for the return of their little dogs.
No one is that desperate for French bulldogs that they're out riding around with guns hoping someone will be walking one.

What in the hell?!?! Just when I think I can't be amazed at how insane people are. I hope the dog walker makes a full recovery.

Maybe they're flipping them on rehoming sites. I'm not one to cry for guns for all but if this was going on in my city I'd sure think about concealed carry. Or even better, open carry. No one takes my dog. Though I'm pretty sure my pitbull/lab/hound/etc mix is safe. I just told her about this and she was horrified. |

I've seen several videos of does being stolen, while being walked. And also taken right out of their yards.
It makes me angry.

TMZ has the whole thing from someone's security camera - unfortunately bad lighting for identification and no chance for license plate - the only silver lining was people actually helping the poor dog walker. I was kind of scared that I was going to watch the poor man bleed to death without anyone helping.

My Sadie is very upset. Her boyfriend Auggie is a French bulldog and she's worried about him. I hope the dog walker makes a full recovery. Seeing Gaga's past philanthropy, I doubt he's been left to languish unappreciated or without care. We don't need to spread unfounded rumors, right? Rumors video. Couldn't be helped. |

She is offering a substantial reward, no questions asked, so the criminal takes the money, and the police can follow it, or someone turns them in anonymously. When is the last time anyone has seen a reward offered with "you've got a lot of explaining to do" attached to it?  |

When is the last time anyone has seen a reward offered with "you've got a lot of explaining to do" attached to it? The no questions asked would be fine if it just involved the theft of the dogs but in this case someone was shot. An additional reward for info on the shooter would have been nice. |

Who can know what the police will and won't let her do at this stage? Assuming the worst of someone reflects badly on the person making the assumption.
