HAWTHORNE (CBSLA.com) A free-job referral group for U.S. veterans Monday announced a $10,000 reward for a stolen K-9 unit.
Bear, a black-and-tan German shepherd service dog, was reported stolen on June 19 from West 118th Street and Birch Avenue in Hawthorne, according to Richard Davis of The Bodyguard Group.
A certified K-9 unit service work dog, Bear also volunteered at local hospitals and performed tricks for U.S. veterans and sick children.
Any attempt to sell a certified service work dog is a felony punishable by up to 25 years in prison.
Established in 1967, the Beverly Hills-based The Bodyguard Group provides referrals services to celebrities and political officials and offers free job placement for Navy SEAL and other former military service members.
Anyone with information on Bear is asked to call (310)713-1591.
Maybe they should post his picture on the back of milkbone cartons.
Probably chasing balls thrown by a 9 year old boy and loving every minute of it.
They should check with the local police. Fido may be a target on their shooting range.
Aside from any emotional attachments, the cost of training a dog like that probably easily exceeds $10K.
What a gorgeous dog. Hope they find him.
anybody check obamas dinner plate?
Now who would want to steal a full-grown K-9 officer, who has been trained since he was a puppy to attack anybody who is not wearing a police uniform? Maybe some immigrant from Over There Somewhere thought he looked tasty and decided to take him home for dinner. You never know.

Maybe he just ran away.
Dogs and other pets do that before major earthquakes.
Somehow they know...
Really?
Maybe Bear got tired of being "volunteered".
I would seriously check with the White House Chef to see if a special dinner is being prepared for His Arrogance, Moo and the first brats upon their return from extended vacationing.
