A desperate search is underway after a rescue dog was stolen during Pawfect Match Rescue and Rehabilitation’s biggest fundraising event of the year. The organization has offered a $1,000 reward for information leading to the safe return of Miss Persy, a pit bull mix who was taken in a shocking theft that has left the rescue community heartbroken.
The annual fundraiser was meant to be a night of celebration and support for the rescue’s life-saving work. The event showcased ten adoptable dogs, each one a symbol of hope and resilience. Among them was Miss Persy, a gentle and loving dog who had endured a tough past but was finally ready for her forever home. Her wagging tail and warm eyes greeted potential adopters, making her one of the stars of the evening.
However, the night took a devastating turn. Surveillance footage from the venue shows a woman casually walking up to Miss Persy, picking her up, and exiting the event. Moments later, the woman is seen placing the dog into a car before driving away. The theft was so swift and deliberate that staff and volunteers didn’t realize what had happened until Miss Persy was discovered missing.
The shelter team is devastated. Miss Persy wasn’t just a rescue dog—she was part of their family. Her disappearance has cast a shadow over what was supposed to be a night of generosity and goodwill. For Miss Persy, this event was supposed to be a step toward a brighter future, not an act of betrayal that put her safety at risk.
In response to the theft, Pawfect Match Rescue and Rehabilitation has taken swift action. They’ve shared the surveillance footage with law enforcement and made it public in hopes of identifying the woman and vehicle involved. Additionally, the organization is offering a $1,000 reward for any information that leads to Miss Persy’s safe return.
The community has rallied in support, sharing the story and spreading the word on social media. Animal lovers everywhere are heartbroken and determined to see Miss Persy brought home safely. Described as a sweet and trusting dog, Miss Persy deserves to be in a loving home, not thrust back into uncertainty.
The shelter remains hopeful that with the public’s help, Miss Persy will be found. They urge anyone with information about the theft or her whereabouts to come forward. Miss Persy’s rescue journey is not over, and her family at Pawfect Match Rescue is determined to bring her back where she belongs.
