Dog theft punishment should be treated the same as kidnap

The Issue

With dog theft on the rise, I think it’s time to change the law! Firstly pet dogs, cats or any other living being should not be classed as property, dogs have been targeted even more during lockdown, and what people need to understand that to some people losing a dog or a cat is like losing a child, but the punishment for this crime is no different from stealing a TV or a car, this has to change! If someone was to steal any of my doggies it would cripple me in anxiety and distress, my dogs are my children, and this is the case for every dog owner, so let’s work together and ensure the horrible dog thieves out there know, if they steal a dog, they can be Locked up for a long time. We have seen it In the celebrity world as well as the normal world, if celebrities with lots of money are getting targeted with their security then no dog is safe, this needs to be stopped now, and no longer treated any different to kidnap, please help change this for all the animal lovers out there.
