it's definitely happened. My friend's dog was stolen, and, when they found him, both his ears had been cut off. I've even heard (but, never seen firsthand) of dogs and cats having limbs removed, because the tattoo was on their inner thigh or something. Again, I've only personally seen the ear being cut off, but, I wouldn't doubt that there are sickos that would cut a leg off, too. I think my friend's dog was either on it's way or found at a lab. That's when I changed my mind about leaving a dog outside unattended (and, I'm not saying everyone should feel that way).

How horrible!!! Those people are oh, I can't think of anything to say! That is one of the reasons that I want to get Heidi microchipped instead of tattooed.
