1/10(FILES) In this file photo taken on December 3, 2021 super lightweight fighter Montana Love (L) holding his dog Pappi, a six-month-old Merle French Bulldog and Carlos Diaz pose during an official weigh-in at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. - The two thugs who brutally pulled a gun on Marieke Bayens, a 27 year old Californian woman, were not after her purse or her life: they were after Merlyn, the little dog she was holding on a leash, because it is a French bulldog.
From New York to Los Angeles, from Miami to Chicago, thefts targeting this dog breed are multiplying in the United States. (Photo by Steve Marcus / GETTY IMAGES NORTH AMERICA / AFP) Forrás: AFP/Getty Images/Steve Marcus
