Friends, local businesses and strangers have combined to offer a $5,000 reward for the safe return of Hoss, an English bulldog puppy that was wrestled away from his Palm City owner.
Hoss' owner watched helplessly June 13 as two thieves drove away with his 50-pound, 5-month-old pup.
Martin County sheriff's Sgt. Jenell Atlas said Wednesday that investigators are "losing hope as the day passes" in recovering Hoss.
The dogs Owner, Travor Boettcher, said he left Hoss sitting in his truck with the air conditioning running while he checked his post office box on June 13.
When he was leaving the post office, two men in a red four-door, possibly a Ford Taurus, pulled up beside the truck and grabbed Hoss.
Boettcher said he grabbed one of the men, who said he would give the dog back. But when Boettcher let go, the man jumped in the car and the two headed west on State Road 714. The men are described as black, about 6 feet tall and thin with cornrows in their hair.
