She found the front door kicked in and almost every room in the house ransacked. Missing were a number of valuables, including a .38 caliber pistol and her black Labrador retriever.The lab, whose name is Tug, was one of four dogs at home at the time of the burglary. The woman said the other three dogs were still in the house when she discovered the burglary, but Tug was nowhere to be found. She said the 110-pound, 30-inch-high animal may have run off during the burglary, startled by the violent entry. She said she hopes the burglars did not kidnap Tug.I can't think that they'd take him, she said. We just want our dog back.The woman and her husband are offering a cash reward for Tug's return or information leading to his return.
