Joe, this is one time when being a "celebrity" has its benefits. Put Gypsy's story out to your local tv and paper. Get her back where she belongs. Good luck.

this is so true, me and my coworkers (retail) once discovered a kidnapped puppy because the owners were posting about it all over social media.
You need to alert every veterinarian within 100 miles of this and describe your dog and give them the chip ID. You have nothing to lose but a little more time. Sooner or later she’s gonna show up.

Let’s hope he somehow finds Gypsy, but in the mean time, the ratting has to continue. Hopefully, Gypsy is being well fed at least.
Don’t give up on Gypsy so fast, advertise on the radio, Facebook, anything that’s local. It’s got to be better than training a new dog. Especially posters at that golf coarse or park!

"So fast"? he said multiple times in the video that this happened awhile ago and was waiting to post about it. At some point it is best to come to terms with the situation and move on and not get your hopes up with every noise you hear outside or every time your phone rings. He has a business to run so that does factor into this as well. Shes chipped so there is hope she can be returned one day.
People who steal pets are lower than low. Gypsy had an enriched life as a working dog, and now she's going to be locked away in someone's home, so they don't get caught with her, where she'll be bored to tears. The thief has no regard for the dog's quality of life at all. So incredibly selfish!

Oh man, what a huge bummer. Stealing a hunting dog and removing its collar is a felony here. I'm so sorry.
I am so sorry for your loss. My friend breeds hunting beagles and this happens to him a lot. Someone saw him working one of his dogs and came by later and stole her from the yard. She had young nursing puppies too. Cruel and heartless people. Another beagle was stolen during a hunt. He had a tracking collar on it. But the thief's friend recognized the dog and brought it back.

Oh no, not Gypsy 😭😭😭😭😭 I had a sinking feeling when I saw the video title. Sending love and support to you Joe ❤❤❤❤
I would definitely still put the news out there in your local areas as much as possible. The more time goes on, the more likely a dog thief will become more comfortable walking the dog out in public, taking it to a vet, etc. The more people that know about her, the more likely someone will possibly recognize her and call sightings in, which can lead to tracking the person down. There have been SO many instances of stolen dogs being brought back home simply because a stranger recognized them being walked out in public. Definitely don’t give up entirely.
I don’t think the people commenting realize this situation has already been going on for 2 months. The likelihood of Joe seeing Gypsy again is slim to none, sadly. Only a truly terrible person would do such a thing, I’m sorry for your loss.

I've had my dog get out of my yard a few years back & animal control actually had her. Shes chipped, animal control didn't even bother to try to read for a chip for the 3 days they had her. If you haven’t already might be a good idea to take a trip to your local stray animal shelter and double check. All we can do is hope that one day Gypsy's chip gets read and she’s returned. So sorry to hear about this Joe! Sending hugs

Im sorry to hear that Joe.. Worst nightmare out ther So many people think that they're doing better by taking dogs away. Especially some of the animals rights activists. They see a dog that has scars around its muzzle.And they think it's abused not that it's enjoying its job.
How sad and horrible. My friend has a GPS device implanted in his dogs. I think that is the way to go. I'm sorry for your loss.
I felt so sorry for your lost , first Shuri , than Boss and now Gypsy , they were such a amazing dogs , and have great lider like you , my fav performace of Gypsy was in that little shed with 512 rats , she was the best between all your dogs

Animal thieves steal animals and want shut of them as quick as possible, usually advertise a dog with a sob story they can't keep it, steal a random dog that vaguely matches their description, take the cash and leave.
That is gut wrenching to hear... Some people just have no shame.
Sad ! Sooo sorry , I had my hi dollar lab stolen ! Had him in my kennel with a leash latch on the gate latch because he would open it with his nose. The leash latch was hooked on the fence and the gate was closed !! Of course he was chipped but you know if a person is going to steal your dog they’re not going to bring them to the vet !! I hope gypsy is found for you brother !!
Appreciate you updating us joe, I'm so sorry to hear about Gypsy and the cruelty in some people's hearts. May she at the very least be taken care of with whomever she is with now.
I stopped everything when I read Gypsy's name. Thinking of you and the family, she is smart, animals can be gone for a long time and still return.
Once again, very sorry Carter family about your losing another dog. Gypsy was a passionate hunter and a lot of fun to watch. Thank you Gypsy.
That sucks hopefully u get her back safe
I am so sorry! I agree with alerting every vet in the area and beyond! Also post in as many social media pages and someone might come forward.
Poor Gypsy! I remember looking for my dogs when they got out while we were on vacation. I was distraught. I got them back from the people who had them. I hope you have the same luck! Im so sorry!

Some people suck! Sorry for your loss
I’m so sorry to hear about this. Gypsy was one of my favorites ❤️
I hope she returns in good health 🤞🏼

Oh man. That really sucks ! Gypsy was one of my absolute favorites to watch ratting. 😢 I would definitely be watching out for vets and shelters, she would be a prime candidate for dog fighting unfortunately… she has the game -bred physique and is in excellent shape. People who dog fight ONLY see them as money. Incredibly sad , I remember when you first got Gypsy and I had some doubts how well she would do with other dogs , I was amazed to see your dedication to her and her natural talent ! DONT give up looking for her , it’s been a few months , but she could still be in the area. Sometimes even hanging up posters in less than ideal neighborhoods can help! NOONE likes dog fighters except dog fighters , and might’ve seen her and not said anything over fear of being attacked

that was my concern to, or even using her as a bait dog. doesnt bear thinking about it... just awful
Jacks have a hell of a prey drive, even from shelters but with work can be trained to leave certain animals alone. They never lost that hunting drive. Recall can be a little hard worth them. My old jack Russell learned to leave the neighbor's chickens alone but would happily pursue anything else. Hell the reason he kept getting returned because he wanted to chase after things lol. Killed every mouse and rat we came across, a couple rabbits, and once wanted to take on an elk. Eventually was trained as a service dog for me!

Only the lowest of people steal someone else’s dog. Despicable!

I've got an mini Australian shepherd, very smart and small. Good dog for filling a job.
I lost a dog that way too a few years back. Sorry for you and hoping for the best.
Joseph Carter, I am so sorry to hear about Gypsy, your dog. I love your show and God bless you 🙏 ❤️!
Wishing for her safe return 🙏 ❤️
I'm so sorry Joe, if she comes back pick up some air tags put them on there collars, just another layer of protection or see if there's such a thing as an air tag built into a chip.
So sorry to hear this. So much scum in the world. Fingers crossed for a miracle for you. Bet she’s fretting for you all. Poor girl
Someone in my neighborhood stole my dog when I was 13. They only came to their home on holidays and vacation they did not live there full time. They took the dog to the home they stayed in out of town. I got lucky that my dog, a Jack Russell, was too much for them and they brought her back. The audacity of people is disgusting. I was just glad they didn’t take her to a shelter or give her away.
I am sooo sorry Joseph! I hope you get Gypsy back‼
My dog would love it, but she's a beast! I'm sorry about Gypsy. I hope you still get her back.
I lost my dog the same way but different way I’m so sorry about that ❤i hope you find her again!😢
Hope you find her & there are still good people on this planet 🌎
Noooo 😮😱 am so sorry to hear that. Why would someone do this. Its awfull. I wish karma will get them fast and hard. Some people need to take a long walk on a short pier😤
Everyone in your area needs to hear that she is lost and be on the look out for her!!!!!!! This is such a crappy situation. I'd be beside myself! As others have said, contact the news, and everyone on social media spread the word to get her back.
I'm so sorry your family had/have to go through that. Sending prayers to you and your family. 🙏🙏
Sorry for your loss! People are the worst!
She was my favorite. How heartbreaking! You need to teach them to STAY CLOSER to you, so this kind of thing never happens again. And the comment below about contacting all the vets, I agree. People are absolutely SKUMBAGS. Also please tell the person raising the new pups not to get them vaxt because it is NOT what we are told anymore. What they are putting in them is op/erating sy/stems, and it is a travesty. Please don't let that happen.
😢😢😢😮😮 Soo sad to hear this!! Love love love your little gypsy.. praying she is found safe and happy!!
Some people are horrible. Stay strong my man. Keep up the good work
I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't believe someone would do that. Prayers she returns. 🙏
I feel for you my friend-much love to your family.
Don’t give up spread the word hope this story has a happy ending
Praying for you, your family, your mink, and your dogs, Mink Man. Thanks for giving this alert about possible dog-snatchers! 💔
I'm shocked and sadden for you loss. It's like a candyman take you kid away. Just sickening what people do. On the otherhand there is a breed called Plumberterrier in England and they using it for the same thing ratting. They have a few videos up here on you-tube and cause of those guys I find you and I'm here ever since. No offence but I can't understand the village British so the autogenerated English just didn't cut it for me. But I'm glad to find you. I hope in time you will find some healing for Gypsy and all I hope at least she is treated well. Good luck finding a good working dog ! Fare well little Gypsy!
So sorry for your loss. I hope that all of you efforts pay off and Gypsy can come home.
Wishing the best of luck that you get them returned... Never lose hope.
I’m so sorry. 😔 I hope she’s home real soon. Even with this loss you are educating us about the breeds and how some work and some don’t for this job. Take car guys. 🇬🇧
Sorry to hear about gypsy. What is wrong with people, how could someone be so low to steal someone’s dog. That’s basically stealing someone’s member of family. Awful! I hope she returns safely and in good health.
So sorry, it's a crying shame. I know the area where you lost her, I'll keep an eye open. We frequent that area. On the positive side, I'll be looking forward to seeing more videos soon, and on occasion, maybe running into ya again in the area. God bless brother
So sorry for your loss. Hopefully 🤞 eventually she returns.
So sorry.... keep trying to find him. Makes me sad there are people like that.

Sorry to hear that. I've had close calls with people wanting to take my dog!
Hey Joe! It's true that you put a lot of effort in training your dogs, Boss, Sherni,, and Gipsy ( sorry if I spelled her name wrong) they are awesome animals, take care of Bindi and Leia, Tag. Hopefully someone will Not take them as well. I'm sure Gipsy will find you. She is one awesome dog. You should try getting a Malinois since they don't have and off switch and fast and love to get things with their mouth and you have a wonderful sport for them. A suggestion....... next to a terrier that you are waiting for. Keep posting. Love your shows.
Damn sorry for the loss, I hopefull everything will turn out great.
I’m so sorry, Joe. Big hugs to you and your family for the loss of Gypsy. I’ve volunteered for many yrs at a large public shelter in the Southeast, and unfortunately, we know of a lot of dogs that are stolen from their owners to be used as “bait dogs” for the illegal dog-fighting enterprise. I really hope this didn’t happen to Gypsy. 😢
I hope you find her❤️
So sorry that this happened! The girls must be pretty upset as everyone! Prayers Gypsy is found ❤️
I just can't like this! Joe sorry to you and your family, I hope this is shared enough to help you. Love from the UK
I’m sorry for your months of struggle, Joe, that’s hard. Maybe you can still find Gypsy in the future, even if you get a new working puppy. Hopefully Gypsy is alright.
Broken heart, I hope you get your dog back. Prayers for a safe return.
So sorry to hear about your loss of Gypsy - you don't seem to be able to get a break with your dogs to establish the smooth working team that we all admire & enjoy watching at work. With any luck she'll give them the slip and end up scanned and then returned to you. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻.❤
Sending out love. Sorry man.
Sorry for your loss.
So sorry to hear this man 😕
How terrible! Yt hasn't been notifying me, but it doesn't look like you posted any earlier than this? We (collectively) could've been looking out for poor Gypsy sooner, had we known! People suck, but not quite everyone. Damn.
Don’t give up. I work at an animal shelter and we have had dogs show up that have been missing for a year or so. I pray who ever has her is being kind to her. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
i am so sorry for you loss
Aw, man, I really hate to hear this. I just ran across your channel last week and have been binge watching as many of your videos as possible, and have really enjoyed all the different jobs and personalities of your dogs. I love that Bindi girl, and really was sad to watch the videos about Boss and Sherni's losses, as well as good ol Boone. I really loved how gritty Gypsy was in all the videos, and now some lowlife has taken her from you. A thief is about as low as a person can get. Who knows? Gypsy could get away and one day, make her way back to you. But in the meantime, good luck finding Gypsy's replacement in your working crew. You and your family are good people. Best hopes for you guys
sorry to hear about your loss, that sucks man. i had a jack russell, took him huntin all the time. great hunter and loved going down holes. he was a fierce one
Joseph here is something I did to protect my dog. On his collar I had a tag that if found call owner immediately, dog has a rare disease and needs expensive daily medication reward if found. I locked the collar on to the dog with a security screw and nut also used red lock tight. I made the collar out of a chain wrapped with para cord. You would need a bolt cutter to take it off as few people have the key which looks like an Allan wrench but an odd shape with a tine hole for a prong on the key. Their call security screws I think.
So sorry Joe, I hope Gypsy turns up soon!
I am so sorry for your loss .i might have reservations about the dogs name but it’s clear how much you loved each other and I hope you can somehow find them
Sorry for your loss..😢
Oh man, not our tenacious little Gypsy. Really hope you guys get her back 🤞
DAMM Joe sorry to hear this about your Dog hopefully whoever took gypsy thinks about it and changes his ways and gives your dog back
