A Bronx man is desperately searching for his four beloved bulldogs, which he says disappeared under the care of a trusted dog walker. Police are now also putting out the call for help, issuing pictures of the pups, which they say have been valued at more than $32,000.

Eusebio Baez, 35, said he was on his way back from a snowboarding trip to Vermont on Sunday afternoon when he got a call from the walker — whom he has known since 2019 — telling him the dogs were missing from his apartment.

“I just hung up and just drove immediately to my apartment, and yeah, they weren’t there,” Baez said.

He said the dog walker was outside of the building when he got there, repeatedly telling him he had dropped the dogs off the day before. But the dog owner said that after reviewing Ring camera footage, he found video of the walker leaving the apartment with the dogs on Saturday afternoon, but no video of him returning with them.

Now, Baez said, he’s worried something nefarious took place.

“It’s really hard to believe that someone would take in four dogs randomly and not report them,” he said. “Who in New York City in these small apartments would take in four dogs?”

Baez said he made a police report, and that the dog walker also spoke to police. According to the police report, the walker said he didn’t remember if he returned the dogs to the apartment. Baez provided Gothamist with the dog walker’s name, but he has not returned messages from Gothamist seeking comment.

Baez said all of his free time is usually spent taking care of the dogs, named Churro, Mocha, Rosie and Banksy. Now, he’s been spreading the word that they’re missing, searching for them and speaking with local police detectives about the situation.

“My dogs are my life,” he said. “So, it’s like for me to not have my dogs for this amount of time and not knowing where they are, it’s unbelievable. It’s not easy.”

Baez said his story has gotten traction on social media and in local news, and he’s hopeful his dogs will be returned.

“People make mistakes, you know, that’s part of life, all I want is my dogs back,” he said. “I don’t wanna ask no questions, you know, if my dogs are back, that’s, that’s all that matters.”

In a statement to media Wednesday night, police described the incident as a grand larceny, but did not describe any suspects.
