I doubt very much if it would get beyond the Barangay Stage here ( Dogs, are just not an entity here as they are for us Westerners) but as we know, any legal Action will be a hurt to pride [Then the problem starts]

Just my thoughts 

This one is or was being held so theft is theft.

 Yes, maybe it might happen in Manila but the first line tells me the Dog owner has clout, I still doubt very much this would happen in the provinces and certainly not in the favour of a Foreigner, But again it can and obviously has happened, that the PNP will do the proper job for those that can shout loud enough. as you say Theft is theft but...........................

Wife sorted it with the barangay, she's doing voluntary work as a punishment. Could have had her put in jail as it just counts as theft and depends upon the value of the asset, makes no difference if it's an animal or not. Theft has much harsher punishments here than in western countries.
She wasn't a minor, was 18-19.
