"I think it's very suspicious that three very large, friendly dogs disappear from the same neighborhood at the exact same time," Robin Lewis, whose black lab Jack is among the missing dogs, told KXAS.

According to the Wise County sheriff, 40 dogs have gone missing since November.

For families like Lewis', the situation is tragic.

"It's been really difficult trying to explain Jack's gone, and are we ever going to see him again?" said Lewis. "They're heartbroken. I'm heartbroken. My husband's heartbroken."
