Hmmmmmmmm, maybe he likes dogs and felt sorry for this one?.....Nah, there's gotta be another insidious reason.

You’d feel differently if it were your dog he stole.
I had a neighbor (about 2 miles away) bring a great big Golden Retriever to my place a few weeks ago and tell me I had to watch my dogs better (I have 6) and not let them roam all over the mountain, maybe lock them up.
I told her that was a real good idea and I would give it consideration.
She tried to return the Golden to me and was pretty pissed off that I couldn’t take care of my animals better, and told me so.
I told her “that’s all fine and good, but that’s NOT my dog”.
I also told her that if she couldn’t find the owner to bring the dog back to my place, she would make a great addition to the family.
All my dogs know what the property limits are and know where home is if they go to far!
