To catch a predator, canine style.

Disregard my last post if that's true.

On topic, cameras and a solid padlock would be a start. Are the dogs microchipped?

Microchipped for identification, not for GPS.

Is there any chance it was a prank? Buddy thought it'd be funny when he was drunk, woke up with your dog, panicked, said nothing and returned it?

I tend to do this with other's girlfriends.

My friends know me well enough to not enter my property w/o identification and lough wistles so they dont get shot/murdered. It had to be someone that didnt know me. Really think its one of the 3 neighbors, probably one with a stay at home wife, as she would hear the dog during the day and probably be the most annoyed.

that looks like a Sheppard puppy and from my experience, those dogs love being outside at night. Ours is happiest when she can lay on the back lawn at night and "guard" our house.

I think its a cross breed, but majority of it looks like a Sheppard puppy. I have one myself thats 5 months old, desires attention at all times but loves to patrol the house so its outside most of the time. German Sheppard have to be the only dog that will actually "Work for food", even if there work is simply barking at the cat that enters the yard lol

During the next meeting, mention that you bought a shotgun because some illegal immigrants, the cancer of this nation, trespassed your premises and you're afraid for your life. Use derogatory language such as: Them negroes, fill in the blank w/e, when referring to other ethnicities.

The problem is, I dont want to harrass the non guilty neighbors with alot of noise, so I need to find a way to fish out the crook w/o making myself the neighborhood asshole. Not to mention my property value might go down if the 4 houses around me suddently and mysteriously burn down.

LOL Excellent point although the concept of not being an asshole is somewhat foreign to me. I just wanted you to burn down the houses for the POIDH factor and for the lulz, to be honest. Sadly, I know first hand how that property value shit is Q.Q Curses, foiled again by logic!

Well played lol. "Oh btw, you were right about Sara, she is like a hoover..." I actually heard that line from 2 people that used to be friends before said quote.

[Anyway]

I'm going to assume that the dog is one that never stops barking due to your housewife comment. Which would then lead me to wonder why you didn't hear your dog barking at your neighbor's house if they took it.

Dog inside maybe?

[Anyway]

I don't know about you, but I can hear my neighbor's hell minion no matter where the hell he is. Inside, outside, buried in my backyard, etc.

That means it is a loud dog then. And it could be that with the dog inside the house, she doesn't make as much noise because she isn't stuck outside all night.

you also have to figure, Sheppard's are extremely extremely smart. They will do anything to get what they want, my 5 month old has climbed over a 6 foot fence before......so might even be possible the dog just got out >.>

[Izzy]

My golden retriever learned how to lift up the two latches on the fence, then push the door open and walk out. It's possible a dog just outsmarted a physicist!

[alt]

How high is the fence?

Believe it or not we had a Lab that learned it could jump from this rock next to our fence, which gave him probably an extra foot of clearance, and jump over our fence that was probably 5 ft. or so high.

Also had another German Shephard that learned to open slider glass doors >.>

[zoobernut]

My pit mix never tried to open doors and just yesterday randomly she figured out how to open the sliding glass door in our house. Startled us because the door opened and she was behind the couch and we could not see what happened.

Wow, redneck alert

[The_OG_Nelta]

police? lol

[Ryushii]

Is anyone else disappointed the title of this thread isn't "How to catch a predator, doggie style"? Just thought I'd put that out there...

P.S. Why do you care so much? Just find ways to prevent it/catch the assholes if they do it again, and move on with your life. No need to start conflict just to catch a one-time thief.

[Dmitry]

If I had a puppy that cute and someone took her I would raise hell to no end.

[Azalee]

I would die if someone took my new puppy. ;_;

Well that and the fact she is worth $3,500 lmao.
