I’m sure it’s not him, but he kind of sounds like TV chef Grant Crilly after smoking a giant doobie.

If someone is going commit crimes, I’d rather see that person loving on a doggo than the alternative. But someone needs to inform him that you can both love dogs and not be a criminal.

I think perhaps an already established familiarity here? Landscaper? Dog seemed conflicted when dude left with the loot.

I hate bike thieves as much as the next person who’s had a bike or bikes nicked, but maybe don’t leave your garage door open?

No way they’re getting that bike back. That dude is a dead ringer for like 80% of the male population of San Diego.

Some, especially older, garage door openers are easy to spoof. Search Mattel “Im me” toy and “open sesame” if you’re interested

Wait until they find the desiccated corpses of previous bicycle thieves who thought the dog was so cute that they were unable to leave and eventually died of dehydration.

Guy was all over that dog. Swab dog for non-family DNA in case it can come in handy later? :wink:

As pointed out above, they’re not going to catch this guy. But if they do, I’m picturing a police line-up involving the dog and it’s adorable. “This guy! I love playing with this guy! Hi hoomin!”
