Forgive me for saying this, but to me, it sounds a bit dumb and funny. "I stole a dog, lol". Personally, i would be
*** off and out looking for our dog.
Also, if people say that someone has a dog, find that person and tell the nice men in blue, also known as the police. Either that or visit the guy with a gun in hand. Doesn't have to be real.
I hope it comes back. I really do.
Watch your language.
