Shoplifting Dog

Angela Hunt, my favorite author, at A Life in Pages had this fascinating video clip of a Utah store with a shoplifting problem on her blog last week. I thought that you HAD to see it for yourself.

It only takes 1:45 minutes.






And for a little chuckle, I give you...



Donna at Squawmama gave a GREAT BIG HUG to her blogging friends. Ruthie has shared it, and I do too. Please take it and place it on your blog to remember that you are loved.



Bridget from My Silly blog told me how to make a heart with a Mac. "Pull down the "Edit" menu and at the bottom there is a "Special Characters" option. Open that window and under "Miscellaneous" you just click on the heart in the third row of characters and it will pop into your comment window as seen above." It works! ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ Thanks, Bridget!

That video was great. It made me smile. I wonder if any one offered to pay for the raw hide bone to keep the dog out of the slammer? ☺

take care,
Dawn

Good Morning Sally
THAT video is wonderful. I just chuckled. How did that dog know to do that..I understand he could smell but still. He is a well trained dog and he sure scurried out of that store quickly!
Great...thank you for sharing.
Have a lovely day.

What a great video! And what a savvy dog. Wonder if he's been hitting any other stores? Thanks for the chuckle.

Too cute.

I love the PC one too. Some computer folks DO need to get a life, but I hope most of us will get Valentines on our own. :)

Darlene said...

Morning Sally,

That dog is GREAT! It is funny that he could go snatch the bone and get out of there.

I hate that you can't make the ♥!!!

Bridget said...

♥ On a Mac you can pull down the "Edit" menu and at the bottom there is a "Special Characters" option. Open that window and under "Miscellaneous" you just click on the heart in the third row of characters and it will pop into your comment window as seen above. I know it is not quite as easy as the alt thing but it not as complicated as it sounds. You could also just copy and paste it from somewhere else ❣

p.s. I ♥ dogs❣

Bridget said...

How funny...I was on your blog at the same time you were at mine.

Shimmy Mom said...

And thank you Sally! I finally know how to make ♥s. It's not quite as easy as on a PC, but I'll take it!

I don't know how I missed seeing that dog on the news (I do live in Utah, and I totally recognized the reporter.) I'm going to show it to my hubby when he gets home.

*hugs*

Baba said...

Hi Sally, this dog video is so cute..one bone missing is not going to break the store...the poor thing is hungry...thanks for sharing with us. Hugs, Baba

Bridget said...

You are welcome! A Mac can do anything a PC can do (and usually better but don't tell the PC people I said that! lol)

Cathy said...

The video was so cute. Thanks for the smiles.

nikkicrumpet said...

HAH I'm so glad you shared the video...how funny is that. I better not let the boys watch it....they'd end up living a life of crime for sure!

The Raggedy Girl said...

I cannot believe that doggie knew exactly what he wanted and how to get it. Of course he couldn't pay for it, no pockets!

thanks for the funny video!! thanks also for the "heart" tip. I did purchase a MAC and am trying to learn it in-between twin duties!! HA!! Have a great day!!

Sweetie said...

Sally - The video is hilarious. I'm still laughing! I also enjoyed your cartoon. It is cold and snowing today in PA. It must be wonderful to be in Florida. I talked to my best friend that lives in Florida and she loved telling me how beautiful it is there. Did I miss instructions for inserting a heart with a PC? Also, I've been trying to figure out how to put a line through words. I'm feeling very PC illiterate today.
Hugs,
Sweetie

Hi, I've dropped in from Diane's at Crafty Passions, this is my first visit.
Wish my doggie would learn a trade! Knowing him, he'd only steal what HE liked!

Killlashandra said...

The shoplifting dog is pretty amazing. What a neat video. Maybe he's been inside one too many Petco stores. :)

Betsy Banks Adams said...
