Golden Retriever Brings Toys to Intruder During San Diego Home Break-In
In San Diego, a man broke into a family's home by climbing through an open second-floor window and stayed inside for about 30 minutes, helping himself to food and even taking a nap. During the incident, the family's four-year-old golden retriever, Nash, repeatedly brought the intruder toys, treating him like a playmate rather than a threat. The dog's owner, Dante Rowley, noted Nash was "not the greatest guard dog." Nash also greeted arriving police officers with a toy, showing friendliness throughout.
