Nothing hurts more than losing your dog.
What’s the most miserable feeling for the dog owners? It’s losing their dog. A dog is the most precious thing for a dog owner and they cannot afford to lose their dog. A dog owner cannot even imagine spending one day without their dog. What if someone enters your property without your permission and takes your dog away again without your permission and gives it away to someone else? The frustration would be real, right? A Reddit user (21 F) has had a dog for 12 years and one day she came back home to find out that her lovely doggo is missing. She did everything to find her dog but couldn’t find it. One day, when she went door to door to ask about her dog, she got to knew that her new neighbor invaded her property and took her dog and gave it away to someone else. Scroll down to read the complete story.

How would you feel if someone trespasses your property and takes your dog away thinking it’s a stray?

OP (21F) has a 21-year-old dog, Mickey.

OP has trained her dog to walk. Mickey has never been away from OP for more than 24 hours.

A new family has moved in OP’s neighborhood.

OP was not expecting this. One day, she came home and found out that Mickey was not in the yard.

OP couldn’t have it. She went door to door to find Mickey.

OP went to the new neighbor’s house and D told her about the dog M found.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
M told her how she found a dog in OP’s yard.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
M gave OP’s dog to one of her friends thinking it was a stray.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
OP got her dog back and came home with her dog.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
OP got a screenshot of a group where M and TM were talking about how OP should not have taken the dog from them.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
M and TM manipulated the whole story and turned it the other way around. OP decided to confront M and D.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
OP was angry at the fact that they wanted turns for her puppy and she did say a few curse words while talking to them.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
M took it again to Facebook and talked about how OP has caused them emotional stress.

Update of the story:

The post went viral and people had a lot of questions. So she had to post another update post.

All of the OP’s neighbors know that Mickey belongs to OP.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
There is no leash law in OP’s neighborhood and all of her neighbors were comfortable with her walking her dog without a leash.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
Mickey is professionally trained and OP has never let him go out of her sight.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
OP suspects that M never wanted to tell OP about her dog. It was D who told her.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
OP never wanted to file a report because if she does, M’s kids and her husband would also be affected by it.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
OP has finally decided to file a report against them.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
OP has always someone watching his dog or she would leave him alone only if someone is going to get back in 30 minutes.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
OP does not have a lock on her gate because she never needed one. She has always lived in the same neighborhood and nothing like this has happened before.
Credits: u/cwithoutc
Mickey wears a collar and has a dog tag. How can someone even think that it was a stray?
Credits: u/cwithoutc
We don’t believe that M thought it was a stray dog when D has already seen OP walking the dog. Also, the dog was in OP’s yard and was wearing a collar and had a dog tag. Which stray dog has a collar and a dog tag? She probably gave away the dog to someone else so that she couldn’t get caught if someone investigates. It’s ridiculous that she committed theft and then manipulated the whole story to make OP look the bad one. Scroll down to read what people think about it.
This person would make a police report.
M committed theft. OP should press charges against her.
M is the AH for taking away OP’s dog from her yard and acting like she owned a turn.
This Reddit user thinks OP is not a responsible Akita owner.
Things OP should do right away:
OP should not walk his dog without a leash.
ESH. OP is the AH for not putting a leash on her dog and OP’s neighbors are AH for stealing OP’s dog.
NTA. M stole the dog on purpose.

OP did right for reporting her neighbors because if she did not, her neighbors could do it again and turn the story into something worse. Comment down to let us know what would have you done if someone trespasses your yard and steals your dog? Comment down to share what do you think OP is the AH, NTA or ESH?
