When an Intruder Invaded a Golden Retriever's Home, He Just Tried to Play
The man allegedly stayed inside for 30 minutes, ate food and napped while Nash repeatedly brought him toys, police said.
- Earlier this month in Sherman Heights, San Diego, a 4-year-old golden retriever named Nash greeted an intruder with toys instead of guarding the home, treating him like an unexpected playmate.
- Owner Dante Rowley watched the break-in via his home security app while out of town during a heat wave, as the intruder allegedly entered through an open second-floor window.
- Inside the home, the intruder remained for around 30 minutes, reportedly removing his shoes and napping while eating food; Nash repeatedly offered him toys to play.
- Police apprehended the man after he attempted to flee through a bathroom window; Rowley told NBC 7, "Nash is not the greatest guard dog. We thought he was going to bark at people and he did the exact opposite."
- The unusual reaction soon caught the attention of social media users, many of whom found the dog's friendliness amusing, while the suspect faced burglary charges and outstanding warrants.
