This story aired in Los Angeles yesterday. News showed pic of big ass dog door. It was almost half the size of the entire door. Why even bother locking door.

The thieves left behind footprints and fingerprints. A neighbors security camera captured images of the thieves. For two hours, they carried stolen items out of the home and into a getaway car. Detectives are searching for four burglars, possibly teens.
The family said they wanted to share their story not for donations but to see justice served and warn others.
Gmelich said the doggie door the thieves used to break into his home belongs to his 100-pound Guffman, who, despite what his size may suggest, is more of a lover than a fighter.
Once they got in, he probably befriended them because he's a friendly guy, Gmelich said of his dog.

When someone, or a group, acts as though they are doing something amazing, or phenomenal, or "really meaningful" or important, when to everyone else they are just humiliating themselves.
Based on the characters in the movie, "Waiting for Guffman," or any of Christopher Guest's ensemble films.

(48,181 posts)At least that's what they are here in new england. Then again raccoons are basically feral burglars, with rabies too, so perhaps they have a point.
