Let's talk about police procedure.

8. From the vantage point it looked like someone was walking on property

and then walking out. I thought the police would want to find out who it was because maybe they saw something that could help, or perhaps it was a person who was carrying a sick dog off property. Either option was worth investigating.

In the end, I downloaded video editing software and panned into the section in question. Took me a few looks before I got another idea. Maybe it was just someone from the house who was walking out to look for the dog because they just noticed it had gone missing. So, in other words, I had more questions to pursue to determine what was going on.

I made copies of all the video I had and was prepared to hand it to the neighbor. He returned my call and told me that the dog came back. It was wet, but not dirty. He can't understand where the dog had been because we had a major storm come in the area that evening. His best guess was that it went into the neighbor's yard and fell asleep and did not hear him when he went to call.

Weird. But, since I had him on the phone I told him about the neighbor that trespasses on my yard in the morning and explained why the loss of his dog concerned me. He agreed it was strange behavior.
