You know what dogs like? Other dogs! What could be more delightful than to follow a dog and, alas! MORE DOGS!!
I've done this for 59 dogs now. The world will tremble upon facing my canine army!
Yes! If I found a person in distress on the other side I would be disapointed. "Shit..it's just a kid having a Seizure... I was hoping for puppies"
Actually ... a suspicious amount of animals fall within that definition now that I think about it.
Cats, birbs, basically anything fren-shaped that doesn't show signs of distress by my presence.
If they want to be petted I'm just gonna sit down and make it a day.
tbf if a fucking lion crossed my path and instead of killing me waited for me to follow I would.
Yeah, he's probably got a legendary quest for you.
Leads you to lion's den. Other lions: "door dash is here!"
That's why I steer clear from nature. I'm a very easy pray
I prey you stay safe!
"Oh sweet.....I don't have to carry dinner", thinks the lion.
He actually belonged to your mum
Oh cute that dear is approaching me. I'm sure it's not gonna have rabies or anything of the sort.
That's why you jump on a raised object so it can't attack you and check it's inventory before assuming it's safe.
1: "oh look a puppy!" 2: "watch out honey, he's got a knife" dog: "wha- no no I don't" 🗡️
Doesn't everyone?
HHIIIAAAGGH
Don't forget to use their phone and call for help, after which you can put the phone in your pocket and enjoy a free phone.
What if I don't need help?
😂
They've locked down phones too much nowadays to make stealing them worth it.
People who need a service dog probably aren't that tech saavy (if they are elderly) and thus not have a lockscreen, or if they got the service dog because of blindness, they probably don't want to deal with the inconvienience of a lockscreen (accessibility features might be limited if the phone is in BFU mode), so theft from a person using a service dog (however dispicable that action is) would actually be a great chance of hitting "jackpot" (unlocked phone that you can sell).
And if they do use a screen lock, they probably also have biometrics to make it easier to unlock. Grab their finger or use their face and unlock it and go reset their google/icloud account using those same biometrics. Then you can use the new password to remove the account from the device. Voila, activatiom locks are gone!
Also, even if you can't unlock it, the parts might still be worth something. You just have to do more crime to make the same amount of money.
This information is for entertainment purposes only, please do not steal phones from the average person, especially not disabled person using a service animal.
(instead, go shoplift from corporate chain stores)
That's way, way too much what ifs. Just go up, steal the phone, and scream at them WHAT'S YOUR FUCKING PIN.
This is not a situation I have thought about at length. Absolutely not.
(I'm disabled ♿)
If you kick them real hard they're more likely to tell you their pin
If any bystander asks, just tell them you are doing CPR v2: Mugging Boogaloo
This happened to me once in real life, sorta. I was several miles deep into a trail along the base of a mountain when a couple of loose dogs and I crossed paths. Of course there was no cellphone reception, so I was a bit at a loss as to what I should do. Neither one of them would actually come up close to me, but they were close enough that I could see they didn't have collars. I feel like there's a learning opportunity there, always keep your dogs on a leash when you're out in public.
Anyway, first I tried to follow them as best I could, thinking they might pull a Lassie and lead me to their owner or owners. Maybe it was someone in need of help, after all. After what felt like hours of walking, still no sign of the owners. At this point I was getting tired and running low on water, plus it was getting late and starting to sprinkle.
I decided to turn back. Figured I'd call the cops or something once I got back to my car and could get close enough into town for my phone to start working again. Go figure, the dogs followed me. That whole time I thought I was following them. Anyway, get to the stairs leading up to the parking lot, and this lady at the top belted out a screech that could have shattered adamantium. Apparently the dogs were "wild coyotes". Like I was supposed to know that somehow?
I've been around coyotes my entire life and usually when you see them, they're already high-tailing the other direction. Either you have some super-tame coyotes or those weren't coyotes.
If you're going to be venturing out into coyote country alone you should at least be able to differentiate them from dogs. Not safe for you or the coyotes.
I'm pretty sure it was just a joke...probably
Be out at a store
Approached by service dog without owner
Grab the handle on its back so it can lead me
Takes me home
MFW I'm now some dog's pet because I followed it home

Or just take the leash and take the dog home.
