Golden retriever fetches stolen handbag
A German golden retriever lived up to its name after it chased a mugger and returned a handbag to his female victim.
The dog and his owner were out walking in Berg-am-Laim when the 51-year-old woman had her handbag snatched and began shouting for help.
The passer-by sent dog Sizko off after the mugger, who quickly dropped the handbag when he felt the dog snapping at his heels.
A police spokesman said the golden retriever had guarded the bag until the lady caught up to collect her belongings.
The mugger has not been caught.
----------------------------------------------
Here in the US the mugger would have sued the dog owner for
Undue stress,
Attempted bodily harm,
Psychiatrist bills,
Permanent emotional damage,
A new pair of underwear when the mugger realized
he was being chased.
The bag owner would have been sued for
holding the bag in a provacative way,
Screaming too loud and
making him unable to relate to women carrying purses.
