A family decided to get a rescue puppy following an incident where an intruder was discovered in their kitchen. The mother of the family reportedly woke in the middle of the night to find an individual in the kitchen, who then left.
Two days after the intrusion, a two-month-old rescue puppy was brought home. The puppy, named Jerry, had a black, brown, and white coat and was described as having traces of beagle and labrador.
The family did not experience another burglary while Jerry was with them, although the author noted this may have been due to luck.
