Buddy, a beloved pet dog who was stolen by a 17-time convicted felon, was found by the Tacoma Police Department (TPD).

Buddy, a three-year-old “micro bully dog,” escaped his family’s yard this past summer. A neighbor reported seeing Buddy run down the street and caught him. Another neighbor, named Jose Haughton, said he would return Buddy to his family.

Video evidence from Haughton’s home, a transitional housing facility, showed that the dog was inside the house, but Haughton denied ever having the dog. Another video showed what appeared to be a dog covered in a blanket being taken to a car.
