In San Diego, a golden retriever named Nash was filmed trying to play with an intruder who broke into his home last month. Instead of alerting authorities or protecting the property, Nash approached the stranger with a toy and wagged his tail. The homeowners were alerted by their Ring app while they were away and contacted police, who arrested the suspect without incident. Police footage shows Nash greeting both the intruder and responding officers in a friendly manner.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
