Dude sells neighbor's dog at yard sale

Dachshund puppies can cost as much as $200, but last Saturday, a couple got a good deal when they bought one for 15 bucks at a yard sale. The problem is the dog didn't belong to the man who sold it.

"This is John Johns. ... I need to tell you what happened to your dog." Ann Loveless (the dog's owner) says, "And he said that he wanted to confess that he had sold Kringle in a yard sale."

Johns wasn't home Monday, but his wife Debra explains how it went down, "We put him in the backyard and he was nipping through the fence at our neighbor’s dog and my husband didn't like that and by the time I got out of the shower, he had sold the dog and gave the dog to this lady."

Debra Johns says both she and her husband feel terrible about what's happened. Debra explains, "I said John what you did was wrong, ethically wrong." Police say Loveless could press charges but instead she just wants her dog back. Article here.
