So there I was...........

[WILCO]

Standing in a small shop, looking for information on a piece of equipment.
Sign said where to inquire and the door was open. Walked a good distance in and still nobody was around.
Called out "Hello?" and a very large pitbull answered. First thing I did was look to see if there was a chain.
Nope! Second thing I did was wish for a pistol! Third thing I did was just stand there as the dog came running up. Little voice said "WILCO, I bet you smell like bacon!". Everything worked out at the last minute.
The dog stopped at my feet as I held out my hand for him to sniff. I now have a new friend.

Do you think the shop owner will miss him?

Best watchdogs are the ones trained to let you enter, but then won't allow you to leave without their owner's consent.

Take my word for it. Wolves and wolfdogs are not good watchdogs. They'll protect their pack, but throw them a steak and they'll show you where the TV is and wag their tail as you as you leave with it.
