“After he was accidentally let out of his home, Max walked for 2 hours to a local convenience store where workers had fed him a breakfast burrito before. The store hadn't opened yet when he got there, but Max was found the next morning patiently waiting outside for his well-earned snack. His GPS collar told the entire story.”

This is Max. He snuck out in the middle of the night and walked 5 miles to get a breakfast burrito.

Good boy, Max! He was hunting and gathering for the fam. The store just didn't understand enough to give him takeout to bring home.
I'm gonna save this for the next time I encounter someone who can't wrap their head around the idea that dogs likely self-domesticated
My dog remembers every single store that has ever given him a treat, and will drag me to all of them.
