This isn’t an isolated incident: thieves across LA, including in Mar Vista and Encino, are increasingly targeting guard dogs with pepper spray to bypass them. Thankfully, the dog survived unharmed, though the owner was shaken. Detectives are investigating as part of a growing wave of Valley burglaries — with over 100 arrests made in LA alone last month.
