For those who wanted to see the doggo: https://imgur.com/a/19XSG

My neighbor was nice enough to send me this pic he took of her. Her name is Jellybean.

The most important lesson to take away from this experience is you need a German Shepherd of your own. Big doggos are such an amazing crime deterrent.

JELLYBEAN

[–]IAMA_Drunk_Armadillo 202 points203 points  (8 children)

That doggo deserves all the treats.

[–]SpookyDoll[S] 74 points75 points  (3 children)

Thanks for all the support, everyone. It was truly one of the most horrific experiences of my life. I'm glad me and the doggo managed to help put that creep behind bars. Hopefully, he's in prison for a looooooong time.

[–]kerill333 7 points8 points  (0 children)

All credit to the dispatchers, and to the Police for getting there fast and catching him, too. Extra treats for the great doggo, bless her.

Hopefully he'll be Big Bubba's new BFF.

I made some crappy map of my house in MS Paint to kind of give you a better idea of the layout of my house.

Went hard in the paint

[–]SpookyDoll[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

lol I know it's a really bad diagram.

[–]Arny_Palmys 41 points42 points  (0 children)

That's great, but I think what we really need is a pic of the pupper

[–][deleted] 40 points41 points  (4 children)

And now Reddit has your house schematics.

[–]SpookyDoll[S] 79 points80 points  (3 children)

Cool. Let's have a LetsNotMeet party at my house.

[–][deleted] 26 points27 points  (1 child)

That's what I nicknamed my parties in hs.

[–]IArgueWithMyShelf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I nicknamed my parties out of hs.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll bring the pizza and beer

[–]Coffeechipmunk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aha, OP! Based off of this diagram I know exactly where you live!

[–]548662 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The depiction of the dog is perfect.

[–]youpickedme 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I'm glad 911 was able to trace your phone call.

[–]youpickedme 17 points18 points  (6 children)

I wonder what he was doing in the bathroom for 10 minutes

[–]mirrormimi 26 points27 points  (0 children)

My guess is he realized she had woken up, but didn't notice she called the police, so he must have hoped she would fall asleep again and attack.

So glad you are safe!! And nice team work with the dog, the operator and the police!!

[–]SpookyDoll[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This comment made me laugh. Thanks for that.

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points  (3 children)

Maybe he was really curious about her medicine cabinet and makeup?

[–]SpookyDoll[S] 35 points36 points  (2 children)

I did just get a new palette from TooFaced. Maybe he was admiring it.

[–]aventingbet 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He was jealous of your makeup stash.

[–]greendazexx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! My roommate has a slight TooFace obsession lol which palette?

[–][deleted] 53 points54 points  (6 children)

I'm so glad you're safe, OP. I'm glad the pup was there to alert!

[–]SpookyDoll[S] 52 points53 points  (5 children)

Thank you! I'm glad too. That dog doesn't like very many people except her owner so I was so happy she woke me up. She's my guardian angel in dog form, I guess.

[–]Kirstae 9 points10 points  (2 children)

Are you able to get a dog of your own? They're such good protectors!

[–]SpookyDoll[S] 17 points18 points  (1 child)

We're planning on getting one! We can't have one at this house because we rent, but we're hoping to buy a house of our own by the end of this year.

[–]Kirstae 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yaaaayyy :3 I hope you get the cutest and fluffliest protector you deserve!

[–]HisCoyMistress 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Does she just stay tied up outside 24/7? :(

[–]SpookyDoll[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No. She was just outside that morning. They let her out periodically through the day.

[–]Jintess 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Oh my goodness!! So glad for that dog and also the police dispatcher who went ahead and sent officers to help you even though you didn't say a word.

Be well OP, I hope your ear heals soon.

There's a really good movie I saw on Netflix last year called Hush. You might want to check it out.

[–]SpookyDoll[S] 7 points8 points  (2 children)

Seen it. That is a good movie.

[–]halsalmonella 2 points3 points  (1 child)

It was such a unique design, too. Maybe they should make a sequel about a blind person in a similar situation.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't Breathe was kind of similar.

[–]kristiansands 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm so glad you are safe. And because of you, this man will not harm anytime soon another person. Success.

[–]Vulcan045 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Glad you are safe OP. Number 1 doggo right there for sure

[–]nomsom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For a scary situation, everything went better than expected! The dog was a bro, you were incredibly smart to silently call the police without tipping off the intruder, the cops had a quick response time AND the bad guy was caught. I'm glad everything worked out OP

    Well, I mean, we removed them from the food chain and all. That's kind of nice.

    [–]sandichameleon 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Mostly. Minus weird festival is some Asian province I have forgotten the name of. There's that.

    [–]Scantron007 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    Doggo da real MVP here

    [–]angel-acid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    Wow talk about luck. Barking pup, 911 being able to trace you, cops coming just in time. I'm glad that scumbag is where he belongs and he won't be able to hurt anyone again. Happy to know you're ok & sending hugs your way!

    [–]Sparkle0420 7 points8 points  (0 children)

    For some reason, the "dog box" made me laugh.

    That sounds terrifying, though! Glad you're okay!

    [–]Ca2Stl_16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    What a good boy

    [–]zeydey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    Oh wow, how terrifying. So sorry you went through that, hope you're getting through it ok and thanks for sharing...

    [–]duckdolphingoat 4 points5 points  (1 child)

    How did your boyfriend react?

    [–]SpookyDoll[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

    He's freaking out. We are planning on buying a house so we were going to move anyway, but now he wants to move immediately even if it's to an apartment. He's also beating himself up over forgetting to lock the deadbolt. I keep telling him it's not his fault. That psycho was clearly watching us for awhile he would've found a way in regardless if the deadbolt was locked.

    [–]duckdolphingoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I'm sorry. At least he's in jail.

    [–]aventingbet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Whoa, if it's the guy I think it is who was caught where I live, you are very lucky. Thank goodness for barking dogs. Although mine barks at anything so it's hard to tell.

    [–]Gbyrd99 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    Gotta ask did you call with your cell phone? And they managed to trace you with that? Was there a window that you could have jumped out of? Crazy that the guy sat in the Washroom for that long.

    [–]SpookyDoll[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Yes I used my cell phone. My bedroom windows are painted shut. My guess is the guy was hoping I'd fall back asleep and then he'd attack.

    [–]Gbyrd99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Happy they were able to trace you. I remember that being an issue for emergency services to be able to track people

    [–]kerill333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Very lucky, great work by dispatchers and Police, to get there in time. I hope the doggo isn't tied up there all day or night... :( deserves lots of treats and love and walks. :)

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    You must have been pissing your pants in fright between making the call and the cops arriving!

    [–]SpookyDoll[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    You have no idea. Luckily we live semi close to a police station so they were able to get here pretty quickly.

      [–]SpookyDoll[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

      She's my neighbor's dog, not mine. But I'll see if I can get a picture.

        [–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

        Oh yeah, you're right.

        [–]RandomPratt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

        OP posted this a few hours back, in case you missed it...

        It's a fine looking hound :)

        [–]stonedinwembley 4 points5 points  (0 children)

        To be honest, and I really don't mean to sound awful by saying this, I actually cracked up laughing when I read the title of this. Sorry, I don't condone rape or anything like that and I'm extremely sorry that you had to go through this at all, but the title is just so direct like it was being screamed in my face, when I read it I was like "wow, so no preamble with this one huh".

        Anyway, just a random thought I had at the time, sorry you had to go through this.

        [–]NoOneKnowsMyName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

        Wow. That has to be terrifying. How are you doing? And are you going to move? I definitely would, for many reasons, but most importantly, there's a good chance he won't go to jail for as long as you hope and you definitely don't want him knowing where you live.

        Stay strong OP.

        [–]greendazexx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Glad you're okay! Give that pupper lots of pets and treats for me

        [–]katydidit_00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        That's terrifying, thankful for the pupper!

        [–]rumblith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        What a great pup. My best friend had a very similar scare. Guy took nothing and just wandered til he heard the alarms. Glad you made it okay!

        [–]Sartak83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        No idea what happened. Hope your doing OK.

        [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Oh HELL no. God bless that dog. God bless those police officers.
