Creep Gets Woman’s Phone Number From Her Dog’s Collar, Asks Her Out

A North Carolina man obtained the phone number of a TikTok star  by taking a photo of her dog’s collar.

Michelle Kimball was out walking her German shepherd, Nilla, near her home when she says she was stopped by a friendly-looking man.

He pet Kimball’s canine before asking to take a photo of the adorable animal. Kimball thought nothing of the seemingly innocent encounter and continued along her way.

But just hours later, the blonde bartender received a text message from a stranger trying to chat her up.

She said, “‘I don’t know anybody by that name? How did you get my phone number?’. He said, ‘Oh, I got it off your dog’s collar.’”

Kimball was rattled by the canine creeper and is now warning other pet owners to be vigilant.

According to a safety expert, pervs paw their way into obtaining private details from dog owners all the time, and Kimball’s experience is not all that uncommon.

Predators ‘have no limits. They have no boundaries.”
