On July 9th, 2023, Daniel adopted a dog named Music from Longmont Humane Society in Longmont, Colorado. This announcement from Daniel has sparked outrage in the subreddit, with many users demanding the dog to be back in the hands of the shelter due to his inability to financially support himself, let alone an animal.

Claims of Financial Stability

This event has sparked a lot of understandable outrage from the community, however Daniel remains adamant that he is financially sound enough for a dog.

Rescue Attempts

Ox

Soon after it was discovered that Daniel did in fact get a dog, Ox posted on Reddit asking for Daniel's location so that he could rescue the dog stating that he will get to Colorado by motorcycle.[1] He posted this July 9th at 10:00pm Larson Time (Mountain Daylight Time).

Daniel should not have a dog whatsoever. I am not sure how he got it.

I am worried about what sick little fucks may get him to do to the dog or what he may do during a crisis, like beat it.

I’ll go over there as the stars have seemingly aligned again. I am traveling back across country in the rv and had some shit go down about 45 mins from Denver.

The next day, at 7:37am, Ox made another post stating that he was charging his bike and that he would be leaving soon. He also asked the community not to berate the rescue as some of the subreddit members have started to do.

Charging up my bike rn. Got it off the rack and seems I left the key in too long getting it on there. Should be good to go in a bit. Might see some rain here as well so seeing how things go. Hopefully can leave soon.

Please do not harm the rep of the rescue, this will harm the chances for the dogs they are trying to save. Letting dan walk out with that dog is wild though and begs the question of someone assisting him. If someone makes contact, see what can be done to return the dog.

At 10:25am Ox posted that he had "touched down" in Colorado and was now looking for Daniel. Asking the Daniel Larson subreddit for his current location. [2]

A little over an hour later, at 11:49am, Ox posts "Can’t find Daniel I have to go back to LA now. I looked everywhere.". This post is heavily down voted unlike the previous posts. [3]

Ox makes another post at 2:13pm, "Dan is gone. I have someone helping, he is headed to Denver to see bob. Took the train I think it’s why he’s silent. Yes, I am here." along with a photo of his bike on a street in Longmont, CO. [4] In the comments of the post Ox states that he will try again either tomorrow (July 11th) or the day after (July 12th) indicating that it was difficult to pinpoint an exact location.

I’m gonna try again tomorrow or the next day. I need a good spotting or exact location next time. Can’t blow it. I drove all over today. -YungDaddyOx

After Ox's "Can’t find Daniel I have to go back to LA now. I looked everywhere." post KeanuReeveswithagun left a comment

It's ok. I will pickup your failure. I live close to Longmont and I will find him. -KeanuReeveswithagun

The Reddit user posted a couple of additional posts attempting to locate Daniel and an "En Route" post with a picture of a Longmont road sign at around 1:38pm [5] After Ox's "Dan is gone." post they posted a final update at 2:52pm

I'm sorry to report that we missed him. We made it to Longmont but we just missed him. I'm hoping that someone can confront him in Denver. Sorry guys. -KeanuReeveswithagun
