Well, even if the victim went with you voluntarily, does it still count as theft?
Owners may be confused when they discover that their 7-year-old neighbor has “stole” their husky and replaced it with a stuffed dog.

The girl changes Gunner’s collar — from a “Mama’s boy” collar to an “Olivia’s boy” collar — and places a stuffed husky next to Gunner and asks the dog to come with her.
“Gunnar was really struggling with whether he should really go with her or wait for me to go outside like he usually does.” Sullivan wrote in the caption.
After some hesitation and barking, Gunnar relented and went with Olivia.
Sullivan then “confronted” the girl playing with Gunner, who asked Olivia, “Who’s that?” “Did you steal my dog? Did you change his collar?” The girl gave me a mischievous look.
She explains: “When the backyard camera alerted me and I realized what she was doing, I was going to leave it be. I was laughing in the house and I think Gunner heard it too. That’s why he was so hesitant to go in with her.”
“You can’t call it ‘stealing’ when he did it of his own accord.” Sullivan laughs.
