Talk about a Grinch. Burglar steals family's Christmas gifts -- and their dog
Here's a story out of Texas about a family who lost not only all their Christmas gifts, but also their dog, Candy, a 2-year-old teacup Yorkshire terrier who was taken by a burglar.
Most of the stolen gifts belonged to 13-year-old Cameron Rusaw. But Cameron, who was too upset to go to school Monday, said he misses his dog more than anything.
"I'm not worried about any gifts," he said. "I just want my dog back."

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.
