Straight out of a bad comedy/heist movie, a jewel shop owners dog has eaten a $20,000 diamond. George Kaufman of Rockville, Maryland was meeting with his business partner. As always he had his best bud the pup Sollie with him.
While going over some inventory Kaufman accidentally dropped the 3-carat diamond near the dog who quickly snapped it up. With a call to the vet the advice was that he would have to wait and let nature take its course. So for three days he meticulously went through the doggie droppings until he was eventually able to retrieve the stone. He cleaned it off, hopefully extremely well, and returned it to the shop.
“When we took a walk in the morning and evening I collected and went through everything. It wasn’t glamorous, but you gotta do what you gotta do.”
