Many weeks before the adoption occurred, Daniel stated that he wanted to adopt a dog and several other pets. Many people considered the odds of Daniel ever adopting any sort of animal to be very slim, as Daniel cannot properly care for himself, and his [[Homeless Arc|homelessness would definitely bar him from adopting any sort of animal.]] On many occasions, he has said that he has security and a team of people dedicated to protecting him. Daniel wanting to adopt a dog to protect him fell in line with these delusions. | Many weeks before the adoption occurred, Daniel stated that he wanted to adopt a dog and several other pets.

During this time, Daniel had a [[Management|manager]] by the name of [[Warren]], although little is known about him. [[Warren]] most likely told Daniel to keep his location a secret. This can be inferred from the amount of times Daniel was found lying about his location to throw people off of his scent, such as lying about being in motel rooms. Additionally, Daniel was still using [[Cameo Arc|Cameo]], a video making service where people would give him money for him to make custom videos. This gave him plenty of money to adopt a dog.[[File:Longmont Worker Testimony.png|thumb| | During this time, Daniel had a [[Management|manager]] by the name of [[Warren]], although little is known about him.

However, it is not know how long Daniel was in Longmont. Daniel's reasoning for getting a dog was for Music to act as security, more specifically as a "guard dog". While Daniel was allowed to adopt Music and walk out of the shelter with her, workers and bystanders were concerned about Daniel getting a dog, but nobody truly tried to stop him. [[File:Longmont Facebook Comment.png|thumb|A concerned bystanders comment who claims to have seen Daniel whilst adopting Music. ]]There was an attempt by Humane Society employees to slow down the adoption process, but they ultimately allowed Daniel to take Music with him. In a Reddit AMA published on July 11th, 2023 by a worker at the Longmont Humane Society, they admit that the animal shelter did not do any sort of background check on Daniel. | ||
The worker went on to explain that people adopting animals lying about their living conditions was common at the shelter, and many people of Daniel's stature passed through and were perfectly capable of caring for dogs | The worker went on to explain that people adopting animals lying about their living conditions was common at the shelter, and many people of Daniel's stature passed through and were perfectly capable of caring for dogs | ||

This call to action reached the ears of many people, most notably one of Daniel's older managers, [[Ox|Ox.]] Even though the opinion of Ivan in the community is largely negative, him posting in the subreddit about his attempts to rescue Daniel's dog lead people to be hopeful that he could maybe redeem himself and return with Music safely. In the time it took Ox to arrive from Wyoming, Goated Mines and many others called Longmont Animal Control and the Longmont Humane Society. While the Humane Society did not answer the phone, presumably due to the amount of harassment they were receiving, Animal Control was made aware of the situation. This would later be corroborated by Ox, who said he'd seen Animal Control checking the Longmont area when he finally arrived in Colorado.{{Citation Needed}} [[File:Longmont Statement 7-10-23.png|thumb|A public statement issued by Longmont Humane Society.|350x350px]]Not long after, Daniel began to post more videos of Music.
