Weeks prior to the adoption, Daniel expressed desire to adopt a dog and several other pets. Given factors such as his [[Homeless Era|homelessness]] and inability to care for himself, many doubted the likelihood of Daniel being able to adopt any kind of animal. Daniel's repeated claims of having security and a dedicated support team seemed to align with delusional beliefs. [[File:Facebook Comments.png|thumb|330x330px|Worried Facebook commenters, posted under a warning about Daniel. ]]During this time, Daniel’s [[Management|manager]] was a man named [[Warren]], although little is known about him. Warren most likely advised Daniel to keep his location a secret. This can be inferred from the amount of times Daniel was found lying about his location to evade detection, such as lying about purchasing motel rooms. And during this time, Daniel still had access to [[Cameo Arc|Cameo]], a video making service where he would be given money to make custom videos for those who requested them. Before his eventual banning, Daniel stated that he had make over $5,000 while using it.<ref>[[Cameo Arc#Pricing]]</ref> This provided him sufficient funds to adopt a dog.

On July 9th, 2023, Daniel adopted Music, formerly named Zola, a German Shepard mix, from the Longmont Humane Society, an animal shelter in Longmont, Colorado. The duration of Daniel's stay in Longmont remains unclear. Though, after an AMA from an employee at the humane society, it was confirmed that Daniel came to the shelter alone.<ref>[[Longmont Humane Society Employee AMA]]</ref> His justification 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 leave the shelter with her, both workers and bystanders were concerned about Daniel getting a dog, but nobody took action to prevent it.

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 future [[Longmont Humane Society Employee AMA|Reddit AMA]] published by a worker at the Longmont Humane Society, they admit that the animal shelter did not conduct any sort of background check on Daniel. But after being informed of who Daniel was, the workers were horrified. Though, even with this information, they still expressed disgust with the way people treated the workers and Longmont Humane Society as a whole. The employee went on to claim that the adoption center now had to deal with several alleged emergency service calls which resulted in first responders showing up due to swatting attempts, or false bomb threats.
