1

Go to Franklin's house. You'll be playing as Franklin Clinton at the very start of GTA V. Around 5 missions after the prologue scene, and right after the "Repossession" mission, drive back to Franklin's house at Forum Drive in Los Santos. It's a bungalow house with white wire fences.
2

Start the Chop mission. Lamar, your main character's friends, will appear at your house and will ask you to go with him and pick some items. Go to his white Speedo van parked outside the house and drive it.
3

Go to your destination. Lamar will tell you to go to some alley in Vinewood Boulevard. Follow the GPS on the lower part of your screen to easily find the location.
4

Get out of the car. Once you arrive at your destination, get out of the vehicle and walk towards the alley. A cut scene will appear showing Franklin and Lamar covering their faces with bandanas, and another man hastily taking off on his motorcycle.
5
Chase after the biker. Head back to your van and go after the biker that just took off. The rider will be quite fast, but you don't need to catch up to him. Just don't let him out of your view.
- After a few moments of car chase, the biker will be hit by a bus. Get out of your car and chase the driver on foot. Chop—Lamar's dog—will also be running with you.
6

Switch to Chop's view. As you get close to the biker, a message will appear on the game screen telling you that you can change to Chop's view. Press the button mentioned on the screen, and the camera will switch from Franklin's view to Chop's.
7

Kidnap the rider. The foot chase will eventually lead you to a train yard where the rider will be hiding in boxcars. Chop will sniff him out, and you can pinpoint his location by switching to Chop's view while the dog does his part. After you find the rider, Lamar will arrive with the white Speedo van. Get the rider inside the van and drive away.
8

Drive out of the train yard. Lamar will tell you that you need to go back to his house. Start driving out of the rail yard and Lamar will make a phone call to someone where he'll be asking for a ransom in exchange for the safety of the rider you just abducted.
9

Release the rider. After hearing the call, your character will force Lamar to release the rider. Stop the van to let the rider out and continue to drive afterwards. Follow the GPS on your map, and drop off Lamar and Chop on the location the map tells you to go. This marks the end of the mission.
10
Take Chop out for a walk or fetch. After the mission has ended, Lamar will call you and tell you that Chop needs to stay with you for a while. Go back to Franklin's house to find the dog in the yard.
- Congratulations, you've got yourself a dog in GTA V. You can play ball or take Chop for a walk by picking him up from your house.
