I think you may be over obsessed with the idea that "the boyfriend did it"
Statistically 1/3rd of homicides are by someone known to the victim.
The disappearance of Nicola Bulley

They should investigate everything.But please do try not to confuse that with an empty one
I'm confused as to why you keep insisting the police should do nothing to investigate?
My only complaint was them announcing priority that she fell in so early in the investigation.
They didn't need to say anything, at least to the public.
Not really, my experience with Fitbit is they're terrible for syncing. I never did much research on it so don't know if it's specific models of Fitbit's or down to phones/OS. But I had mine set to auto sync but would notice it wouldn't always and even when you forced a sync it still wouldn't. Eventually a forced or automatic sync would happen but it could be several days before it decided to sync again.

Better to remain silent and thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt

Its been said that she "always" took the harness off the dog when arriving at the fields, so the harness being off will have been entirely normal
However, statistically in the UK, of the homicides committed by a relative in the UK, 80% are committed in the home, not in a public location.
I think they did.
The disappearance has gained so much media traction they needed to.
I think what they've said is sensible. It's rational and it's still the most likely outcome from what we (the public) know so far.
With the huge media interest of course they were going to release a statement based on their current hypothesis. The same as they have said, for the head teacher and her families murder, they're not looking for a third party. You just seem to be stuck on having a hypothesis means they aren't considering other possibilities which is the opposite of what a hypothesis is.
Oh ok.
And then be criticised for doing/knowing nothing? Some people just have a problem with authority, and for them the police can't do anything right. Besides; when the divers start turning up, it's going to be pretty obvious why - you don't need scuba gear and underwater sonar to track someone on CCTV
lol at all the white-knighting. It's an internet forum, gimmie the craziest theories you guys got!
I think if you pay close enough attention to what the police have been saying, and also info the media have been releasing within their quite specific articles, it kind of points to the dog.

So we are at 20% of ⅓ and people are still saying this is the most likely scenario
I noticed someone changed my Sherlock type thread title it's an outrage I didn't want to put her name in the title as I wasn't sure if it was in good taste to do that.
I can't imagine how her family are coping with all this.

At this stage, 10 days after her disappearance, finding a body in the river would be the best case scenario in a bad situation.
If they don't find anything at all, then you leave the family with a dozen questions that no one can answer, living with doubt can be devestating for them, specially the children who will always be asking why.
The police will have been through the boyfriend with a fine-toothed comb as one of the first things they did, (whether they said it or not). Her boyfriend was never a suspect because he was at home when this happened, (I believe they know because the CCTV proves it). In any case - if he was lying and involved, he would almost certainly have been found out by now, so it very much sounds like the police ruled him out in the very early stages (which is normal for something like this).
The problem now, is that in the absence of any evidence the people on social media just start inventing their own theories to fill the gap and keep "the game" going, and it just makes the families life totally miserable. It wouldn't suprise me if her boyfriend is already getting death threats on social media, and all that nonsense.
Reading through some of comments on the tweets from the family and police, really made me sad.

No, they said she fell in the river. They didn't say she'd drowned. Maybe she just doesn't want to get out yet.
Some of the f&f comments are also fueling the speculation.
