Three-legged canine shoplifter of the day

Oscar, a 10-year-old German short-haired pointer from Invercargill, New Zealand, was filmed by CCTV camera in a local store while he was taking a pet food roll in his mouth from a shelf and trying to make his way out with it.

Once Oscar and his adorable thieving ways were featured on national television a flood of requests to adopt him came in.

Oscar’s owners are apparently away on vacation. They left Oscar with relatives to watch over him, but it seems the relatives’ fence was less than adequate to contain Oscar. Oscar is currently being kept at the pound until the end of the week until his owners can get home to claim him, which will disappoint several of Oscar’s fans who were hoping to adopt him.
