This is the AMUSING moment a stray dog was caught on camera stealing a resident's parcel from outside her shop.

CCTV footage caught the cheeky brown canine plucking the package full of cosmetics from owner Wimonchat Muenna's doorstep before disappearing into the streets in Khon Kaen province, Thailand, in the early hours of December 4.

Wimonchat arrived later in the morning expecting the parcel at the entrance, only to find it was missing.

She said: 'I told the courier to leave the package in front of the store since I wasn't there when he made the delivery.

'But when I went to open my shop on Monday, I was surprised because it had disappeared.

'When I went to turn on the CCTV camera, I found that the missing parcel was taken by a brown dog. It's like he knew where the parcel was hidden.

'There were even slippers on top, but he made a beeline for it.'

She added that stray dogs, which she believed had wandered from a nearby temple, had caused her trouble before when they stole her shoes and jumped into the fish pool outside her shop.

Wimonchat said: 'If anyone finds my parcel, please contact me. I've been looking for it for several days but have had no luck.'
