Chinese Dog trained to steal cell phones

WeirdNews Asia claims a dog in Guangzhou’s Panyu District, China, has been trained to steal cell phones.

The dog actually goes into people's homes and takes their cell phones. According to the local police "the dog had been trained by thieves and is actually a “hardened criminal”.

This story is not so far fetched, after all, Murphy is a Springer Spaniel trained to recognize the smell of cell phone handsets in prisons across the East of England.
