Man's Dog Turns Him in to Police
The Telegraph ^ | 22 Feb 2010

Posted on 02/22/2010 11:31:45 AM PST by nickcarraway

A German man on the run from police was given away by his own dog, which revealed its master's hiding place by wagging its tail while standing next to the small cupboard he was cowering in, authorities said on Monday.

Police called at the 52-year-old man's flat in Euskirchen near Cologne in western Germany on Friday, and an acquaintance of his opened the door carrying the suspect's dog.

"The man claimed not to know where the wanted man was. When he put the dog down, it proceeded with a wagging tail to a small cupboard... and stood expectantly in front of it," police said in a statement.

This prompted the officers to search the cupboard, which was just over a yard high and two and a half feet wide, where they found the man "hunched up inside."

All those years the dog begged for people food from the table- now he got revenge.

It obviously was a German Police Dog undercover disguised as a Chihuahua.
