Family speechless when they see surveillance video of what their golden retriever does at night

Sacramento (California) - Perpetrator convicted! Marnie Marfil and her husband were very surprised when they couldn't find his clothes for the new day in their apartment in Sacramento, California. The night before, the clothes had been lying on the washstand in the bathroom. Finally, the parents watched the video from the surveillance camera. Shortly afterwards, they were at a loss for words.

In the video, Riley was clearly visible as she carried the individual items of clothing outside one after the other. "She's never done that before, so we didn't even think it was her," Marnie Marfil told Newsweek afterwards.

Instead of the dog , the parents had previously suspected someone else entirely. "We actually suspected it was one of our sons who had stolen the clothes," the mother admitted.

As the surveillance video was very clear, it was clear that Riley was the culprit. But how she got onto the washstand in the bathroom is still a mystery to her owners.

Fortunately, they came up with the idea of posting the curious "evidence video" on Instagram and TikTok last weekend .

On the latter alone, the clip received 1.5 million clicks and almost 120,000 likes within four days. This made it possible to turn the brazen theft into a success.

A real stroke of luck for Marfil: "I can't believe how many others find it funny, and so many people are asking for more," she said happily in an interview with the US magazine.

So golden retriever Riley has come off more than well in these circumstances. And her owner can't stop raving about her: "I love that I can share how funny she is."

So this animal theft was really worth it!
