It doesn't matter if you own a big hound or a fluffy little tabby, you know how persuasive an animal can be when they smell a tasty snack. From wagging their tails to their piercing gaze, they have plenty of weapons at their disposal to convince us to give them a bite.

And if all fails, some are determined enough to try out the last option — stealing!

We at Bored Panda put together a new collection of amusing photographic evidence, showcasing shameless pet thieves in the middle of their crimes. I wonder what excuse they would give to a judge.

According to biologist Genevieve Dugal, there are several reasons why a dog might be stealing food, with the most obvious being that they're just hungry. Especially if they have understood very well that the kitchen counter or the dining table conceals tasty treasures to reach for!

After all, you spend your time cooking mouth-watering food there; it’s normal for your dog to want to nibble on a piece of it too.

"Even if your dog is not necessarily hungry, he still tries to steal food because he receives a reward each time he succeeds," Dugal added.

"And we’re not just talking about the piece of meat as such: by stealing food from under your nose, your pup also catches your eye!"

Indeed, who has never reacted in front of their dog trying to steal food by telling him to stop or by suggesting to go get the ball instead?

So even if you reprimand them, you are paying attention to your pet and that gives him a good reason to keep at it.

"In short, when a dog behaves in a certain way and that behavior is rewarded or reinforced, they are more likely to repeat that behavior over and over again," Dugal explained.

"Finding a delicious piece of chicken on the counter is an incredible reward in itself. But if he also gets your attention every time, he is likely to repeat this behavior until he is no longer rewarded."

Whether you have a young puppy or a senior dog, a lack of obedience training may be the reason why he keeps jumping around the kitchen or stealing food elsewhere. Some dogs can steal food simply because they never learned it was forbidden. Or maybe they just need a little reminder!

To remedy this behavior, you will need to teach—or re-teach—your doggo to react differently to food that is not theirs.

In other words, your pooch might be bored! The lack of physical and mental stimulation can lead to many behavioral problems, including stealing food.
