THE KITCHEN — When I was a kid, my mom would occasionally go to the Hostess outlet store and stock up on Twinkies, Chocodiles and Snoballs. Since these items were already past their prime, she'd toss them in the basement freezer when she got home.
Those first few weeks after her Hostess shopping trips, we kids would loiter around the freezer. If nobody was around, we'd grab a frozen treat and then scamper out into the backyard to eat it (my mom usually wanted us to save them for "special occasions"). After a while, the Hostess items would become more scarce. You'd need to rummage around, looking under freezer-burned trout and random venison products we'd gotten from our uncle years earlier. But if you were tenacious, you could usually find a solitary HoHo wedged in a back corner.
I thought of those days of freezer pillaging when I saw this video.
This dog clearly has a system in place. It goes straight to the freezer drawer, opens it like an expert jewelry thief and starts pulling out frozen treats. At one point, it even goes over and sniffs the security camera just to mock its owner.
But moms and dog owners can be tricky, too. My mom eventually got sick of us snarfing down illicit Hostess treats and simply stopped buying them.
According to the description of this video, the dog owner ultimately put child-locks on the freezer. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if this clever pet figures out a way to get around that, as well.
