A woman in Oklahoma City has resorted to dog-shaming after she caught her pet sneaking out at night to beg for hamburgers at a nearby McDonalds.

In an expletive-laced Facebook post, Betsy Reyes said of her dog, Princess:

If you see my dog @ the McDonalds on shields, quit feeding her fat ass bc she dont know how to act & be leaving the house all the time to go walking to McDonalds at night. Shes not even a stray dog. Shes just a gold diggin ass bitch that be acting like shes a stray so people will feel bad for her & feed her burgers.

Reyes caught the dog in the act when she drove to McDonalds and photographed and filmed her taking food from drive-thru customers.

The dog approached Reyes car, but when she saw her owner was behind the wheel, she moved on to another car in search of food.

Animal behaviorist Corey Cohen laughed when he heard about the panhandling pooch. It shows that dogs are far more intelligent and their behavior is more complex than simple stimulus/response, said Cohen, who is based in northeastern Pennsylvania. Thats why we need to treat them as friends and not machines.
