The Mounties in Labrador are crediting a K9 and his handling officer for nabbing a suspected shoe thief.
Police responded to the theft from a store in Happy Valley-Goose Bay on Wednesday.
Upon arrival, they learned that the suspect had already fled the area.
Police dog Phox and his handler were brought in, and managed to track the man to a nearby house, where they say he was found still wearing the stolen sneakers.
He was arrested, charged with theft under $5,000, and released on conditions with a future court date.
