Little girl steals neighbour's husky and replaces him - with a stuffed toy replica

This is the funny moment a young girl "stole" her neighbour's dog and replaced him - with a stuffed toy replica.

Olivia Myers, seven, has been best friends with Gunnar, an 11-year-old husky, since they met two years ago.

Gunnar's owner Amanda Sullian, 38, has admired and encouraged their friendship since it began.

Gunnar and Olivia play together daily, which has lead to an ongoing joke between Amanda and Olivia about who Gunnar actually belongs to.

Olivia previously threatened to steal Gunnar and replace him with a cuddly toy but Amanda laughed it off.

Little did she know that the little girl was serious and planned to put her plan to execution.

Funny surveillance footage shows Olivia sneaking into Amanda's backyard, calling Gunnar away and lying a stuffed husky toy in his place.
