An alleged puppy pilferer put a poor Pomeranian in his pants before he walked out of a Long Island store, Nassau police said.
Surveillance cameras caught the pooch pincher placing the 10-week old pup down his pants in the Zoorama Pet Store in Elmont on June 23, police said.
Two men entered the store and one distracted the clerk while the other shoved the puppy down his pants, police said.
The store owner is offering a $500 reward for the tiny cream-colored, female pup, who weighs less than 2 pounds.
Police ask anyone with information to call (800) 244-TIPS.
