A five-month-old Australian shepherd named Vango may have had a paw in his own rescue when he alerted staff at a Gatineau, Que., pet store to his suspected dognapping.

"The dog was barking, the dog was poking and he really wanted my attention," Jodoin said.
Jodoin said he immediately became suspicious when the couple didn't seem to know basic information about the dog his exact age, whether he'd been sterilized, what kind of food he ate and how much they'd paid for him.
