This clever dog did not need to dig an expensive tunnel, or pay police officers and security guards thousands of dollars to keep his prison break on the download. All he had to do was climb the shelter’s main metal gate and on plain daylight to regain his freedom.

By now we all know details of what Joaquín Guzmán Loera, “El Chapo” Guzmán, did to escape maximum security prison not once but twice, and when we see our canine friends attempting to escape shelter walls, we laugh and love to make comparisons. However, what we need to remember is that life in prison (real jail or an animal shelter) is not ideal for anyone.

While we want to make sure real two-legged criminals are not running on the streets freely, who can blame our four-legged friends to wanting to break free? Come one, a forever home is way better than life in a shelter.

The dog in this video has no difficulty climbing over the fence and running to freedom, we just hope that whoever filmed the video captured the fugitive and helped him get a forever home the dog won’t want to run away from.
