Texas - It's hard to plead innocent when you're caught red-handed, or in this case, with food all over your face! TikTok cannot stop laughing over a food-stealing dog's attempts to look innocent.

The canine named Sophie tried to play it cool, but her messy eating habits gave her away.

Owner Stephanie Pennington from Texas left her soup on the counter to defrost and walked away. When the TikToker came back to the kitchen, she was puzzled.

Her Tupperware container was open, and half of the cold soup was missing. Quite clearly, someone's been nibbling!
