This dog is the fashion icon we never knew we needed: "You steal it, you wear it"

For many dog lovers, Dachshunds are the perfect pet. The adorable pups are small, cuddly, and full of love – but every now and then they let slip that they were actually bred to hunt badgers. Case in point? This viral video!

All the things that Link steals are soon put on his little body! And y'know what, he is kind of pulling off the bold fashion looks.

As a popular TikTok video shows, Link the "sausage dog" likes to steal all kinds of things that were not actually intended to be dog toys.

It shows the silly little guy running to his dog bed with various things that he should actually keep his paws off, including a pink glove, aluminum foil, and a cap.

His owners already seem to know the hustle, as they have made a game out of their dog's magpie-like habit.

"If you steal it, you wear it," says the onscreen text as the caption reads, "Feeling extra bonita today."

All the things that Link steals are soon put on his little body! And y'know what, he is kind of pulling off the bold fashion looks.

The video and its follow-up posts have gained tens of millions of views between them!

Will Link the dog ever learn his lesson? We sure hope not.
