EAST LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- A brazen puppy theft was caught on camera in East Los Angeles.

Mayali Morales has video of a woman opening her gate, going into her backyard and then taking off with her 3-year-old poodle and the dog's four puppies.

Morales said she doesn't know who the woman is, but claims the same woman came to her house two days before the incident, asking about the dogs and claiming to work at an animal care center.
