CCTV footage has captured the moment a tiny chihuahua's barks were enough to scare off - would-be car thieves.

Three lads who pulled up to a residential street were seen trying to open a parked car's doors at two in the morning.

But the small dog managed to send them fleeing - with yapping.

In the video, two-year-old rescue dog Milo is heard barking and the three men are seen running back to their vehicle and driving away.

According to Milo's owner Anna Moomin, 32, this isn't the first time her car was broken into.

She said: "This is the fourth time I’ve had men trying to break into my car. "[Milo] did a much better job than the police."

Anna, a content creator, thought the group were drunk on their way home from a night out - but the following day she realised items had been stolen.

Anna said: "I went to my car in the morning and the contents of my car had been turfed out and spare house keys stolen.

"I know I shouldn’t have put them in there but due to my disabilities, I can forget/misplace things.

"The time before that was last month when a man in a grey hoodie smashed my passenger window to get 2 cigarettes.

"The time before that was probably three months ago when two men were trying to siphon petrol out of my car.

"All times were recorded on CCTV and all times the police did nothing."

Anna, who is from Barnsley, South Yorks., described Milo as "the best dog ever."

Anna said: "He can be very vocal when he hears noises but he’s so caring and loving and likes cuddling with people and dogs he knows.

"He can tell when someone’s upset and when I have meltdowns - I’m autistic - he comes straight up and puts his paw on me."

The footage was captured on August 22.
