OK, so technically Bailey — Elizabeth Warren's very good golden retriever — stole someone's burrito. But damn if he didn't look adorable doing it and who could blame the pup?

Warren suspended her presidential campaign on Thursday and Bailey was simply done with the decorum that comes with being a potential First Dog.

Warren staffer Gabrielle Farrell posted a short clip of Bailey munching on an illicitly obtained burrito. In the six-second video, a rush of people attempt to pry the treat away from the pup, but none seem to have much success. Bailey was determined.

It is not clear from whom Bailey stole the burrito or if the rest of the treat was later surrendered to the good dog.

"Bailey you stole it," someone can be heard saying in the video amongst the commotion.

Folks online loved Bailey's daring 'rito caper because what isn't to love? The general sentiment was effectively let Bailey have the burrito.

Bailey appeared often on the trail with Warren and is generally a very lovable dog. He's already gone viral twice today. Earlier Thursday, he sneakily watched the reporters waiting for Warren to speak through a frosty window outside her home in Massachusetts.

And Thursday definitely isn't the first time Bailey has stirred up a bit of trouble. Back in October he rushed-in and interrupted an interview with CNN. But nobody seemed to mind. Because Bailey is a good pup.
