Alleged representatives of French animal rights group Cause Animal Nord have been caught on camera restraining a homeless Paris man as they steal his puppy.

Do you think the French animal rights group Cause Animal Nord were too aggressive when trying to obtain the dog from the homeless man?

The president of the animal activists group, Antony Blanchard, reportedly said they acted because the group believed the owner was drugging the dog. A Facebook post on the group's page claims the puppy appeared shockingly immobile and had dilated pupils.

If the dog was indeed drugged, do you think this situation was handled correctly?

Do you think that homeless people should be allowed to keep pets?

While it's unclear if the dog was actually being mistreated or not, at least one other local animal welfare group is critical of Blanchard's actions regardless. Grégory Malfait, president of the Animal Protective League, told French media that he was maddened by the incident, adding that Cause Animale Norde took the dog illegally. "Even if we do animal protection, there is still a legal framework there," he said. "They went completely off."

Do you think this man deserves to have his dog returned to him?
