Paul Carthy, 25, pleaded guilty in Exeter, England, in September to theft 
subsequent to his original charge of shoplifting from a liquor store. In

A baffled British woman who lost a mobile phone dialed the number and 
heard it ringing inside her friend's dog.

Rachel Murray, 27, had left the cellphone under her Christmas tree as a 
surprise gift for her flatmate, The Sun newspaper reported on Friday. 

But chum Tony Dangerfield's bloodhound Charlie crept into the room and 
greedily wolfed down the mobile phone, leaving only a pile of torn paper.

After a frantic search for the phone, Murray obtained the number from the 
telephone company, dialed and heard muffled ringing from sleeping 
Charlie's stomach.

"At first I thought Charlie was lying on the phone -- then I realized 
where it was," she said. "I couldn't believe he'd swallowed it."

The dog was rushed to a vet, who advised Murray and Dangerfield to let 
nature take its course. 

Twenty four hours later the phone duly emerged -- in perfect working 
order.

next girlfriend.
