Parents left baffled at how their toddler who was too short to reach the door handle kept escaping her bedroom to wander the halls late at night were shocked to discover she had two partners in crime - their adorable Golden retrievers.

Using in-room safety cameras, they recorded the cheeky pair of pooches opening the door and playing with the girl before leading her out for a wander.

But finally their questions were answered when they installed cameras to observe their little Houdini in action.
