Google Maps Street View appears to have caught a dog being walked by an invisible owner in a bizarre snap.

Keen-eyed users designed to give a glimpse of a location from the ground, having spotted something spooky about an otherwise charming scene thought to be in Germany.

Google's roaming cameras travelling past a beautiful stately home, picked up a dog walking on the ground, seemingly pulling forward on a lead without anyone holding it.

The small pooch looks to be struggling against resistance from a person at the end of its lead but no one is to be seen, Express.co.uk reports.

It is likely that the way Google Maps takes its Street View images, is how a human can disappear in plain sight.

The photography splicing has caused the problem due to the way the images are assembled.

When snapping the shot, the 360-degree cameras shoot multiple pictures to create the seamless image.

This is done by knitting the images together to make it seem realistic.
