An adorable German Shepard has mistaken a branch for a stick in an hilarious video clip.
The video shows owner Chris Martin telling his three-year-old pooch, Lucas, to fetch a stick, but instead the dog tries to break a stick from a branch.
The comical video – filmed on January 7 – continues to show Lucas tugging at the tree branch with all his strength in a bid to try and break a stick off.
Chris, from Atlanta, Georgia, US, says: “He likes playing outside, he’s always fetching and piling sticks.
“He didn’t get the one in the video, but I found him a much easier one that he could nab on.”
