One of the games that dogs are most accustomed to is the one in which a person throws them a toy, a ball or a branch, they run and return it, and they can stay there for a long time in a day.

However, dogs do not have the knowledge to distinguish what is a statue and what are immobile stone figures. They see someone in the shape of a human with something round in their hand and they think they are going to play with them.

That’s what happens in a video uploaded to Instagram by user @memes.de.perritos. In the nice scene, a dog sees a statue dedicated to a tennis player and who therefore had a tennis ball in his hand.

The dog uses his paw to ask the human figure to play with him, since he wanted to go after the ball. However, the dog was not successful, and despite asking him to touch the foot of the statue, he did not get what he wanted.

The reactions in the comments have been tenderness towards the animal. “There is no being more innocent than them,” commented one user regarding the animal. Others asked that the person recording help the dog so that he didn’t get his hopes up.

But other people referred to the fact that the statue could play with the animal when no one was looking, and that if the dog was asking the figure to play it was because it had seen it alive before, which caused fear and laughter. equally in the comments section.
