This dog didn’t let the fact that he’s four-legged keep him on the ground and out of the playground fun.
At a playground in a small town in Mexico, a group of children are monkeying their way up a ladder, leading to a platform adorned with several slides.
Instead of sitting off to the side and watching the laughing children play, this dog wanted in on the action.
Supporting his weight on his hind legs, he propels his front legs up and latches his paws to one of the bars. Tail wagging vigorously, he excitedly hops both his back legs up onto the next step.
As he stretches one of his hind legs up to the next step, his footing slips, and he’s forced back down to earth.
But he doesn’t let that discourage him. He begins his ascent again, and this time he’s figured out a new strategy. He begins popping his head between the ladder’s openings in order to balance his weight. Hello, magic!
As soon as his paws touch the platform, swoosh! He barrels down one of the slides with the help of one of his new playmates.
This little guy’s determination shows that as long as you keep trying, you’re going to reach your goal eventually. And even if you get pushed down a slide, you can always get back up and try again!
