A Labrador got quite the shock when he took a sip of water and soon discovered it was carbonated.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bentley, a chocolate Lab from Montreal, Quebec, was tricked by his owner as part of the ‘Sparkling Water Challenge’ on TikTok.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The unsuspecting pup sticks his head in his water bowl but realises it tastes a little different to usual and makes a hilarious face of disgust.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bentley, a chocolate Labrador (right) from Montreal, Quebec, was given a shock when his owner poured carbonated water into his bowl (right) instead of his usual still water<\/p>\n
His owners shared the comical clip on social media as part of a popular trend which sees owners tricking their pets into taking sips of fizzy water.<\/p>\n
In the clip, Bentley’s owner can be seen pouring some of their lemon-flavoured Bubly sparkling water into the dog’s water bowl.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hearing something new drop in his bowl, Bentley quickly comes around the corner and laps up the water without hesitation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But as soon as he gets a taste of the water he jumps backwards in shock at the unusual taste and bears his teeth, as if he is disgusted with what he has just consumed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Clearly still in shock, he stares at the bowl confused and trying to figure out what was different.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His owner said: ‘I was just sitting around one day, sipping my Bubly sparkling water – when I decided to give some to my Chocolate Lab Bentley.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
After getting a shock from the sparkling water, Bentley sniffed and stared at his water as if he was confused by what had just happened (pictured)<\/p>\n
‘He loves to eat and drink everything so I figured, why not give him a sip?\u00a0Needless to say, his reaction was hilarious.’<\/p>\n
The comical video, posted last month, has gained the attention of millions of Tik Tok users, with more than 4.5million likes and thousands of comments.<\/p>\n
One person replied: ‘That’s exactly how I look every time I try it and think I might like it this time.’<\/p>\n
‘He flinched so hard,’ another said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But thankfully the experience was not enough to put Bentley off, with his owners posting another video afterwards showing him lapping up still water with ease.\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to Rover, dogs can consume a ‘pinch’ of sparkling water but on rare occasions, if guzzled, it can cause a gas build up.<\/p>\n
