A German shepherd has left his owner in stitches when he found a felled tree and wanted him to play fetch with him.<\/p>\n

Ben, who posted the clip on Reddit, said his pooch has a habit of picking up sticks and joked his pooch has "finally met his match".<\/p>\n

In the video, the excited canine sinks his teeth on a very huge "stick" and tries to pick it up.<\/p>\n

He puts his front limb on and attempts to move it while making an adorable whining sound.<\/p>\n

The pooch looks up at Ben, waiting for him to play fetch.<\/p>\n

The owner pans the camera further and laughed with frustration as he realises it's a felled branch from a massive tree.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But the German shepherd wouldn't give up and carried on trying to pick up the branch.<\/p>\n

Other German shepherd owners were in hysterics as they commented how cute Ben's pet is.<\/p>\n

"I am dying. That whine of frustration is so familiar," a viewer wrote.<\/p>\n

A second said: "Love how he\u2019s getting mad that you\u2019re not helping. My first German shepherd did this all the time."<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Many agreed that German shepherds are "generally smart" but sometimes they can be very dumb.<\/p>\n

Ben added in the comments: "He wants me to bloody throw it! I could possibly pick it up, but throwing it is another thing."<\/p>\n

One shared his story: "My shepherd has an obsession with lumber, he'll destroy $30 'indestructible' toys in minutes or straight up lose them but he never loses his stupid sticks.<\/p>\n

    "It's all fun and games until he's dragging that tree through carpark between all the parked cars, ready to go home with it," a dog lover wrote.<\/p>\n

    Another couldn't help but make a joke out of it, saying: "He needs an assistant branch manager."<\/p>\n
