Dog owner fails to exercise at home as pooch wants to play

This was the moment a Bernese Mountain Dog from Cincinnati refused to let its owner exercise at home on January 22.

The lovable pooch named Appa saw its owner doing planks in the front room but decided that she needed to help out.

They explained: "I was trying to do planks in the Switch game RingFit Adventure - which requires you to stick your tush up in the air - and my husband just walked in to see what the game is like.

"My dog - Appa - thinks I’m playing and climbs under me and starts licking me like crazy.

"[My] other dog - Aspen - doesn’t care at all from the couch."
