Moose, the Bloodhound, loves to run after his ball when his humans throw it to him and is always up for a game of fetch. What Moose doesn’t understand is that some of his friends can’t throw his ball, even though he patiently waits for them to do it!

Moose’s mom shared a video showing the dog trying to get the family’s cat and even his infant human brother to throw his ball. Sometimes they’re awake and sometimes they’re napping, but Moose tries anyway. It’s adorable and heartbreaking at the same time!

Moose’s mom says in the caption, “I have to remind him daily that just because something has arms, doesn’t mean they can throw the ball for him.” It makes us so sad that he’s sad about it! We hope Mom steps in and throws it to him!

He just loves to play and loves the baby, so he wants to play with the baby!” It won’t be too long before Moose’s baby brother will be throwing him the ball, and we’ll be here waiting to see it!
