This Video of a Dog Realizing He Can Stand Up In the Pool Is Going Viral

Meet Cody, atwo-year-old Labrador living in Pennsylvania who loves the pool. And can you blame him? There's nothing better than cooling down in the summer heat with a quick dip in the pool.

 Cody is a pretty smart dog—he already knows how to jump off the diving board on command:

But there was one trick that was maybe so obvious, Cody didn't realize he could do it. "My dog loves our pool so much that he learned too many tricks to do with it including this," wrote his owner on her YouTube page.

Watch the moment Cody realizes that he is tall enough to switch his usual doggy-paddle for a human-like walk on his hind legs:

Using his newfound skill to his advantage, he begins to stroll around the water, just like any other human would do. He might've begged a little too—but what's a new trick without a little treat in exchange?​
