German Shepherds were bred specifically for their high levels of intelligence and, as a result, are commonly used as police and guard dogs around the world. This breed has a desire to learn that sometimes overpowers their desire to just accept what is. However, a source of confusion for them is usually a source of amusement for the owner.

Filmed in a kitchen, this German Shepherd discovers and stares down at its shadow being cast on the floor before curiously attacking it. It’s everywhere, at first he tries to scratch it, but that did not work. Then he tries to lose the shadow by hopping around, but it seems to be everywhere.

No matter where he turns, it realizes that the shadow is still there, and it tries it best to stamp it away much to the amusement of its owner. Not sure if the dog thinks it is that funny. Suddenly the German Shepherd leaps into the air and jumps down onto the shadow barking as if to say, “Who are you and why are you following me?”

The dog then goes back and forth of its shadow as if deciding on the most strategic plan of action. His facial expression is priceless. There is too much confusion for this little pooch. It is as though he just realized that the weirdo on the floor is just as annoying as that tail that seems to be everywhere he goes.
