German shepherd throws a fit after being told it's time to quit swimming

A German shepherd threw a big temper tantrum when she was told she had to stop swimming.

Laura Gibbs posted the video on YouTube showing Bella having a ton of fun playing in the water. But when she was told it's time to go home, Bella began to howl and moan, refusing to get out of the water.

It seems Bella's plan worked in the end.

"She got to keep swimming after her wonderful theatrical performance," Gibbs posted on YouTube. "No dogs' hearts were actually broken in the making of this video."

Bella's not the first pup to beg to keep playing. Last year, Josh Gottsegen posted this video on YouTube showing a howling husky who didn't want to leave the dog park.
