|

The truth hurts: Sometimes your best just isn’t good enough.

That’s certainly the case for the corgi in this video, uploaded by YouTube user chrwaa on Thursday.

This little corgster is doing everything in its power to get the tennis ball back, but with legs that tiny, there’s only so much you can do.

Well, the pup could actually move, but who wants to do that?
