A dog has been caught on video by its owner in a remarkable display of canine amateur dramatics.

The pooch, who is called Rosie, was first shown in the clip running around madly in a park and trying to get another dog to join in.

However, her pal isn't too keen and instead mock-bites Rosie on the neck in a display of annoyance.

Dramatic Rosie then goes stock still and collapses to the ground in a heap, with her legs sticking out for extra realism.

She stays that way for a couple of seconds, then has a cheeky glance over her shoulder to make sure she has an audience and springs back to her feet again.

Rosie has become a hit on YouTube after her owner uploaded the video, but she revealed the puppy is always seeking attention.

Dog-Obedience-Training-Review.com states that it is possible to teach a dog to play dead using food and a clicker, but they probably haven't seen many who manage to learn without instruction!
