Rachelle, who lives with her nine-month-old puppy in Vancouver, Canada, had no idea she was about to strike viral gold.

But her little dog's failure to catch his toy had her laughing so hard that she decided to share the joy on TikTok with an adorable clip.

In the video, Yoda tries to snatch a rainbow-colored cloth bone tossed his way, fails, and flops to the floor in frustration.

For anyone concerned about little Yoda's well-being, have no fear – his owner first made sure he was all right.

"At first when he fell, I immediately comforted him, but I also couldn't believe I caught the moment on camera. This hadn't happened before, and we've worked on catch since," Rachelle told Newsweek

Yoda is now steadily getting better at catch, and his new fan base is looking forward to seeing the progress.

"The response to the video has been all positive and I love to share the silly, funny moments of my puppy, but also to connect more with a community that loves and knows German shepherds," Rachel said.
