"If I can't see you, you can't see me"
As soon as Phil hears the bath running, a game of hide and seek begins. But because of his size, he finds it hard to fit in his favourite hiding spaces.
Squeezing into a corner of the bathroom, Phil crouches quietly on the floor. He clearly feels invisible, but the trick doesn't quite achieve what he was hoping for.
Then it's on to Mia, the human baby of the family. A fraction of his size, Phil delicately crouches down behind her chair.
"Come on Phillip", exclaims his exasperated owner, unsure what to try next.
The only solution
Thankfully, her husband is ready and waiting to lift Phil into the bath tub.
Struggling with the weight of such a big boy, he finally manages to get him in the bath, where the bedragled dog stands waiting for it all to be over.
The video has had dog lovers around the world in stitches. And with over 2.2 million views, it quickly became an internet sensation.
