Edmonton, Alberta weatherman Mike Sobel was on double duty during a recent morning broadcast – having to simultaneously provide the weather report while also attempting to wrangle “Ripple,” a 18-month-old mastiff mix on visit from a local animal shelter. 

As the video shows, Ripple was much more interested in playing tug-of-war on camera than hearing the weather forcast and, as a result, will hopefully have little trouble finding a new owner to play with now. 

Watch, AFTER THE JUMP…
