This video first hit the online community several weeks ago, yet for some reason it took a while for it to build momentum and start getting the attention it deserved.

Virtually nobody is able to figure out why this puppy is so desperate to get the monkey to play with it.

Still, this does little to change the fact that the pooch is nothing if not determined to succeed in its endeavor and could not care less about what the people watching its struggles to get the monkey's attention might think of it.

Unfortunately for the pup, the monkey is not in the least impressed by the dog sudden interest in the idea that the two of them could be the best of friends, even if only for a little while.
