Dogs are just like us - always looking for a smarter, faster way of doing things. So when Rosie's ball fell in the pool, she figured out a brilliant way to get it back.

At first she tries to get it the old-fashioned way, but she soon decides that she'd rather not get all wet.

So Rosie walks around the edge of the pool ... where she notices an empty plastic tub. That's when she gets an ingenious idea - why not use the bin as a boat? You can almost see the lightbulb go off over her head.

Rosie sets sail in her little ship. At first things are a bit shaky, but she's soon well on her way to getting her precious ball back.

Rosie's mom, Esther Cushway, was clearly delighted with her antics. "Just love her and how she manages to think deeply before making a most clever decision!!!! Lol," she wrote on Facebook.

As soon as Rosie grabbed her ball she headed back to dry land.
