This is the amusing moment a pet dog brought a bucket onto his owners' bed, seemingly eager for bath time.

Hank, the Labrador Retriever mix, carried the blue plastic pail into the couple's bedroom while they were resting in Metro Manila, the Philippines.

CCTV footage shows Karla and her husband lying on the bed with their two other dogs between them.

Moments later, the lively four-month-old pooch joined the huddle, his jaw firmly clasped around the handle of the container.

Hank stood by the bedside wagging his tail before leaning onto the mattress and dropping the bucket right onto the bed covers.

Startled by the clatter, Karla sat up to check what Hank had placed on the bed before her partner reached out to pet the pup.

Karla said: 'Ever since he was a puppy, he has been retrieving anything he finds amusing. At the moment, he loves taking things from the bathroom, including a water dipper, shampoo bottles, and buckets.'
