Happy days: In the funny footage, Ozzy appears to love his foray on the swing set
Playtime: Ozzy is still just a pup and turned one-year-old in October, so its fitting he went in the child's swing
Citron told Yahoo News that he was playing with his five-year-old daughter, Sophie, at a park in Kingston when Ozzy took a liking to the swing set.
They decided to put him, and Sophie happily, albeit gently, pushed Ozzy along.
While the video has garnered almost 50,000 views, its biggest fan is Sophie.
'She asks to see the video all the time because she thinks it’s hilarious,' Citron told Yahoo.
'I thought maybe some animal rights activist might have a problem with it.
'But I had too many friends tell me, ''That’s hilarious, you've got to put it up''.'
Ozzy is still a pup, and turned one in October.
Citron plans on shooting more videos.
