This adorable Golden Retriever was going for a ride on a motorbike sidecar - but decided he still wanted to go for a run.<br /><br />Five-year-old Messi - named after the Barcelona footballer - was being driven for the first time in the carriage attached to a moped in Udon Thani, Thailand, on February 25. <br /><br />But the flat surface and the road moving quickly underneath him seemed to confuse nimble-footed Messi, who thought he should be running along with it to keep up.<br /><br />The energetic pet dog was filmed by his owner quickly jogging and leaping up and down on the spot during the journey.<br /><br />The owner, Nong Saytong, said: ''Messi was jogging the whole way during the journey. It totally confused me. I'm not sure why he was doing it.<br /><br />''This was his first time in sidecar. I think he sensed the road was moving and felt he should be running to keep up the pace.''<br /><br />++CLIENTS PLEASE NOTE: THIS VIDEO HAS BEEN EDITED++
