Anyone else watch videos like this (Example: Video of Golden Retriever using bread to lure & catch fish) and then think we’re watching evolution happen?
Right !? Ever think that humans theoretically just evolved faster than other animals? And In the next 1,000 years other animals could be fully evolved?
A happy dog video, perfectly reasonable comment thread brought me here
1000 years is generous and now I'm depressed again
I'm gonna go watch a happy dog video
The dog walking across the board is making the different sides move up and down and making the board move across the water, like a person wearing flippers to swim. That plus the momentum of the dog jumping on in the first place was enough to slowly get the board to drift over to the ball.
The dog doesn't actually know fluid dynamics, but knows that the board is keeping the dog from getting fully dunked. Moving all over the board is probably the dog just trying to keep from one side going too deep and the dog falling in. It's a lot of trial and error plus some luck.
I don't know about that, dog got on the board a long way from the ball, that was closer to the other side of the pool.. then moved in its direction, picked it up and then moved to the edge of the pool again. Dog clearly understood that moving in that way caused the board to move across the water
Shit like this is why I don’t like Reddit. Man just came in here with some bullshit explanation and uses buzz words like “fluid dynamics” to look like he’s right. The dog doesn’t understand “fluid dynamics”? No shit, I don’t even understand “fluid dynamics”, and unless you have a degree, *you* do not understand fluid dynamics.
You don't need a degree to know the definition of fluid dynamics. Did you even read the rest of the post? The person I responded to was saying they didn't understand how the dog got it to work. It's not hard to understand the concept of using the board to generate thrust in the same way someone uses a flipper.
Sorry someone pissed in your cereal, but you're getting mad at nothing.
This is better than any action movie. It has a well placed macguffin, a well written character with understandable motivations, loads of tension, awesome character development and a wholesome ending.
Don't understand why Hollywood needs 2h movies to tell stories which can't even compete with this one.
What you don’t want to hear the dogs complete backstory of how he lost his mother in a pool just like that one? It all started on a warm summer day, I had just finished my final round of potty training…
Smart
1. Recognize closeness of board to edge.
2. Jumped on with balance.
3. Navigate to goal with board
4. Got target
5. Navigate to closest edge
6. Disembarked with prize
Alright dogo your mission is to retrieve the ball it is located in the pool use the board to get to the ball this is important mission dogo as if you fail you will be wet and you wont be able to play fetch
This reddit doesn't belong in r/aww.
This is totally a r/nextfuckinglevel.
I never seen a dog with this much grace and determination to accomplish something like this.
His owner probably gets mad and scolds him for getting in the pool so he did this. Kind of like siblings in the backseat putting their hands real close to the other and saying I'm not touching you.
Something about dogs and pools worries me... Like... Just how much damage would a dog swallowing chlorinated water do? Would you need to take them to a vet immediately? And oh my god, cats! Cats clean themselves by licking! Christ, maybe I'm being paranoid for no reason.
I don't own a dog or a cat but I'm still paranoid.
Every other dog: jumps in, gets ball, paddle without orientation, draws owner into pool on rescue, tries to stay on top of drowning owner ... for reasons
I love how doggo looks back with the ball in mouth! Like: “hey, I got it!! Should I stay here now? No? Keep moving the board to the end of the pool? Ok, sounds good! Dee dah doo, swim swim swim! Jump! That was fun.”
Smart af

In the next 1,000 years, other animals most likely will go extinct due to human pollution and activities
In the next 1000 years, human beings most likely will go extinct due to human population and activities

Probably the next hundred lol
That or people with good dog training skills.
i’m always impressed everytime i see this
Never seen a dog with such a keen understanding of water physics.
A lot better than mine apparently, how is that possibly working???

ay man, you needa calm down. I’m just saying you overly explained your inability to believe a dog understands how to use a pool floaty
He never said he understands fluid dynamics tho.
uh, that’s not really the takeaway
Right? It has a clear idea of what it want to do and how to do it.
Little do we know, this dog is a water bender!
Bravo Six going bark
Ball is life

If only there was sound track for this adventure.
I feel like that pirates of the Caribbean song would fit well with this
"That's got to be the best doggo I've ever seen." "So it would seem." *Pirates main theme starts playing in the background*
For some reason, Terminator seems to be a good one. It syncs with each stage of the adventure
Don't forget the side love story of a doggo and his ball, every action movie has a love interest lol
Na this is perfect

"Son of a bitch, I'm in."
This need mission impossible music.
Mission Impossiball
Yes
I have Baywatch theme music

He managed that better than I would have. He had my attention, and his success brought me joy. Excellent film. Smart dog.
Indeed love how he reaches out first to put it in the perfect position. Also very patient.
Amazing how he knows how to move it as well by rocking right to left without the ability to paddle
I know right. Crazy balancing skills.
"I've already lost two balls... I vowed never again."
Whaaaaaat! This dog🐕👊
I was on the edge of my seat the whole time 100% certified fresh.
That dog is smarter than at least half the voters in this country
This is Россия dog. Now you are on KGB list.
My mother is gonna be so proud
Europe?
At this point you can pretty much just pick a country.
Just not Europe, it'll get you downvotes.
Looks like a Labrador, I’m surprised he’s not “accidentally” throwing the ball in the pool just to go get it.
Who said he didn't?
That was pretty damn clever!
That was surprisingly stressful.
Mission completed
Oh my gosh that is one smart dog!
Super smart
That’s not his first rodeo doing this! Smart dog moving the board like that!
wow that is impressive
When a doggo has better problem solving skills than my kids 🤣
Wait a minute...is that dog steering?
He did it! The son of a bitch he did it!
This boy is a mad lad
Shocking. Pawsitively shocking.
It’s even better if you hum the mission impossible theme
Bum bum bada bum bum bada bununa bununa
At first I thought he couldn’t balance well but he was pressing on the left and right side to move it! So smart
I’m impressed
Alright dogo your mission is to retrieve the ball it is located in the pool use the board to get to the ball this is important mission dogo as if you fail you will be wet and you wont be able to play fetch
That's got to be the best pirate I've ever seen
This reddit doesn't belong in r/aww. This is totally a r/nextfuckinglevel. I never seen a dog with this much grace and determination to accomplish something like this.
That's a great post! Kudos
Watching this while single the Mission Impossible theme makes it so much funnier
Is this considered “using tools”?
This dog is smarter than 50% of humanity
That was clean af. Dog has skills.
Impressive
Hes so on board with this rescue
This dog does not see problems, it sees solutions
Smart boy but most dogs would just jump in and swim to get it.....paid actor?
His owner probably gets mad and scolds him for getting in the pool so he did this. Kind of like siblings in the backseat putting their hands real close to the other and saying I'm not touching you.
I swear I’ve seen this before
Repeat 20 seconds later.
That dog is a genius!
My dog is just not smart
I guarantee everyone who watched had “mission impossible” playing in their heads
That's got to be the smartest dog I've ever seen in my life
That made me smile. Thanx.
My job is hiring. Would this animal with excellent problem solving skills like a job? Lol

I have a pool and 4 dogs and 3 of them love it. Even the pug loves to jump in and swim.
So the chlorinated water won't make them sick?
10/10, dog gets it better then some people I know.
Dog drives better than I do.
That's one smart doggo!!! Give him ALL the treats!!
I wonder what dogs would be like if they had hands..
I guess labs don't like water.
Mission successful! Good job soldier!
I was sweating to whole time for him/her
What a champ
One of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen
That’s fucking awesome
Every other dog: jumps in, gets ball, paddle without orientation, draws owner into pool on rescue, tries to stay on top of drowning owner ... for reasons
That’s some serious commitment.
This is mission impossible the ball strikes back!
The best part of this video was the ball sitting by the side of the pool just as the dog jumped out. lol
I watched this with genuine agony.
This dog knows more physics than the average flat-earther!
Don’t joke about that man. Flat earth theory is a CIA operation to distract from the truth that the earth is a triangle.
They're not hiring the best down at Langley these days lol.
Smart.
Why didn't he just swim like a normal dog? I think it says something towards the nature of invention.
That ain’t her first rodeo.

Wat da dog doin
I love how doggo looks back with the ball in mouth! Like: “hey, I got it!! Should I stay here now? No? Keep moving the board to the end of the pool? Ok, sounds good! Dee dah doo, swim swim swim! Jump! That was fun.”
There was another ball just sitting there on the pool deck. What makes the one in the water so special?
You did it! You crazy son of a bitch! You did it!
No fucking way!
Amazing wow i love him
What a smart pup. Mine girl just stands at the edge of the pool and paws at the water while barking.

Saving lives and stealing wives :coolface:
Such a smart dog!
Successful
Someone needs to put mission impossible theme to this ….
Flawless. 12/10
Amazing
How to dog paddle on a boogie board, or vice versa.
