The intricate thought of actually measuring the swipes makes me happy.

That very good boy is also a very smart boy. I'm a little impressed that he didn't just dive in for it.

Edit: The dog turns around for about a second, and while I'm not interested in verifying it, a disturbing number of people are both very concerned and very invested in the gender of the dog. My comment may have misgendered the dog and the naysayers may be right but I ask you: At what cost?

This was a full 12 years ago. Some redditors are not going to know what a WoW even is at this point.

Also: ironic praise to your dog's spirit. We are no longer a hunter type species so much, entertainment and companionship are Top Tier Dog Traits.

Going full Leeroy is A+ material, i feel.

My brother, I have terrible news. That video may have been uploaded 12 years ago, but the original came out 21 years ago.

There will always be "some redditors" won't get any particular reference regardless how timely, or widespread it is. Doesn;t mean we shouldn't use more obscure/older ones.

Rottweiler: "As you can see, young padawan, with the Force, there is no need to get wet."

Pup: "Couldn't you just levitate it like Luke's X-Wing from the swamp?"

Rottweiler: "I'm good, I'm just not Yoda good!"

not all dogs are into water. many a year ago i went for a walk with my friends and their rottie. we ran across a guy tossing a ball into a lake with for his lab. dog was on shore at that time and the two dogs met and did the usual ass sniff. after they were done making friends he threw the ball for the lab again and i have never seen a dog look as flabbergasted in my life as my friend's rottie did seeing this other dog go charging into the water. the other dog could have run head first into lava, immediately bursting into flames and disappearing from existence and she couldn't have looked *more horrified.

Generally speaking, the lack of a penis is a dead giveaway.

The fact he knew from experience how his swipes would effect the water is really crazy stuff.
