As a species, we are an inventive lot and come up with new inventions and new skills, but canines have, it appears, somewhat kept pace. Sure they are not going to be surfing the net anytime soon, but I sincerely have no basis to say that this...

... would have happened fifty years ago. Yes, I know its a series of tricks and there are specific cues for the dog to perform each deceptively simple task..
.. but so is beating a video game. :P
Those who haven't seen it yet, watch and enjoy, and those of you who can dance better.. enter the talent contest at your next convention. You stand a good chance of winning.

I am now reminded of Bill from King of the Hill attempting to do this and having the dog he acquired try to kill him.
It's such a cute video! A wolf friend of mine said she couldn't dance and implied something about her dogish mindset causing it. Well, now she has no excuse!
You can tell that dog is having so much fun. It's an attention hound, that's for sure.
Thanks for showing this! =^.^=
