[Over here there is a video](http://www.urlesque.com/2010/03/18/dogs-art/)of various breed of dogs filmed at 1,000 frames per second as they leap to catch a piece of dog food. Some of them looks right majestic, while some are just downright comical.

One of the funniest things I’ve ever seen was a super-slo-mo film of a dog shaking itself dry after an outdoors bath. The dog was of medium size and looked like a classic rope mop (can you tell I’m not an expert on dog breeds?), and when it shook itself, it had what looked like a half-dozen distinct areas of revolution and twisting going on, accentuated by the length of its white fur, with water flying this way and that in every direction. Hysterical.

Awww, check out the bulldog there towards the end! He’s all, “I haz a happy!”

That’s probably a Komondor.

If they wanted “comical”, they should’ve included a pug.

The “Beck’s ‘Odelay’” dog! It might’ve well been, or at least partly of that breed.
