The funny clip, shared on Instagram, humorously dramatizes the owners of a dog needing to find creative ways to shield themselves when Burt, the Newfoundland, shakes off water from its coat after emerging from the backyard pool.
“I know he knows what he’s doing when he sidles up next to a human before shaking,” says the video’s caption, which has already garnered over 13 million views, nearly 900 thousand likes, and thousands of comments from amused internet users.
“This might be one of the greatest reels of all time,” admitted one Instagram user. “Are you guys film students? If not, you should be. This is cinematic art,” commented another. “The acting is impeccable,” affirmed a third internet user.
If you’ve ever wondered why dogs feel the need to shake when they’re wet, you’d be surprised to learn that this action is extremely efficient, according to the American Kennel Club. Wet dogs can shake off 70% of the water from their fur in just four seconds, which is much more effective than trying to dry them with a towel.
