Golden Retriever Duncan Smartest Dude at Diving Dog Challenge

I just loved this little blurb about Duncan. Is this one cool guy or what?

But the smartest dog at the Diving Dog Challenge was without a doubt Duncan, Drew Greer’s golden retriever, of Summit County. Instead of jumping in at the furthest point away from his ball, like all the other dogs did, Duncan ran around the pool’s edge, calculated the shortest distance from him to his toy, and then dove in.

“He dried off from the practice round and didn’t want to get wet again,” Greer said.

Smart dog.
