Dogs are stupid. Oh come on, they are. All of them. And this video proves my point.

Sure, this is just one dog out of a population of hundreds of millions, but he’s representative of the canine species. Just because I say so.

He starts out well. He’s happy, he’s running, he’s extremely pleased with himself. He’s invincible! He can do no wrong. He can jump onto the couch with his eyes closed.

Except he can’t. He leaps into the air too soon. He misses his target. He ends up lying on his back next to the couch. Because he’s a dumb dog. Just like every other dog in the world.
