This dog can catch a ball... and throw it?


Paul Papanek (that's him in the video) explains: "[Oscar the dog] came up with this little trick all on on his own, though we have worked together to kind of hone it to the fine skill it is. Letterman flew us out to NY to be on Stupid Pet Tricks just about a year ago. After having successfully gone through rehearsal, we were sitting in the green room waiting to go on- along with a couple of other dogs and a pig- and someone came in and told us that Dave had decided that he wasn't in the mood for Pet Tricks that night after all (he really wanted to spend more time talking to Sting...)"

If you watch closely you can see that they're just reversing the movie. The dog's not throwing the ball...unless of course he can somehow flick the ball with his tongue so hard that it simply shoots out of his mouth with nary the slightest movement of his head.

Watch closely.
