Serious wet dog smells

Last night I was watching Monday's Late Show with David Letterman.

He had the Purina Incredible Dog Challenge, with three dogs jumping into a pool.

The winner was Reggie, a 3-year-old black lab owned by Scott Conrad from Redline, Penn.

The beautiful dog jumped 25 feet 7 inches to win a loving cup filled with dog biscuits.

The great thing about having a TiVo — well, one of the great things — is being able to slo-mo at will. So I slo-mo'd Reggie as soon as he climbed out of the pool. It was incredible how he started shaking and the water fell away from him from his nose right down to his tail.

It was poetry in motion.

Unfortunately, the clip isn't on Letterman's Web site, but I managed to find a good example of what I'm talking about.
