Her tail sticking out of the pile and wagging is just the best.

Stella has been a favorite on Instagram for me for a long time. Bonus! She just got a new friend named Mabel!

What a good girl!
Stella knows fun when she sees it. Also, the tail wags.
Better than cats going through holes, that's for sure. Team Dog here.

I tend to be Team Cat, but that was absolutely brilliant.

I used to do that as a kid until one day there was a whole lot of very runny dog poop inside the leaf pile and I ended up with it smeared all over my hair, clothes and hands. And it was outside the church and my parents wouldn't take me home to get changed so I got to smell THAT for a what felt like the longest Sunday School lesson EVER.

Is this ALL of Stella's leaf jumps? Because if not this video is too short.

Yellow Labs are the best.
I miss mine: our "open-box" rescue dog is a good boy, but my childhood "blonde Lab" could climb a ladder and pick raspberries and open screen doors. She's 30 years gone and I still think of her often.

You could always loop it.
Like, on a video wall six feet high. Or in Times Square.
Hypothetically.

The guy is a genius. I never would have thought there could be so many variations on a dog jumping in a pile of leaves.
Good human.

Personal faves: Two wagging tails, out of one pile and into another, and the 'miss' then 4th wall glance back at the cameraman, "can I do that one again?"

You could always loop it.
Or better yet: run it in reverse so she leaps backwards out of the piles, then loop in both forward and backward runs in alternation!
