Some dogs are born with the ability to make impressive catches with their mouths . And some dogs , like Fritz the golden retriever from California , are not – as demonstrated by its owner , who collated the canine 's failed attempts to catch different food items in slow motion . Standing before the camera the dog initially looks calm , composed and ready to make its owner proud . Fritz waits patiently at the start of the video and looks composed before the first item comes his way . Spotting the piece of meat the dog licks its lips in anticipation and locks its eyes on the prize . The owner tosses the piece of meat , which travels in a straight line and at a good pace towards the dog . But as Fritz opens his mouth to make the catch , he leans back just too far and the meat hits him in the face . After licking its lips at the prospect of a piece of meat , the dog mistimes his jump and is clobbered with it . Leaning back too far the dog is unable to anticipate the flight of a doughnut and it hits him in the neck . Next up is a doughnut , and while not the healthiest piece of food for a dog , one would think the bigger surface area would surely make the task easier . Jumping too eagerly once more Fritz mistimes the doughnut 's flight and the food item hits him in the neck . With a new Stars and Stripes bandana comes new opportunities in the form of a meatball and a taco , but the dog once again makes a mess of the catches and the taco explodes against its face . The dog pulls out of his attempt to catch a taco and it smashes against his face and breaks apart . A strawberry appears to by flying directly into the dog 's mouth before it bounces off his nose . Gaining a crowd , the dog later attempts to catch a strawberry but despite following the flight of the fruit it ricochets off his nose and onto the floor . The final food items include a hot dog , which covers him in ketchup , and a slice of pizza , which collides awkwardly with his ear . The video concludes with a moment of success as the golden retriever manages to catch a single chip with the side of its mouth . The dog follows the flight of the hot dog but is unable to catch it and is instead covered in ketchup . Success at last ! Finally , against all the odds , the dog manages to catch the single chip that comes his way .
