Some dogs were just born to be on camera.

One pup, Stanley the Collie, recently made a big splash on Network 10 Perth, a local news station located in Western Australia.

Just look at how he commands control of the conversation. And please, turn the volume up if you can to hear the chomp.

Here's how the collie's owner described the pup's viral moment:

"Not to underwhelm you, but he didn't do much," Stanley's owner, alicmack, wrote on Imgur. "A funny video of him went viral online and it was deemed newsworthy in my sweet, sleepy town.

Stanley is now one of the top posts on r/gifs, with over 49,900 upvotes.

Look at the video that made him web famous. He has a deeply intuitive understanding of balls.

Someone please make this pup an influencer, stat. He needs book deals, promotions, his own doggie clothing line. Stanley the Collie commanded that interview. He seized control of the mic, literally and figuratively.

He's a doggo model. This is a puppy thirst trap.

He knows his angles.

Internet, please make this pup a star. Thank you in advance!
