Most animals might be deterred by a chain link fence, but not the scrappy dog in this new video. The pup in question comes up against a fence, and instead of turning around and heading home with his tail between his legs, our intrepid explorer scales the fence.

Not only does the dog skillfully climb all the way to the top, but he lands successfully after leaping/falling several feet (are we sure this dog isn't part-cat?). This is either the smartest, best pup, or the beginning of some kind of dog zombie apocalypse movie.

We'll let you decide.
