Dog shaking off water

The prompt “A wet golden retriever shaking water off its whole body, droplets flying outward”

Combines fur, high-frequency motion and particle physics. Brutal test.

Every model, same prompt

The clips on screen play together from the first frame, muted. Open one for sound, controls and our notes.

5.00

Most physically convincing of the four animal clips: shake propagates naturally down the spine, paws stay planted.

5.00

MiniMax H3

MiniMax
5.00

Correct rotational shake propagating from head to spine, droplets follow real parabolic trajectories.

5.00

Realistic inertial body wave and droplet ballistics, no artifacts.

5.00

Torsional body wave propagates correctly, droplets fly and fall under real gravity.

Sharp high-frequency shake physics, no smearing.

PixVerse v5.5

PixVerse
4.90

Physically convincing shake with realistic rotational momentum; only very minor foot slipping.

Kling 4.0

Kuaishou
4.83

Whole-body shake with droplets flying outward, after a cut at about 2.5 seconds from a close shot to a wider one. Checked frame by frame.

Wan 3.0

Alibaba
4.83

Wet fur and droplets flying outward, though the shake is concentrated in the head and ears more than the whole body. Checked frame by frame.

Vivix W1

Vivix
4.83

Wet fur and droplets flying outward in a plausible spray. A cut moves the dog from the lawn to a wet deck halfway through. Checked frame by frame.

FLUX 3

Black Forest Labs
4.83

Wet, matted fur and droplets flying outward in a plausible spray; the shake is strongest in the head and upper body rather than the whole body.

4.50

Realistic radial water-shedding and fur deformation; minor blur at peak shake speed.

Kling 3.0

Kuaishou
4.33

Believable shake and spray; torso slightly too rigid instead of rippling head-to-tail.
