The dog is lying flat on the ground. He felt the ground move first because he was directly connected to it.

The only direct connection jelly belly in the ergonomic chair had to the ground is his feet, if that.

:37.5 dog freaks
:39 jb’s chair swivels as he starts his bug out
:40 quake now strong enough to open top drawer of light beige file cabinet in foreground.

1.5 seconds doesn’t give special powers to the dog, he simply felt the smaller vibrations first because he was lying flat on the ground.

If the dog had been agitated or howling for the previous 30 minutes, that would be a little more impressive. But it wasn’t and is totally relaxed until 1.5 seconds before we see jelly belly bug out.

Yep. At the end of the tape from the other view you can see the security camera through the window on the wall at the top right start to jiggle up and down right at :37.5 as well.

You may be correct. When we had our last 6.8 here in the Puget Sound, I can remember feeling a light roll that would not of been picked up on camera that lasted for a second or two before the real shaking began. Even if the dog did have a more acute sense, that 2 or 3 seconds of early warning is not enough time for the human brain to react to it. By the time we are cussing out the dog for nearly running into us, we got a ceiling tile hitting our head.
