I think there is something else going on. The location of the video had to =
be very close to the epicenter to display the amount of movement. My eye sa=
w that the dog moved ~ 6 sec before the visable shaking. I would think that=
 being that close to the epicenter there wouldn't be surface waves. The sha=
king was probably the P and S waves. I am ~ 350 km from the event and I sho=
wed an abrupt P arrival. I think the dog was sensing something else. Maybe =
a smaller event just prior to the main event? Maybe looking on other helico=
rder sites in the area would shed some light as to whether it was ground mo=
tion.
