Thread is a month dead, but some observations... others might be interested.
f/5.6 at 1/1250 at ~ISO 800
The pictures are too tiny to see, but it appears to be bright overcast, because only the most vague shadows are visible. ISO 800 and Sunny 16 would say 1/800 second at f/16. 1/1250 is only 2/3 stop from 1/800, and f/5.6 is 3 stops from f/16, so this is 2 1/3 stop from Sunny 16, which is about right for bright overcast, which the shadows suggest (but these are hunches, I really cannot see anything - but this is obviously what is being metered).
Camera mode is Manual, but Auto ISO is on, so it is still automatic exposure. Since aperture and shutter are fixed, Auto ISO simply reacts as it must, as demanded to match these settings, and it is still metered auto exposure. ISO isn't changing much, 800, 900, 1000, 800, only a 1/3 stop range, but first and last are the same 800.
The dog throws up a big bright white splash dead center, which becomes brighter than the black dog in the first two, which should affect the reflective metering, which should shut down exposure to become a bit underexposed. That is simply how white meters, a bit underexposed, and black tries to be a bit overexposed. Meters do meter what they see, and the first two see a black dog, and the last two see much brighter center white splash. Surprised it stayed this constant, but 1&4 are the same, but 3 is 1/3 stop brighter.
If you want to avoid this (to seek constant exposure), then use same manual exposure mode ( so it won't vary), and after you experiment with ISO results to see you can use ISO 800, then use ISO 800 (turn off Auto ISO so it won' vary), and then the exposure will be fixed, and it will not vary with the splash scene that the meter sees.
