Sorry for the quality loss. iTunes decided to crash during it's last update which limits After Effect's ability to export movies properly.
Follow Through and Overlapping Action basically helps to make something look more realistic in that it looks like it's obeying the laws of physics and such more. The most common example when learning this principle is the ears or jowls of a dog because they're so floppy.
In particular, with the jowls of a Dog, I've actually had someone come up to me to say that Dogs purposely open and close their mouths while running for some reason. This is obviously untrue, but I think the problem was they mistook the moving jowls for mouth movement where actually, the jowls just flop about.
This particular example has been heavily exagerated. As a secondary action, this can help to show the strain of running and energy of the character or show off a more goofy cartoony side to some dog characters.
