Default Determine if item is in a range of items

I'm wanting to check if a value in one cell is in a range of other cells.
(For example, A1 contains "dog" and B1 through B10 contains a list of various
animals. I want to know if "dog" in the list.) I know I can program a loop
and compare item-by-item, but I'm guessing there's a couple of one-liners
that will do it more efficiently, like loading the range of values in a
collection then inquiring if the single cell value is in the collection.
Cannot seem to find anything in Help to steer me in the right direction.
