They will kill us all as we sleep.

Can she balance Timmy being trapped in the well AND a sheep at the same time?

Having lived with a border collie for several years, this would be vaguely impressive if she was also juggling six tennis balls.

I wouldn't sleep if I were them after this.

Poor Zelda

I like to think that sad expression is a clever facade to disguise the plotting going on in her very well-balanced mind.

P.S. New series of horror films:
Revenge of the cats forced to dress up like babies
Revenge of the tiny dogs dragged around in starlets' purses
Revenge of all animals photographed in unseemly spread-eagled positions by neanderthal a-holess...
and a series built around the theme/meme "I CAN GIVZ HUMANS TOXOPLASMOSIS"
.

Aw, she reminds me of the dog at foodonmydog.com.

Good ol' Shep.

I think Zelda will be just fine. There's a Master:dog relationship going on there which means she'll put up with a lot of nonsense.
Would our dogs eat all the weird stuff I give them if we didn't have the same relationship?
OK, bad example. I forgot they were dogs.

Do you know how much I paid for my dining room table? A lot more than that mutt. Dog pound here I come!

Speaking of canine intelligence, I understand that the standard poodle (not the little yappy kind) is right up there in smarts with the border collie. The difference is illustrated by the following:
OWNER: OK, today we're going to learn a new trick!
BORDER COLLIE: Oh Boy! Oh Boy! Now I can show you how smart I am!
POODLE: You're kidding, right?

That's nothing. My St.Bernard doubles as a hide-a- bed.

Our old shepherd would have loved the training regimen for this. "Oh, damn! Sorry. Almost had it. Can we try that again, maybe with a little more weight? Oh, damn! So close (chomp, slurp.) One more time. Nearly there ..."

The Border collies are developing opposable thumbs in a secret underground lab. When they're done, we're in trouble.
Ruffin - I have turned down $3K for one of my BCs trained to work livestock. What'd you pay for that table?
Posted by: pogo | February 16, 2013 at 01:16 PM
It looks like it's one food group short of being a well-balanced meal.

My dining room table comment was to be dave barrish.Oh well blame it on my disposable thumbs.(is that correct? my thumb seems to appose me)
Posted by: ruffin it | February 16, 2013 at 03:50 PM
Is it just me or does dave barry look like somebody's bloated meemaw.
