I have a dog called Mishap, a border collie who is smarter than me and owns my entire heart. She can do 48382728 tricks, comes to work with me as an unofficial therapy dog and helps me tidy up.

I can't send photos but here is our YouTube

I also have a few honorary crows who would be deeply offended if I referred to them as pets, so let's call them close friends. They hang out on my balcony, follow me around the neighborhood and sometimes eat out of my hand.

I recently lost the last of my gerbils - Cardboard, Dog, Wreckage and Ruin.

Oh my goodness I love border collies! My family dogs growing up were both herding dogs, a border and an aussie mix. I miss them dearly and would love to have a dog like that again, but dont have the space and time needed to properly care for a high energy working dog.

Me too! They're my favourite breed. What were yours called? Mishap is my first ever dog and everyone told me border collies were an inadvisable starter dog, but i had my heart set and I'm so glad I didn't take their advice! She's incredible. I taught her to do the conga a couple of years ago.

In puppy training class the two border collies were learning everything immediately and the instructor told everyone else, don't judge your dogs by border collie standards, they'll fall short.😂 Keeping her mind stimulated when she picks up anything I try to teach is a challenge, but the best kind of challenge. People stop us in the street to ask how she's so well trained. It's because she makes up for my deficiencies!

Mine were Misty (the aussie) and Bud (the border).

Here's Bud as a very old man in 2011. I'll have to dig through my picture boxes of film photos to find a good one of him and Misty.

I very much want a dog again, but am currently in a very cat-populated house with not-dog-people. For now I'm enjoying being the favorite aunt for my friend's dogs, Malekai and Freyja.

AAAAAH he was gorgeous! I'm so sorry you lost him, I live in dread of that. Love the bandana, Mishap has a similar one. Right now she's wearing one with a baby Yoda pattern! I imagine you shared my agony during shedding season though. I'd vacuum every day and still wake up with dog hair in my MOUTH

I get way too excited about dog pictures. There can never be too many dog pictures.
