Animal Planet once had a "doggie competition" from Australia where different breeds of dogs were put through some silly paces by their owners.
One event consisted of taking the dog up a path about 50 yards from the owner. The owner called, and then the dogs were timed on how fast they got back to their owners.
The Yorkies were fast, even with little legs. The Labs, down to the last dog, all ran past their beckoning owners, and jumped into a pond and swam around.
heh, we can see that, having had one that would have felt right at home doing the same thing.
*snicker*
I'd love to see that show! Too funny. I know my brother's Golden woulda done the same, too. He looooooved water.
Speaking of which, we've just been out watering the garden, so Cisco is soaked. Funny how that happens.
And Cartman helped me with the garden for awhile. Or something. Dunno why he'd bother coming over hear when it's so hot!
