While she could have been let out, it was a border collie. Those dogs are smart. I had a border collie which could turn on the stove, climb trees, and figured out how to get to the Christmas presents on top of the refrigerator. Open a door? That’s easy.
I had a border collie who unwrapped EVERY SINGLE Almond Roca in a can with his little black lips one night. I came out that morning - looked like there had been a huge caterpillar hatching! He never missed a beat - didn’t get sick or anything. Those border collies are amazing.
