Someone suggested a thread where we can share our pet pics. I'll bite! Here is me and my 9-year-old rescue dog, who rescued me from working too much. She is part chow and part border collie. I had to up the brightness on the photo because her black hair absorbed so much light that she just looked like a dark blob. OK with me because now my wrinkles don't show so much!
She has me very well trained. She doesn't run off when she goes outside because she has trained me to give her a treat every time she comes in on her own. She is also very talented in herding me to the doggie treat counter (away from the people treat counter).
Without her, I would not get my walk in every day. She is the perfect IP dog because she walks very slowly (45 min per mile) and is totally wiped out and ready for a nap after 1 mile. She is still training me to relax more and enjoy life.
