The pic is not that bad. No foot in the pic, just a sneaker and sock. My
Golden Retriever, as a pup, did more damage to one of my shoes than that
mower. :-)

Best dogs ever. Will love you to death. Both sides of our family have had
them from way before they were popular. Lots of great stories. But them
razor puppy teeth......they're like a buck saw on anything they happen
across...

...and except for the hair. Sheds 24/7/365. Vacuum one day and have
little tumbleweeds in the corners next day. We have a central vacuum and
the app. 25 gallon can gets filled to the top with hair every couple of
months. Enough to build another dog.

Apparently, that is not new. The Scots used to use the shed and brushed
fur from their collie dogs for jumpers. As I own a Collie I can attest
to fact that she sheds enough to make a three piece suit every year :)

A Scottish breakfast

1. Porridge
2. Glass of Scotch
3. Collie Dog




















The dog eats the porridge
