Yeah, so I left my dog Mike W. alone for two minutes and came back home only to find him doing some macro shots and starting his own photo business...

He's very manipulative and knows when and how to look cute/guilty/happy.

I've had a few dogs in my lifetime but I never had a dog this loyal and committed to me. Often too smart for his own good though...

Get a couple new ones

Hah Hah! Working dogs generally are just as you say - smart, loyal and demanding companions.

I've always heard ACD's are among the best. I've had Alaskan Malamutes, a Welsh Corgi (dope - but a good dope) and Border Collies (!!) myself but we are without for now.

Nice series!

I'll gladly go down to Texas and try my best :P

LOL, at one time I had my dog jumping through a metal hoop for treats. But as the kind of dog she is she quickly figured out that it was not a work related action but a silly 'trick'. I had picked up the metal ring and she looked at the ring and back at me, walked over a couple of feet, sat down and never jumped through again. Ha Ha Ha. However, in her defense she rids the front porch of possums. skunks, raccoons, and copperheads.

Yeah, they're very prey driven for working dogs.

I bet your dog can't wait for the Pentax K-9 to come out.
