and especially in placing the stick perfectly across the ditch. The animal kingdom never ceases to amaze me, both domesticated and in the wild.

that opens a new browser tab containing the original Twitter page and then it will play. I think it has something to do with my security software.

If worst come to worst, just search for "This dog has invented a new game" from any Twitter page.

Go luck, it's a cute video.......

but then, after you preview you probably need to delete a lot of unnecessary junk on the hyperlink.

It's an adorable video. We had a dog like that when I was a kid. She used to line up rocks on the dock then push one in at a time and dive in after it. She also cleared our a path for herself in the woods going down to the dock and she would push rocks off the top and slide down after them.

Thanks for the post!

Sure looks like he is enjoying himself. I swear the mixed breeds are the BEST. They seem to inherit the best traits of every breed in their gene pool. Louie seems like a joy to have around. I hope the rest of the litter got loving homes, too.

What impresses me is that he dug the trench himself and then invented the game of tossing the stick up in the air, which seems like it would have to involve some planning. I know he is only 1/2 Border Collie, but they are such intelligent dogs. They constantly amaze me
