Anyone else taking part?

Ben the border collie will be coming in with me at lunchtime. He'll be hanging out with a springer spaniel, malamute and a black Labrador (all under one year old) and maybe a couple of others if my lot can get their acts together and remember their dogs this year.

If you do it, don't forget to take pics and post them here!

I would but I doubt I would get any work done as I would be throwing the ball for her most of the day biggrin

Not a problem I have, as at my place he ignores me most of the time and laps up the attention from everyone else. When he's hungry is about the only time he'll head over to my desk.

Here he is from last year, looking proud as he's helping his dad earn money for meat:

Day early but one of our springers has accompanied me to earn some pawket money today. She's not being much help as zonked out asleep under my desk.

As above she's not that interested in me at work as everyone else gives her biscuits!

Ours are usually around the office while I'm working. Especially if I have a packet of biscuits on the desk.



This was taken a few minutes ago, upon acquisition of some Hobnobs!

My Border Collie would spend 8 hours running person-to-person in the office using his snout to force their hands off their keyboards and into optimal head-rubbing position.

Then he would make stupid excited growling noises while getting his head rubbed.

Then he would get overexcited, drink too much water and wet himself all over the carpet tiles.

Then every time someone stood up he'd dart over to them at 480mph and squirm through their legs forcing his head into their crotch to stop them walking away because they should be rubbing his head not walking away.

Sounds great I'll do it!

Other than the peeing on the carpet bit, that's exactly the same response my Jack Russell cross King Charles would have, it would be mayhem!

she's normally to be found doing her best impression of a pogo stick at the nearest person, Molly's got all the love and affection of a King Charles applied with the nuclear powered energy of a Jack Russell.

My Lhasa cross would bark at everything before chewing on some vital cabling.
