Okay, I'm in. Most of you guys have no kidding working dogs (hunting, K9, etc.) Mine COULD be, if we only had a bunch of sheep or little kids and open wells, but we don't.
In an area populated primarily by three breeds; Labs (of any color), Pit mixes (BOP) and Chihuahuas, I have had Collies since 2013, and a Sheltie I inherited from my mom before that. Our last two were quite old, and left us in March and April. We thought we should get another, and wanted a younger one this time (the previous were rescues and 8 & 10 when we got them), so we found this guy at a rescue in NOVA, a 2 and a half year old named Brody. Holy crap, is he a handful compared to our older ones.

Our older ones, now gone...

Brody (or "Hell Dog" as I sometimes refer to him...)

He is much longer and taller then my old boy, and no counter is truly safe from that long-ass snout of his.
Thinks he's a lap dog
