    And ears that could be used for receiving signals from outer space. I had a border collie many years ago. It's fair to say he outclassed his owner and most of the human race;). I currently have three dogs, one of which is an 8 month old giant Schnauzer called Lola :D

    43.73 miles to add for me.

    I have a chocolate lab but he's getting older and slower. Used to walk for miles with him but we are lucky if he will go round the block these days bless him.

    The ears are a bit :eek: he even sleeps with them up like that :rotfl:
    I should have added that he is not that clever as he still insist on walking across right in front of me no matter how many times I have stood on his feet ir kicked him :o

    He also hates getting his picture taken to the point of walking away from his food if he as much as sees the camera.

    Another 70+ mile week for me last week, I'm not sure if I am walking the pup too much or if he is walking me too much :rotfl:

    I am walking 2 dogs next week but I won't be able to walk them together as mine is a bit too bouncy round the older dog so I will need to try to balance them out a bit :eek:

    Not tallied mine up from last week. 06.00 starts, out in the evening with customers, literally no chance to walk. And today it is bucketing down:(
