Ben my Border Collie dog doing his can trick Pt 1 / How smart are Border Collies?

[kiwidweller1]

yeah he seems to be a very smart dog and pretty cute too

Did you train him to lift the can or did he figure that out on his own? Somehow I think it's the latter. :)

No he figured that out all by himself.........the first time i saw him do it really amused me.......

What an amazing dog Ben is. He could almost have a channel in his own right. He's smart, he's cute, he's gorgeous and he seems to have such a sweet nature. Border Collies have to be one of the best breeds of dogs ever.

lol

aww I love Ben

He looks extra big. Is he mixed with something else?

[bobthepeaceful]

Yeah he's not a pure bred Border Collie. His Mum was even bigger but she was half German Shepherd and half Border

Collie but looked mostly like a big all black German Shepherd so as a result Ben is bigger than the average male Border Collie but with all their characteristics apart from size and one ear sticks up and one ear flops down which adds to his cuteness. His Dad was a pure bred border collie

I actually called him Ben because it seemed to fit with Border Collie! I also loved the song 'Ben' by Michael Jackson and the cover version by Boyzone.

How smart is your dog? I think my dog is the smartest dog in the world but of course i am biased! How about some videos and some comments from other dog owners?
