142 dislikes? Who could dislike an Aussie? I'm not too fond of the tail docking thing. My blue merle seems to like his and I think I'd send him to therapy if he decided on such an extreme mod... oh, wait, like human circumcision, they don't choose...
he should try maybe a softball or something like that, a ball of roughly the same size that is not heavy (but heavier than a baloon) and bounces well. maybe this dog can learn the kind of headbounce harbor seals or anthony gatto can do.
and now i actually found it on youtube, a dog that does it, check it out: watch?v=BDeDtvg_6gE
That was a lot of fun, until I realized the dog was biting it's jaws, every time it nosed the balloon in the air. Then the video became a manual on distracting dogs, and it was fun again.
Call them whatever you like, but "Australian Shepherd" is on the official breed list of both the AKC and UKC. (The breed wasn't developed in Australia, though.) I can't say for sure if this dog is an Australian Shepherd, but it sure looks a lot like one.
Next time, hang a little rope from the balloon with a small toy. He should be able to grab the toy, pull the Balloon down, but never get the shiny floating ting itself.
To not only witness another species knowingly participating in a such game but also it doing well at said game because it clearly understands the basic gaming mechanics involved, is quite entertaining. Glad the dog had fun.
Must you contribute to the overuse of the ironic notion that intelligent things are "stupid"? It's the opposite of stupid (especially for a dog), and if a dog wanted it to hit the ground, the dog would allow it to hit the ground, it may not allow it to land because in actuality, the thing is that the dog is still having fun playing with the balloon. Having fun benignly predicting a balloons actions & managing to keep it in the air all day till one gets bored is far from indicative of stupidity

i'm an aussie and i can assure you there is no such dog as an australian shepherd. it's a blue healer / border collie mut. take my word for it.

The breed is Australian Shepherd. Hes a purebred, a "merle". The breed is not australian however, its an american breed raised for herding.
See? Hes herding balloons :)
