Strange pets...........
Our dog now as a fetish for trampolining, cant get her off it, the fun bit is when she sits in the middle and and waits for you to bounce her up in
the air......
odd, very odd.

My terrier used to like to ride in/on things. He would skateboard and if you were trying to use a wheelbarrow he had to be shut in the house. We had a
pile of rubble in the yard when we were doing some work and he went missing, he had dug a burrow and gone to live in it.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

when I was alot younger we used to make go kart type things with our dad
just old lawnmowers and such
when we were driving them the dog used to chase us - if he got the chance he'd reach over and pick up a front wheel, while we were going about
10-15 mph !
(felt faster when your 3" off the ground and 8 years old)
the dog did this so much over the years his front kanine [spelling?] teeth were worn to short flat stumps

Our jack russell prefers the fox variety of poop, doesn't half stink the car out if he's rolled in it then jumped in the Thames 
But then he's nothing compared to one of our retrievers, if he was human he'd probably be diagnosed as autistic. Can't be dealing
with change at all, cops a strop if you upset his routine, and went a bit mental last time we decorated the lounge, refused to come in for a few days.
Doesn't like fireworks to the extent that after he's heard the first lot around october time he will not go out in the garden in
the dark until february (seriously, not at all), not bad for a supposed gun dog. And he quite often manages to get 'stuck' in the
kitchen/utility room/bog despite the door being either wide open or not there at all in the case of the kitchen, he'll just sit there whining
until you come and lead him over the threshold. Total headcase

We used to have a Doberman that went mental at traffic cones. Despite being attack trained and totally obedient, in this instance, he would totally
ignore any commands until he had; a( totally destoyed it in situ, or b) been allowed to bring it home to destroy in the garden.
You don't half feel a plonker walking a dog home with a bloody great orange and white traffic cone in it's gob!
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

Back in my skydiving days one of the instructors had a Jack Russel that liked to get inside his jump suit when he was jumping. My old Dobermann liked
to watch nature programes on the box.

Truer than you might think!
Trying to get him to leave one was the only time I had to prove to him who was the boss. After that I let him keep them,
I didn't want to push my luck as he got bigger. He finished up at 32 inches at the shoulder and seven and a half stone, without an ounce of fat
on him.

The other thing our dog used to do is bark at the roadwork signs. You know the ones showing a man shoveling. We found it soooooooooo funny

Well, then there's Bruno, the English Bulldog who was born and raised on the beaches of Koh Samui. He knows neither cars nor cats to bark at...
Bruno chases speedboats. Whenever a speedboat roars past 'his' piece of beach, he has t go run after it, and follow it until the speedboat
races off in the distance, or he runs out of beach or out of breath... Silly beast, he even looks like an ugly seal..

our current dog chases bikes, skateboards, etc ... and speedboats too
but she's afraid of water
so she runs from one end of the beach to the other and back at full pelt - stopping at each end for 30 secs to bark - she repeats this until she
collapses, sometimes times her paws are all cut from the rocks and barnacles...
the best bit is when she's running so fast she can't stop at the end of the rocks
