I was bored and stumbled across this video on myspace of a Sheltie pup (who is now a Sheltie angel) playing with the puppy in the mirror. It gave me a good laugh so I thought that I would share it!

Here’s another laugh-’til-you-cry story from Hondo at the Wild Bunch (as always, unedited, just as John wrote it), told from the viewpoint of a stray dog:

A Scottish Laugh
