9/12: The Game
Border collies understand the rules of The Game. And they try, with all their might, to convey it to their humans. (That stare? It's Border collie mind meld: "you WILL understand what I am beaming your way!!!")
Except I *don't* understand it. It was tough when we only had Duncan: he'd run outside, lie down on the deck, and stare at us. Our turn in The Game! It got trickier when we added Ross to our household - more so when we added Spain. Now we have three Border collies who run outdoors, stop, and stare at us. Our turn.
To be honest - Duncan stares at us. Sometimes Ross will stare at Duncan. And Spain will stare at both of them. Or Spain will stare at Duncan, and Ross at both Duncan and Spain. It matters little. There clearly exists a set of complex rules of which we understand but little.
