60 Minutes





September 24.  On this day in 1968, a TV news program called "60 Minutes" had its debut.  And one of my all-time favorite stories on the show was this one about Chaser, the Border Collie.  Watch this when you have the time to do so - it's about 13 minutes.

That particular segment was filmed in 2014 - so I was a little nervous to see how Chaser and his human are doing now.  I am happy to report, they are both doing well - and have their own Facebook page AND website:

They even wrote a book.  Given how smart Chaser is, I assume he wrote the thing himself - with edits by his human.

Chaser is a VERY smart dog.  And clearly his human has LOTS of time to train him.  That's our excuse.  We haven't been able to demonstrate our brilliance yet - but WAIT until my human retires.  Someday.  THEN she'll have time to train us.  Mind you, I'm not sure where we are going to put those 1000 toys.  And it's obvious Chaser doesn't DESTROY toys like the dogs in THIS household.

Time to get my human moving - it's Sunday and we know she doesn't want to miss a single minute with us guys today.  Good thing we got her up at 5.

Have a good one.  Peace and paws up!
