Want to wipe out your bamboo?
Adopt a border collie from the animal shelter.
They destroy a lot of them every year because so many people get them as
cute puppies, then have no idea how to handle such a hyperactive dogs.

It's very sad.

NO NO, Border Collies are beautiful animals, but they need a job and
if they don't have one they make their own job. It's usually
destructive behavior and torture for the animal.

We would love to get another dog or two, but we have the parrot now
and she really doesn't like anyone other than us. A dog could do some
real damage to her if she ever tried to dive bomb a dog.

If we ever did get another dog it would be an adopted mutt, certainly
never buy a puppy from any breeder. There are enough shelters full to
the brim.
