It’s the copycat border collie version of “Close Encounters of the Basset Kind”.

I just searched the picture…

First, I found it on a website I think I linked to once before…
They sell expensive dog stuff, including clothes and accessories.

He is modeling an $87 doggie raincoat.

Don’t worry… It’s 25% off.

….

In another result, I found the photographer.

His name is Andrew Knapp, and this is his border collie, Momo.

He’s from Ontario, but they live in Vancouver, and now travel the world together… he’s a professional photographer, who has made a book of pictures of Momo, and has also worked him into photos for different clients.

Here’s a 3½ minute video about his work with his dog…

Who puts a jump parallel to the direction of travel, anyway?

Or was he trying to jump the whole length of it, not just over it?
That would be beyond overly optimistic.

He was trying to land on it and ride the length of the bar.

No, sorry… Not a winner.

Darwin awards are only granted posthumously.

They are not given for the specific behavior, but for using it as a method of removing oneself from the gene pool…. hence the connection with Darwin.

Unfortunately, the fact that he may have removed future generations doesn’t count.

I know there was one Peanuts special where Snoopy ended up in the dog pound, but could not believe how many Peanuts specials there had been! (45 according to IMDb!)

Inspecting the set? Taking stills for promo?
Getting his picture taken for his CV?

But …. sigh…. that’s the point.

Why.else would he do those things in that particular spot, if it weren’t one of his famous sets?

Would he be inspecting someone else’s set?

And of course, no, it wouldn’t have to be THAT set… it could be one of his other sets…

But the thing is, I was trying to make… you know… a joke. Hahaha?

If you do not know, a perfect score in ten-pin bowling is 300.

If he had rolled over 100 in candlepins for three straight, it would be pretty good.

Drive it up and park next to some showoff with a Hummer in the Target parking lot.

Just casually get out walk into the store.

The first time I bowled I was about 10 or 11, with my Girl Scout troop, at the (Air Force) base bowling alley.

I bowled like 17 or something.

The manager came out and gave me a little prize for the lowest score of the night.

I think it was the night. Might have been the week. Or ever.

Sigh….

….

BTW, it was a little keychain… Can’t remember what was on it.

I don’t think it was anything official… I think he just made it up to be funny.

Ha ha.
