Lol looks like that kelpie keeps him busy. Any dog trying to keep up with a kelpie during the day is gonna sleep well at night (and hopefully be less of a pain in the ass in general).

I like to give my dogs a bit of freedom to roam around wildernessy areas offlead, seems to make them less likely to run too far away than if you consistently keep them on lead and then one day drop it or a buckle breaks or something. But yeah bones might have to have some rights taken away after that performance. I knew he'd come back but you don't know what could happen while he's running around people properties. Luckily it's a nice neighbourhood with just hobby farmers, not a real rural area. In a real rural area there's a good chance he'd get shot doing that.
