My Blue Heeler would scatter the trash from the kitchen into the living room if we dared leave her home for any reason. She would act just like the Husky in the gif when we got home.
Many years ago when I was a teenager, my family had a husky that did exactly that (pilfered fresh baked cookies off the sheet) only didn't get the cooking grate caught on her collar. I caught her in the act, as she was using her tongue as a spatula to flip them right off the tray. That was a smart dog, but she could be a real shithead. And yeah, she could definitely "think".
#1 We had to do that in shop class. Only difference with the first one was you made an X with the two boards instead of a corner. All with hand tools. Our shop teacher was great. Before we picked up a tool we had to be able to name every tool in the shop. Later we were introduced to power tools and welding.
We had to produce a mechanical drawing of a mortise and tenon joint, properly dimensioned and hand lettered. Once that was done, and graded, we then had to make each piece from an oversized, odd shaped block of wood. Had to be square, with parallel and uniform sides, and to be within 1/16" of the drawing, using only hand tools. Once the blocks were graded, we then were required to cut the mortise and tenon to a snug friction fit, flush, square, and again within 1/16" of the drawing. If you messed up, you started over. Mr. Hornbake was not accepting of excuses or shoddy workmanship. Learned a lot from him.

ReplyDelete#5 She outweighs the dog, not using it to her advantage.
