All it takes is an obstinate ewe on the other side making him look bad, and he's off.

(8,554 posts)5. We used to have a dog that loved to fly like that...
when I was young, we had a Border Collie mixed with one of those Kelpies. Absolutely highest jumper I've ever seen. Tho he was a working dog, playing with him, sailing a frisbee for each one of his amazing catches... those times remain some of the fondest memories of my life. He would climb up trees after me, was constantly on alert, just waiting for a whistle or nod from one of us.
Thanks for sharing, Iching!
