nancy Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 This is a great but scary story form the Yorkshire post about a border collie who hid in a car trunk (boot, of course, in the article). http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/highlights/...ives.3450722.jp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca, Irena Farm Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 I once visited a friend's farm and her young Border Collie jumped in the back of my van while we were inside chatting. I came out to leave, closed the hatch, and headed home. It was almost an hour drive and many times I would stop for a meal on the way home, but thank goodness I didn't that time - it was in the nineties and he would certainly have overheated locked in the hot car for even a few minutes. For some reason he just lay back there quietly, enjoying the ride, until about 45 minutes into the trip. At that point, I saw his head pop up to look out the rear window. I was so used to seeing my own dogs ride back there, that it took me maybe as long as a minute to remember I hadn't taken any dogs along that trip. Since no harm had been done, I had the fun of teasing my friend when I called to ask her whether she knew where her dog was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Oh yeah. Been there. I was on a backpack trip last summer, and at one point the trail crossed a logging road where there was a car parked with a couple of people in it. I stopped to talk with the people, and after a minute I realized my dog had disappeared. A quick search turned up this happily snoozing border collie deep in their open trunk (boot): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
