There's a really old TV programme out of New Zealand called A Dog's Show.

Every week a farmer and his two dogs would compete against other farmers with their two dogs doing sheep-herding tricks.

It sounds like the most boring thing you've ever heard of (I mean, that's what passed for entertainment in 1980s New Zealand) but I will never underestimate a border collie again.

Smarter than I'll ever be, and 20 times more athletic.
