1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:05,120 Speaker 1: And Amanda jam I love my dog desperately, as you know, 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: little minig little mini dog. I saw a story last 3 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 1: week because Minnie is a sheep dog, she's a Border Collie. 4 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: I saw an interesting story on the ABC. They're talking 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 1: about how much money sheep dogs and cattle dogs save 6 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: the Australian economy. It is quite extraordinary. So a sheep 7 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,480 Speaker 1: dog or a cattle dog may cost you not minded, 8 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,760 Speaker 1: but if it's a full working dog on a farm, 9 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 1: fully bred for its job, can cost you about thirteen 10 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: thousand dollars. But A and Z research said that there's 11 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,879 Speaker 1: a significant return on that investment for farmers and for 12 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 1: the entire economy. Sheep dogs have a three billion dollar 13 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 1: impact on the Australian economy. And that's everything from savings 14 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 1: in labor to benefits for a country town, to cheaper 15 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,520 Speaker 1: meat and wool prices for all of US pet food, 16 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: veterinary services, all across the board. They are a huge 17 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: investment give the sheep dog. And as I was watching 18 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: that story, I looked over at my dog lying on 19 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: the couch on her back, all four legs in the air, 20 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: with a tongue hanging out, and I thought, yeah, right, 21 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: we're living the dream. I saw a story yesterday and 22 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: this was tired of an International Dog Day. This woman 23 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 1: says she's got a rescue dog, and she said he's 24 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: become a very dramatic jerk. It was her description, and 25 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: you know, here's what she said. He's so, he's our 26 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,479 Speaker 1: giant hypochondriac, is. 27 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 2: Very dramatic about the slightest pain. 28 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 3: He had one incident where he got the tiniest little 29 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,040 Speaker 3: cut on his paw and was so upset. We thought 30 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 3: that he was really badly injured and rushed him to 31 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,839 Speaker 3: the emergency room and the vet first couldn't find the cut, 32 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 3: and I asked her to check again, and she found 33 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 3: what she described as a paper cut. More recently, was 34 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 3: walking on the Greenway with a friend and he just 35 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 3: stopped and was shaking and looking at his paw and 36 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 3: freaking out. 37 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 2: And I tried to give a little bit of time because. 38 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 3: I now realized that he's dramatic, but it just wasn't stopping. 39 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 3: So I took him to the emergency room and the 40 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 3: vet found what she described as a mosquito by. 41 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 2: So again he got a cone and got some peat 42 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: beds for that. He was found as a street. I 43 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 2: don't know how he made it on the streets. I 44 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 2: love it. 45 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: Once again, he got a cone and some meds. 46 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 2: I want that dog's life shorten. The travel drum would 47 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 2: be for this what do we call it? 48 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: My dog doesn't deserve a day. 49 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 2: I don't know how he needed on the streets. 50 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: International Dog Day.
