Dog and Pony Show

Corgi hitches a ride on pony

Callie Schenker of Bolivar, Missouri encountered an adorable horse thief: a neighbor’s corgi who had hopped onto the back of her one-eyed pony Cricket. The quick-thinking  Schenker caught the rustler on her video phone just as they disappeared into the night. After posting the video to Facebook, she was inundated with messages of delight as the video galloped across the Internet. (More photos at Springfield News Leader.)

    Could the pony have been lying down when notorious horse thief Shorty McStumpers hitched a ride?

      Hmm yes, what is the high jump to body length ratio for a corgi?

    I was listening to the NPR Politics Podcast from yesterday, and they do a thing at the end called “Can’t Let It Go” at the end, where they talk about something on their mind, politics or otherwise. One of the host’s talked about this video! 🙂
