My dog is actually very helpful around the garden. When time comes to pull some weeds out...he's right there overseeing the project. When we encounter some deeply rooted weeds...all we have to do is point to it and Mr. Bourbonowski grabs it, tugs it, and does the job.
I wish I had a video of that to show you guys...its pretty cool seeing him help out like that. Now...if he only had opposable thumbs...maybe he would do the dishes too.
