( our dog) .......The Clever Kelpie A kelpie dog was being discussed in a country pub in Queensland. 'That there dog of mine's a bloody marvel,' said the proud bushman. 'He does just about everything. He brings in the cows, goes out after rabbits, gets the mail from the post-office, yards the sheep ...yes, he does just about everything.' 'Well,' said the stranger, 'if he's such a flaming marvel why don't you call him in and let me buy him a beer.' 'Now, fair go,mate,' said the bushman. 'That's one thing I won't allow. It would'nt be right, seeing as he's got to drive me home.'
