Default Border Collie saves the day
So my dog wakes me up this morning at 4:45, just in time to catch the first drip over flowing from my 50g RO barrel. Whew. If I'd slept till 7, I would have been swimming in the kitchen.

(OK, he probably just got bored and jumped on my head, but he got a cookie anyway)

Rebuilding the frag tank, so 50g from DT goes downstairs to 50g. 50g water transfers to rock holding tank (need any rock???) then new water goes into DT. Big water change day
Too bad I can't teach the dog to do that for me...

The dog spends it entire life being hopelessly devoted and loyal. Now you want it to do water changes too!
Come on Brad, give the poor collie a break.
The dog did stop a flood after all.

Is that what we call eating a loaf of banana bread off the counter? Funny, I had a different description!

Who left the water running and went to bed? Most likely the same person who left the treats on the counter.
Now your just being petty (no pun intended)

Nope, black lab/rottie. And mine steals stuff off the counter as well and gets jealous anytime I work on the tanks, so I'm sure he'd be happy to see them fail.
