Singapore and the UK have banned this ad for Australian tourism in their respective countries.

Singapore I can understand, but the UK? The people who brought us this and this and this?

New Tricks:
I've discovered recently that Laika is quite capable of learning new tricks. We just don't teach her the right ones. We've managed to teach her "crazy disembodied head", which is when she puts her head between a person's legs and proceeds to try to attack alternating hands (she prefers it if you scissor your hands in front of her face). She's also learned how to herd us out the door for walkies. I've recently been trying to regain the balance of power before walkies by having her "sit" and "drop" before going out. We're also working on "stay", she's almost got it. We're still working on "shake", I suspect we will be for awhile.
