As you guys know, I love dogs – so glad to have my two big ones Gideon and Levi with me during this Wuhan Flu epidemic. That’s why I wanted to point out that one BBC sports broadcaster has taken to commentating on his dogs’ antics during the shutdown. Olive and Mabel are just regular dogs. Not even that energetic. Just dogs. But since Scottish sports broadcaster Andrew Cotter has no actual sports for which to give a play-by-play, he’s resorted to making videos commentating on his dogs. The results are delightful. This one shows the two dogs trying to get to the bottom of their food bowls. “You can see the contrast in styles: Mabel heavy tail use, happy to be alive, everything’s amazing,” Cotter said as the two dogs started to chow down. “Olive: more steady, wasting little energy, very much of the old Labrador school. Eating’s a serious business.” Watch it: I was bored. pic.twitter.com/bVoC0hyNzC— Andrew Cotter (@MrAndrewCotter) March 27, 2020 More recently, Mabel and Olive battled for control over a chew toy, though “battled” might be too strong a word for it. “Some sports are slower,” Cotter wrote. “More about the strategy.” Some sports are slower. More about the strategy. pic.twitter.com/JMBaGJ1tSd— Andrew Cotter (@MrAndrewCotter) April 9, 2020 Don’t worry. Both dogs got treats. (Though Cotter says their newfound fame on social media has gone to their heads.) I love seeing these canine commentaries. The world needs more antics of Mabel and Olive right now.
