🐾 Lhotse the Beagle’s Journey of Confidence 🐾

Once unsure of dogs, children, and the busy outside world, Lhotse is blossoming into a confident little explorer — nose down, tail up, and joy in every step! 🌍👃✨

Guided by her natural beagle brilliance, Lhotse’s journey celebrates partnership over pressure. Through scentwork and freework, she’s discovering that the world is full of possibilities, not worries — and that her instincts are something to be cherished, not controlled. Each session builds trust, curiosity, and connection.

A heartfelt shout-out to her wonderful guardian for embracing the art of doing with rather than doing to. 💕

This journey isn’t about perfection — it’s about confidence, choice, and the quiet magic of learning together. 🌟🐶

On Remembrance Day, we honor the sacrifices of those who served, and recognize the incredible bond between veterans and their devoted psychiatric assistance dogs.

These remarkable animals offer more than just assistance—they provide emotional stability, comfort, and a sense of security.

For many veterans coping with PTSD, anxiety, or mobility challenges, assistance dogs are a lifeline, helping them navigate daily life with greater independence and peace. Their unwavering presence is a testament to the healing power of companionship, and a reminder that even in the toughest times, support and hope are always within reach.

Life Unleashed by Integra is a non-profit founded by Veterans with one mission: to support Veterans and First Responders facing PTSD and related mental health challenges from their service. These incredible dogs help these individuals and their families lead happier, fuller lives.

This is the fabulous Perro who I have had the pleasure of working with over the last couple of weeks 💚

This month as I finished up my last day at Assistance Dogs Australia, I just wanted to whole heartedly thank the organisation, its board members, my colleagues, the clients, the volunteers and the dogs!

ADA has been a huge part of my career since 2009 (taking 4 years out to have children). I am eternally grateful to have been able to wake up each day and feel fulfilled, in knowing we are doing great work. Getting the opportunity to improve the lives of others is a privilege that lights me up—one I never take for granted.

ADA has given me immense opportunities to collaborate with colleagues not only in Australia but globally. Some of my closest friends have been made during this journey.

Every dog I’ve had the opportunity to work with has taught me something new—not just about them, but about myself. I’ve grown both personally and professionally from each of those lessons.

I wish Assistance Dogs Australia nothing but the best in their ongoing pursuit to enhance connection and independence for people living with disabilities. ❤️

Happy International Dog Day! 🐾💛

Today, we celebrate the dogs who show us what it means to live with purpose, joy, and unconditional love. They’re more than just pets—they’re our partners, our teachers, and our daily reminder of what loyalty and love truly look like.
For me, it’s not just about today—it’s about recognising how much dogs shape my life and work. Whether they’re beside me in quiet moments or out on a field trip, they inspire everything I do. Dogs have become my life’s work, and I’m so grateful for the chance to spend every day with them.

They show us what real loyalty looks like. They remind us to slow down, appreciate the simple things, and love with no conditions. Each dog has its own story, and that’s something worth celebrating—today and every day.

To all the dogs out there—thank you for being the heart of our homes and the inspiration behind everything I do. 🐕❤️

Winnie’s Wheelbarrow is one element of Freework we regularly use. 💖

Freework utilizes a variety of sensory experiences, including smell, touch, sight, hearing, taste, proprioception, and vestibular input.

The relaxed and exploratory nature of ACE Freework can help reduce stress and promote overall well-being in dogs

We love keeping Winnie’s mind and body healthy and that is why we would love to team up with to take our conditioning to the next level. ❤️
