Where has the time gone 🥹 HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY ARIES ♈️
You are and will always be the forever puppy, acting as silly as you did on the day I brought you home.
You’ve made me frustrated and cry (A LOT) but you also make me laugh and smile every single day. You’ve made me a better trainer. You are well known as the unofficial favourite dog. There’s not a sport or activity you won’t try if I ask (although very clearly have your favourites) and you quite literally throw yourself into anything and everything you do.
Year 5 was absolutely fabulous adding a lot of accolades to your resume and I can’t wait to see where year 6 takes us 🥳
I love this little dog SO much and she is going to have a great day when she finally wakes up 🤣

Are your dogs enjoying our fresh snow fall? After 31 years I think I’ve finally figured out the right combination of layers and heated gear where I can ACTUALLY enjoy the snow with my dogs ❄️🐾

I missed National Australian Shepherd day yesterday (on my birthday of all days- how fitting). So grateful for the loves of my life. These are some badass, hard working dogs.

They are CERTAINLY NOT for everyone and I urge you to do a lot of research and ask questions when considering adding one to your family, actually, any dog for that matter. Aussies fit my lifestyle and my performance goals but they require a lot to meet their needs each day.

Any guesses on how we get everyone’s attention? 🤭👀 Such a fun group of Wednesday daycare dogs keeping warm in the snow! Don’t worry - outside time is modified in colder temps 🥶 thankfully there is indoor space and activities as an alternative!

MEET THE CREW: ARIES

If there was ever a dog in my current crew I could write a novel about, it’s this one right here. This is Aries, my almost (this week!) 6 year old Australian Shepherd, who may or may not have the unofficial title of my favourite dog. Aries is my merle tailed puppy I waited a LONG time for.

Aries is many things: athletic, hard working, a powerhouse on the disc field, comedic relief, the best bed dog, charming and endearing, too smart for her own good and one of the sweetest little pups around. She is also incredibly insecure and fear reactive which at times makes living with her in the world difficult. I won’t bore you with the details too much but she had many unfortunate and unplanned run ins with rude, scary dogs during prime social opportunities that left her with big feelings of the world. She has come SO far in her training journey and being able to cope with these feelings.

Aries most favourite things in life are her frizzer and swimming, combine the two and her day is made. She has really come into her own in disc this year claiming many top placements in trials. She also really loves precision heeling, rally obedience and strength/conditioning exercises. She is all about the structure of these skills. This past year she was chosen for her first commercial and she fell in love with the sport of barn hunt. Truly, dog reactivity aside, she is the best bro dog. She loves sleeping in, hiking, camping, kayaking, paddle boarding, meeting all the people, beach runs and all the exploration one could ever need.

Many of you have seen the lunging/barking lunatic at the end of the leash, which I know is hard to look past. I’ve never hidden any of my struggles with her because she’s made me a better trainer and it helps others see that our dogs are not perfect either, but we are actively doing the work to help them navigate the world. She’s not perfect and she never will be, but I am forever proud of our journey together. For those of you with difficult dogs, keep chugging along and doing the work - I see you - you are not alone.

I am looking forward to seeing all that we can accomplish in 2025 ✨
