Two Prick-Eared Imbeciles Introducing Arrow and Kyah, two working line kelpies with laughably opposite personalities.

Dear Kyah is doing much better now that she doesn’t need a cone on constantly. She’s ended up with about 4 stitches and one big bald patch where the grass seed was removed. Poor possum has seen better days but she’s doing well 💕

Poor Kyah is in for a grass seed removal today… in her thigh, of all places. Unfortunately it’s that time of year, and with so much rain, the seeds are prolific. This is our first ever incident with a grass seed and my best bet is that she sat on it and it went straight in. Luckily she’s tough as nails and not bothered at all; she’ll be in and out of surgery in no time ❤️

This is your ‘sign’ to be present with your dog today. Get off your phone, get out of your head; instead, watch, listen and learn with your dog. When you truly engage with them, you see the world on a different level 💕

I stocked up on handmade Christmas cookies for my grooming business yesterday, and the kiddos got to try some free samples! Kyah and Arrow gave Brown Dog Bakery the tick of approval ✅

After massive storms here in Adelaide the other day, there are trees and branches down everywhere. The easy way to approach this issue would be to walk around them, but Kyah doesn’t do ‘easy’. Kyah tells me to stop being lazy and makes me walk over them 🤣

Been a wee bit lousy at updating this page, but a few weeks ago Arrow passed two more elements for his bronze Nosework title - now all he has to pass is a container search and he will have his bronze title! Unfortunately the trialling season is over for the year but we will continue to practice and can’t wait to get that last pass next year 😀

Morning? No thanks.

Me: Kyah, have you been in the bird room?
Kyah: No, why do you ask..?
Arrow: I haven’t been in the bird room! I’m the best boy! Pick me! 😀 😇 🥰

I’d like you to all rest assured that the Queen is, in fact, still alive and well, currently judging me from her throne. She is somewhat disturbed (and maybe a little touched, under the harsh exterior) by the sudden outpouring of love for her, but has requested, for those who truly want to show their devotion, gifts of snacks and tuggy toys instead of flowers. Or she’ll p**p on your lawn. 🤷🏼‍♀️

08/09/2022

Kyah and I are working hard on her dog reactive. We spent some time yesterday just watching the world; some of that world included a bulldog, a German shepherd, and a dog barking behind a fence. I supported Kyah through her feelings and ensured she stayed far enough away to stay under threshold, and she rocked it! In this video she is watching the bulldog whilst the GSD passed to our right, and being reinforced for checking in with me and not escalating her behaviour/emotional response. I love watching her make good choices in tough situations. Superstar 🌟

I forgot to share a very important piece of information. Arrow passed his bronze vehicle search for noseworks over the weekend! I let the poor bloke down on his interior search by calling his alert too early, so we still have three elements to go until we receive our bronze title, but most importantly, Arrow walked into the search area with confidence and he had a lot of fun in a challenging environment, and I couldn’t be prouder of that! 🥇

Kyah had a maintenance tune-up from Daniella at Holistic Dog, including a massage and thermal imaging to check for inflammation. She has a bit of a knot in her left shoulder and some muscular discomfort in her hind leg that we will keep an eye on. As a senior active dog, I’m very careful about her joint maintenance and physical health. Meanwhile, Arrow had major FOMO and tried reaaaally hard to be in the limelight 🙄 thanks for your wonderful, thorough work as always, Daniella!

Warming up that sniffer for his nosework trial 👃

01/09/2022

Arrow tried some noseworks at our local PETstock store last night, in preparation for his first trial this weekend. Arrow struggles in new surroundings and busy places so I wasn’t sure if he would be okay to search, but once he knew he was there to play the sniffing game, everything was alright! He did awesome ❤️

A little bit of nosework practice at the park for Arrow. Slowly preparing for his first trial, although we mostly do it for fun and confidence building :)

Not to cause any panic, but the couch has slurped Kyah up like a noodle. The SES are on their way.

Kyah said some swear words to the local cattle dog on her walk this evening but managed to keep from cussing out anyone else in the neighbourhood, so I’m very pleased with her for that! We practiced our ‘what’ve I got?” skills, where I toss a couple of pieces of food on the ground when she starts to notice her triggers, and she’s getting very good at it. Sniffing out the treats releases feel-good hormones and lowers her stress hormones, helping to calm her response. Maybe one day we’ll walk around the neighbourhood without calling the cattle dog names 🤣

Woohoo we finally have a new heater. No more suffering through the cold winter for these poor dogs 🤣 Arrow highly approves ✅

Gotta keep those old lady legs fit and strong 💪🏼 Kyah loves doing doggy push-ups in exchange for her bungee tug.

Hey all, Arrow here. Last night whilst helping build a pantry, I sat on Mum’s leg and released my bum glands, then slid down her leg to really deliver the full skid effect. I’m still confused as to why she wouldn’t let me sit on her lap anymore. Can someone explain? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Poor girl was just trying to chill out with the sun shining through the window when suddenly she was smothered with loves. The offence was too great 😑

The little check in after each howl to see if anyone is gonna reply really gets me 🤣🤣

When the tug-o-war is so good you don’t wanna stop, but you’re an old lady who gets tired easily 😴

Signs that good enrichment has happened in this house: rubbish scattered absolutely everywhere, and two nice, calm Kelpies 😇

What stupid kind of question is that??

Everybody say a little prayer for Brienne the Brachiosaurus. She is about to suffer catastrophic injuries.

The little head tilts!! 😍 they’re too much 🥰

There’s a virtual sea lion in the loungeroom and it’s cause for a heckin’ c o n c e r n 😅

This is why we LOVE noseworks. Arrow gets stressed out easily in busy environments and today at our local park, there was a /lot/ going on. He was quite overwhelmed and I couldn’t get any focus from him. There were children running and squealing, balls being chased, scooters and bikes being ridden and all sorts of activities that could’ve easily sent him over threshold. I did a couple of searches with his favourite ball, and nothing else in the world mattered anymore. A woman on her bike whizzed right past him during this search and he didn’t even blink. Noseworks is such a game changer for dogs who struggle with emotional regulation or confidence. We really cannot recommend it enough 💕

I was just minding my own business when Arrow started poking away at the buttons on the microwave 🙄🙄

Poor Brienne the Brontosaurus doesn’t stand a chance against this s a v a g e 🦕

TW: injections, needles. Arrow is currently undergoing immunotherapy in the hopes of helping to significantly reduce his allergy symptoms. We have worked really hard over the years to make injections a comfortable experience for him by building up a positive association and distracting him from the pain. Now that he’s having injections every three days, all our hard work is proving to be very useful. He had two injections tonight and didn’t even flinch. For a dog who is extremely body sensitive and naturally fearful, I’d say that’s a huge win. So proud of this brave lad 💕

Hands full? No worries, Arrow can get the door for you 😇
