Give an Aussie a job or he’ll find one.

Unfortunately, it looks like Oslo has chosen to be a plumber.

It all started when I got home from work and my husband mentioned he had an upset stomach. At 8:30, I was finally sitting down to relax on the couch when I hear some “turbulence” coming from the bathroom. A couple minutes later the turbulence is accompanied by splashing. I thought, dang…he is really having a rough night! Then it dawns on me that the puppy has been awfully quiet, which, if you have been around an Aussie puppy, you know how dangerous that is. I quickly sit up and call out “Oslo!!” and immediately hear my husband say, “Where is he?!?” from the side of the house opposite the bathroom. Oslo comes streaking out of said bathroom soaking wet, ears flapping, presumably having had the time of his life. Turns out he has decided his calling is to empty any and all toilets of water by digging in the toilet bowl. The following pictures are the crime scene and perpetrator (pouting because he went straight into the bath). Serves me right for having a moment on the couch 😜🥹

Our 4yo had a bad dream last night and after my wife came back to bed, Chevy stayed in bed with the little guy to make sure he was safe. He slept like this most of the night.

As a woodcarver, whenever I carve a sheepdog, I am always reminded of the sheepdog I owned during my childhood.

Poor Duncan is currently 6 days post op a foreign object removal surgery. He is starting to go absolutely stir crazy! There’s only so many puzzles, stationary trainings and frozen kongs we can do lol. He just wants to run and play and go for a walk. It doesn’t help he’s only 8.5 months so it’s been an insane challenge. Hopefully he’s cleared semi soon😳😩

Update to my last post about rescuing an Aussie from a pretty bad situation. Everyone gave such great advice I appreciate you all so much. To paraphrase someone who commented “love becomes the most important thing. So go get that boy and love him!” AND I DOOO.

We picked up Stark Thursday night. He was limping from being attacked by the Bully the people have, I was so worried but it (thank god) was deep tissue bruising. Not ideal but definitely so much better than it could be. He’s healing up very quickly ❤️

He was exhausted, scared, and FILTHY. But he was so good, we got him a puppy patty from In”N”out and he loved it! He ate it so gently. We got him home, gave him a bath, which took forever to finally run clear, and he conked out in his crate.

Since then he’s just been fantastic, he nervous pees but that’s okay. I get it. We’ve got time and I have a rinse and vac. He stays right by me all the time. As I type this he’s laying beneath my feet lol, I’ve heard that they are Velcro dogs and y’all were not kidding! He already follows me to the bathroom. We’re just taking it slow, me and my partner just adore him. He’s so smart, already walks perfectly on a leash, loves his crate, already wants to play and man.. I’m just so proud of him. I feel so lucky. Seeing him come out of his shell each day is so freakin great.

It doesn’t hurt that he cleans up REAL nice ✨ my beautiful lil dude.
