All About Aussie
- Aussie
- I am the Australian born puppy of Matt and Nina. Matt named me Aussie, but my birth certificate name is Wildenfox Earl Jackaroo. Wildenfox Earl is for my parents and Matt gave me Jackaroo, which is the Australian equivalent of cowboy. I am an AKC certified Jack Russell Terrier. I can sit, stay, give manners, give high and low five. I only speak on command and when MamaMuffin yelps "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie"! I recently learned how to roll over, that was fun. Nina taught me how to fetch, which took quite a while, but I eventually got it. My favorite toy is my green ball that Matt and Nina put hot dogs in and I throw the ball to release the hot dogs. It keeps me entertained for at least an hour. I also enjoying finding MamaMuffin and Master. I stay in the kitchen, they hide and then bark, indicating it's time for me to "seek" them out: Hide and Seek! We have a lake in the backyard and I love wading in it, but I'm not confident enough to go swimming. My master bought me a life jacket to help me swim or float along easier. Enjoy the pictures my MamaMuffin posts. She can get annoying with the camera...everyday she takes a picture, or so it seems.
and my brother Dillon Murphy
My brother came to us through Dennis's wonderful mom. He is also a Jack Russell Terrier and the vet gave him a birthday of May 1st. He's so much fun to play with and I'm able to teach him tricks, along with my MamaMuffin. MamaMuffin and I will write for him because too young to blog, but we'll convey his thoughts as best we can.

Swimming, walking, tangled up!
Today was the first full day with Jayla here. MamaMuffin took us for a short walk today- together. I don't think she'll be doing that again, at least not both of us. She took us down the road to where I like to jump into the water and Jayla jumped right in too. There's a little drop off in the beginning that MamaMuffin can see from land, and that's exactly where Jayla stepped off to and so Jayla took a quick swim, but she came back quickly. MamaMuffin looked a bit scared, but she kept Jayla on the leash, so that was her safety "net". We only hung out for a little bit because Jayla and I kept trying to wonder off, well I was and Jayla was trying to follow. I thought MamaMuffin put Jayla's harness on correctly, but on the way home it looked like her arm came through? Well, then Mama put us in the backyard and opened the gate. Jayla jumped in the water again, but this time MamaMuffin was really scared and called us in immediately. I think she was scared Jayla might run down the back of the houses and get lost, like I did last week. I don't think Jayla's mama would like that at all. I can't wait for Jayla's mom to visit sometime when she can hang out for a while, so Jayla can really go swimming with me. Well, if she swims, I'll probably swim. I swam before Matt left. Master and MamaMuffin took me to Mt. Trashmore and some guy had his puppy out in the water and I swam to it, I think if Jayla was out in the lake, I'd swim to her. Today was super hot outside, so we stayed inside until the evening when Mama tried to take us for a walk. Now we're going to rest, we have to get up super early!
