All About Aussie

My photo
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.

Just nuggets being nuggets

Oh, my muffin nugget decided to hide a toy in the garden (with new soil just put down) and got his snout completely covered in dirt. He came inside breathing all heavy and difficult and his entire snout was brown- the time the picture was taken, within seconds, he shooks some of it off. ***he's being testy at the moment- barking at Dillon for being to close to him, I guess- he can get moody, poor Dillon takes the brunt of the moodiness.***


I came home from class on Tuesday to find no one waiting for me at the gate (???)...where were the boys? I didn't come in super quiet, but they were outside just "hanging" and I was able to sneak a few pictures through the door and screen and shades (which were closed). Finally, Aussie caught me and they both ran inside and dramatically ran around as if they had been found after being abandoned.
