I started teaching Secret Jenga a little while ago, and she's finally getting the hang of it?♥️ She really enjoys games that require precision like this, so we've been having a lot of fun with it!?

Mopping the floor

View this post on Instagram

This week Secret learned how to mop!? Secret adores mopping, she was so excited she bounced into it?❤ I think she likes it even better than vacuuming or sweeping, probably because she loves going in circles..?? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Follow my Pawtners @bluebearaussie @marvelous_marble_

Irish dancing

Happy St Patrick's day everyday!!☘️? As always, one of our favorite holidays, I can't wait to go downtown and find someone playing music to dance to! -Ps. Sorry for the messy room, we're still not completely moved in yet? Anyway, I hope everyone has as much fun as we are having today!♥️

Painting

View this post on Instagram

"The joy of painting, by Dog Ross"? A mountain sunset on the water!?? We've been working on targeted painting recently (teaching her to follow cues from me moving a target stick to create a specific picture), after being inspired by @omarvonmuller 's amazing dog Jumpy!?? It's been a lot harder than I expected, but her accuracy has improved so much from when we started a couple weeks ago! Can't wait to attempt letters/words! #DogRoss #Thejoyofpainting ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Follow my Pawtners @bluebearaussie @marvelous_marble_

Sledding and bringing back her toboggan

View this post on Instagram

So happy to back in Iowa for Christmas!❄ Secrets having a blast, and more obsessed with sledding than ever? This may be her longest run yet!??

Leap of faith

View this post on Instagram

Trust?❤ One of the most important things training can build ?? Secret knows I will never ask her to do something she cannot, and therefore she has learned not only to believe in me, but in herself ?

Guitar playing

Secret learning to jam on the guitar today!?❤ One more instrument down!? I originally tried to teach her with a ukulele instead, but as always Secret wanted the big one??❤

Gymnastic balance

View this post on Instagram

Practicing a new Doga position!?❤ I've always wanted to try this but I wasn't sure she could do it, she really surprised me! This takes so much coordination, we really need to work together in order to balance! It's amazing how deeply we can communicate with our dogs when we teach them positively, you just can't force trust?? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Follow my Pawtners @marvelous_marble_ @bluebearaussie

Decorating the Christmas tree

View this post on Instagram

Decorating our tree!??? We decided it was close enough to Christmas to put one up?? It came out rather lopsided and wonky (she likes to put all her balls in the same spot?), but it's Secret style!?? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Follow my Pawtners @u bluebearaussie @marvelous_marble_

A post shared by Mary & Secret ? (@my_aussie_gal) on Dec 1, 2017 at 9:33pm PST

Oh, and the coolest trick of all? Secret is Mary’s service dog and goes to school with her every day. Is there anything Secret can’t accomplish? We doubt it!

Secret on the job

View this post on Instagram

Sorry we haven't had as much time to post lately! I get a lot of questions as to what Secret will do when I go to college, and well I'm not going to college yet, we've recently started taking running start classes at a local community college?♥️ Yes, Secret attends with me! Since I will probably be asked, I have Autism (a development disability) and Secret was trained specific tasks to help mitigate. That is what makes her a Service dog♥️

This is truly a partnership of a lifetime. Be sure and give Mary and Secret a follow on Instagram to see what they learn next!
