a small tricolour sheltie in the woods, watching you with a slightly nefarious expression

here's your daily creature

A very white japanese spitz with a very white snowy background. She has a little speck of snow on her very very pink nose.

Melis interlude!

You'd think! I see it more as her special talent <3 Head empty, but heart full!

blue-eyed blue merle sheltie staring dramatically off-screen

i'm so glad she's stupid. couldn't imagine living with a dog that looks like this if it could also problem solve

very soft and fluffy sheltie puppy

i think its very mean of him to look so pettable but be so bitey

The most important parts of a Sparty are the ears.

one from the outtakes

With three shelties, I think of this whenever I drop a crumb

The same, but looking in a different direction.

Throughout Troja's show career, we've joked that everyone else has a show dog while I have a dirty mop.

So I can't wait to show up ringside with Skaro - a smaller, dirtier mop 🥰

him again! the earl grey himself

Blue merle sheltie stood looking up at a stacked rock cairn. There's now. It's foggy as shit. It's february as fuck.

Boy's first 1000masl!

Two shelties sitting on a mossy, snowy rock in the woods. A third sheltie is also there, more or less.

Finally, all three of my dogs in one decent photo ❤️

at five and a half months old, Skaro is hitting his chimaera era 👌

An adult sheltie and a puppy. They're both blue merles.

The same sheltie puppy viewed from the side, looking particularly pathetic

If he doesn't work out as a sheltie, he'll make great cod bait

an extremely gangly sheltie puppy

Been too busy growing to post! The boy is 16 weeks old now. Still bites but his teeth keep falling out, so the effect varies.

theyre all shelties

Ghost and ghoul season is upon us!

Two very good shelties waiting for their dinner

Spoil your brats Saturday? Half of their normal kibble, topped with woolf ultimate air-dried fish/salmon, a boiled egg from my mum's backyard flock, deer shot by my uncle, blueberries from a hike back in august (and Sparta's glucosamine supplement, which keeps ending up in Troj's bowl by accident.)

Tricolor sheltie in autumn colours

Well into her senior years, Sparta still blows me away at every opportunity. She may not give as many bruises barrelling into me as she used to, but she's always ready to go, always first up the trail, and always the last to quit. 🙌

What a lovely colour combo you have there 😁

Sparta is size of a shoe and brimming with spite ❤️ In july, her little toothpick legs put down over 130km above the tree line! Not bad for a geriatric 5kg shrimp.

Sheltie! Thank you 🐶❤️
