Hello there!
I'll be posting the occasional video until I get a job :p
I make mostly dog vlogs, with the occasional travel or other type of "whatever's happenin' in my life at this moment" sort of stuff. I also like to play games with friends so you may see some of those sprinkled in there.
Thanks for stoppin' by! :-)

House Visiting Two Very Different German Shorthaired Pointers!
Hey ya'll just a little chat about stuff vlog. This time I'm visiting two very different looking and acting German Shorthaired Pointers.
I didn't touch on it too much but other than study, I have been working on the website, the booking system for the business, and slowly gathering a list of essentual items and "nice to haves" for the future studio :D
Who knew there are so many options out there and they all vary greatly in price! :O
Some of the main equipment are on the way and I am almost ready to do another bulk purchase.. Exciting stuff!
For those who like seeing dogs, well you will be able to see many more of them when things really get rolling!
As always, I hope you're doing well and have a great day! :-)

From Unemployed to Business Owner??
Переглядів 462 місяці тому
Hello, me again :) It's a Friday morning and I'm out walking the dogs. I'm at the very start of my small business owner journey and hope to see it bloom into something great and helpful for all those I service. Normally people make one video of the conclusion to these things as when you're starting out there's so much uncertainty but in my case I would like to share the journey as it happens :)...

At the time of this video we are at the 2 1/2 mark now of being unemployed in the workforce. I hope you enjoyed coming along for another walk with Ben and Ishka. This is their second time being together so for those who know Ishka, I am proud. I'm also very proud of how AWESOME of a dog Ben is. He is just wonderful! "Carol & The End of the World" was the Netflix show I was mentioning (but didn'...

After walking Ben a couple times now, I decided I wanted to introduce my own dog to Ben so I can then potentially start walking the two of them together in the future. I didn't talk too much in this video as my focus was with the dogs interacting for the most part. Just for context, Ishka is not much of a "dog dog" and will prefer playing games with people over other dogs. She does not normally...
Walking Ben the German Shepherd Again (Train Station Visit)
Переглядів 1013 місяці тому
I'm back with Ben and waffle on about mostly dog stuff again. This is my third walk with Ben and the second time I've recorded the experience. He seems to be doing really well with his walking and my grandparents have been walking him a bit more on their own which is great progress for them and Ben. He also had his first experience at the train station, acing that as well :)

I tried my best to remove most of the annoying 'like' filler words. I seem to have picked it up again at some point. It comes and goes. Also, I would like to clarify, please use common sense and don't purposefully put yourself in a potentially dangerous situation with strangers, though I do think it's important to also balance not letting fear stop you from getting outside and exploring the wor...
Walking a GIANT German Shepherd PUPPY (For the First Time)
Переглядів 9723 місяці тому
Meet my grandparents' adopted German Shepherd, Ben. He is big, he is fluffy and he needs some more training to walk better on a lead for the old folk :-) This is my first time taking Ben out for a walk so I had no idea what to expect. All I do know is that he needs to learn to walk a lot nicer so my grandparents can walk with him more comfortably on their own. If there are any German Shephard o...

Busting out some older videos this time and compiling them into one! This was from a nine day family getaway to the Whitsundays, Queensland, Australia in April 2023. These clips were from our stay at Daydream Island where the weather was so warm it was actually nice to walk around in the rain, enjoy lots of swimming, drinking, eating and enjoying one another's company. Though I didn’t record mu...

The dog vlogs are back! After 4-5 years of going MIA. Who knew it took that long to get back into talking to the camera again and making a more personal video. I have been looking through my folders and found some earlier dog vlogs as well as some old vacation videos which I am in the works of putting them together and uploading soon. I wanted to open up about my current situation of being unem...
Visiting Mt Buller and Snowboarding For the Second Time! 🏂❄️

A little 3 night getaway to hit the slopes at Mt Buller this time round (though we decided Mt Hotham is still at #1). This was our second time snowboarding, not too bad for those who know what it's like to start out :p I'd say sorry for any potential cringe, but we were having fun and that's what counts :-) Sunset Reverie Music by: www.bensound.com License code: SJR22O5JXO8BHYRD
New Zealand Road Trip 2024

My partner, friends and I travelled from Auckland through to Queenstown on a two week road trip in New Zealand. This was only some of the footage I captured on the gopro and a little on the DSLR which I didn't end up using all that much! There was so much more we saw and did it would have been great if I captured more through film, but you know, it doesn't always beat experiencing it first hand...

Get him lots of exercise, socialize him with as many people and dogs as you possibly can while he's still a puppy. Shepherds need around 2 hours of mental and physical activity time every day, preferably more. 2 hours of play and 1 hour of training is a good guideline, puzzle toys and new places are also good.
Great video ❤
@@shakimratv Thank you :)
Beautiful puppy! I’d suggest some obedience training exercises with the ball and during the walk so that he can be easier to handle. If he can learn to keep a good “heel” at some points during the walk he’d be awesome!
@darockguitar1 Thankyou! Those are great suggestions I will have to try 😊
Yay! have fun future business owner. ❤️
@pastawormspastaworms9094 Haha you are too cute! Thanks for the support! 🧡🧡🧡
Good luck😊
@@nicolesmith325 Thank you!! 🧡🧡🧡
Omg, congratulations. All the best and hope nothing but success for you!
@sahithibolla7381 Thank you, lovely!! Appreciate your kind words 🧡
love the ending 😂😂
12:22? That's my favourite part 😂😂😂

thank you for sharing 😁

holy moly this vid is doing numbers!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel honoured to have met the celebrity Ben & Mads 😝
@thatssokatey you are featured in the video this coming Friday so stay tuned! 😂😜
😮
So funny
Geez
Im the 54th subscribers, yahoooo! Greeting from england
@romrom9341 Amazing 👏 Thank you and welcome! 🙏
WoooHHH THats so fun! And scary!! I went on a hike at Plenty Gorge, have you been there?
@zapalzo no I haven't been there before! Do you recommend it as a good spot to go? 😁
I have earned a lot passed 3 years. And the best teacher I had was my dog. Just to live in the moment. In three years ago I though I had retired. My Wife and I had saved up enough money to last until I turned 65 and social security would start. Well, that was the plan. Shortly after I left work my Wife had a stroke. Weeks of being hospital and rehab homes. But she passed away. We were married for 42 years and now I was alone. Couple months of just sitting on our bed. Hardy eating or anything I begin to feel weak. I could not walk from one end of the house to the other without resting. I went to a doctor and learned I was in end-stage congestive heart failure. Lots of meds and a pacemaker I'm still here. But of course the money was all spent for doctors and hospitals. Keep moving, keep pushing on toward something. But don't lose hope don't get discoursed. Protect your heart, or keep your spirit up. Discouragement can kill, I found that out. And learn to live in the moment. Like our wonderful dogs do. Best wishes for you and your family. Live in the moment, and never give up.
@davegoodridge8352 Wow, thank you for sharing your story and also kind words. I am starting to see a pattern where most people save for retirement to live, however often don't expect to be hit with so many medical bills along the way. I couldn't imagine what you had to go through when your wife passed, especially after sticking together for so long. Sounds like she was very lucky though to have someone like yourself love her so much. Thank you for your words of encouragement and I hope I can keep reminding myself to be grateful for what I have now and take any challenging situation as a learning lesson 🙏 😊
That's just incredible! Here in Oklahoma in the USA, our water is muddy red and can't see 6 inches. What a beautiful place to be. Thank you for sharing this.
@davegoodridge8352 Crazy how different places have totally different water conditions. Even though the water is blue, there are lots of jellyfish that can cause a nasty sting if you're not careful, that's why we get the fancy suits to wear while swimming:) Oh, and there are also many crocodiles swimming around too! You don't want to bump into one of them while in the water 😬
New sub! You did a great job. Also, your a good Granddaughter
@davegoodridge8352 Thank you! I certianly try to be!
Dang this needs more views you are amazing you earned a new sub ❤
@@Billie_Eilish_Fan_Page Thank you so much!
Please can you do video about position changes and obedience training
@ahmedragheb6343 I'm not a certified dog trainer, I only have experience taking my own dog to obedience classes, but I can certainly include some tips that have worked for me in a future video!
@@LightnMadsjust what you do and things like that already helps. I’m about to get my puppy and where I live there isn’t puppy classes unfortunately so I need to do all by myseld
@MA-xd9zl it can be challenging in the beginning but keep consistent with your puppy's training and the more you put into your dog's training and wellbeing (going out for adventures/walks/playing) the more you get out of them as they age. I have another video coming out this Friday with Ben again if you keep an eye out for that one too :)
@@LightnMads im just afraid I won’t be able to provide enough exercise cause I’ve seen people saying they spend 6 hours with their puppy a day 🫠
save up a few hundred k and live off of interest pay = no need to work if u can save enough money. GO SPREAD THE WORD !!! THE AGE OF UNEMPLOYMENT AND LIBERTY IS HERE
your dog is dreaming of a job -- a small flock of sheep to herd. will she ever have pups of her own? that must be #2 on her list, after herding sheep.
@mth469 There is a sheep herding school not too far from where we live. They teach you how to unleash your dog's free spirit! Only thing is that each session costs a decent amount of money. So currently we have not been attending any classes due to this reason (we were going for a couple sessions otherwise). Ishka has been neutered so unfortunately no pups for her 😢
@@LightnMads Inquire at the school if you could pay a (small) fee to have your dog run around with a two or three lambs. Tell them you don't need her trained to be a full fledged sheep dog. But rather just for her to get the feel of seeing and doing what her life's mission is all about. If not, ask them to suggest something for a small fee. Call and ask, worst they can say is no.
how has ishka pooped so much what the frick, poop vendor!
@@thatssokatey Ishka will often average 3 poops on a decent walk 💩🐶😅
Hope you get the job! 🎉❤
Thank you so much ☺ I appreciate your kind words!
I love it! Staying at the duck inn, my favourite on mountain. Hope you enjoyed your stay
It was nice and cosy at the Duck Inn. We even tried out the restaurant down stairs and the staff were lovely 😄
Haha yes. We had to evacuate one time at about 5 o’clock because the fire alarm went off. It was a big of smoke from the kitchen so we just waited around playing chess by the gas fire until dinner 😂 and we did our fair share of tobogganing to the right of the entrance. One time my friend was scooting himself back in order to get the most out of the slope, he went so far back he starting sliding down backwards into a dip at an entrance of another building 😂
@maxxiemad. 😂 hahaha that's so funny you mentioned. As we were waiting in the entrance for our shuttle back to the car park the fire alarm also went off. Apparently someone burnt some toast in the staff kitchen 😂
I see you're puttin your guy to work 😝 make sure to give him a cut of the profits
@thatssokatey hahaha of course 😋
so wholesome, nice work 🔥
Thanks Seb! I had fun making it! 🤗
Wow looks like you had such a great time :-)
I certainly did! I am also grateful I got to travel with a group of friends too 😇
1:03 is iconic
@@thatssokatey gotta go fast 🏃♀💨
I would like to reiterate (6 months later lol). I think a better word used is "reactive" rather than "agressive" when I mentioned ishka was at one point..
Beautiful lab. I have a Dudley too and everyone thinks she’s a mix lol
hahhaa @2:30 nice
