Typing out that episode title didn’t even feel real - you read that right though! My English Bulldog is obsessed with fish and any sort of body of water on anyone’s property so OF COURSE we must restore the old pond on my desert property and turn it into a #diy #puppypond. I haven’t gotten this creatively inspired in so long but need to clean it first to see what we’re dealing with. I have no idea what I am doing and look forward to seeing how I turn this dusted pond into a miniature, functioning critter town.

They way Cali and Blaze are so gently curious about the other animals is so precious 🥺
Rachel, you have such a beautiful soul. ❤
Not only do you care about the wildlife on your property, but the care you’re giving to renovating your property while still honoring the work the previous owners did, I freaking love that!
Thank you so much! 🥹🫶🏼
0:31 Cali kissing those fish is just so darn cute!!!!!
Isn't it insane? She is such a unique animal.
I LOVE that you are obsessed with catering to your dog's obsessions and for being kind to all animals!!! You are my kind of people Rachel!!!
Thank you!
I know your channel is about DIY-ing, BUT I love seeing other elements.. the sunset, the critters, your cute doggo's or you simply enjoying your space ❤
That makes me really happy to know I can incorporate more of it.
I love that Ms. Cali derg 🐶 has a heart shaped mark on her. Fitting for the most adorable queen
Episodes with Lindsay and the dogs are so so fun! ❤❤❤
Rachel, you are amazing!! Not only are you building a pond for your fish-obsessed dog and the critters in your backyard but you are re-using materials from the previous owners that were placed there with love. I've been watching your channel for some time and always had mad respect but I had to place a comment and say.. thank you for being the great person you are.
Your spark has returned and it's great to see. Love the pond and I'm so happy to see how much you value and covet the property's history.
I hope Cali is happy with her fish friends wherever her spirit is🤍🕊
It's wonderful to be able to create beautiful places for our beloved pets
I just love how natural and unique your videos are 🥰 can’t wait to see how the outside spot for your doggies come out 💪🏻
You are so kind - I really appreciate this.
Cutie doggos 🤗 cant wait to see the pond finished! 😁
We love you too Rachel. ❤❤
I love curious pets I just a turtle tank for my cat Sokka and he watches him swim all day long it brings me so much joy to see it.
Excellent video...the only comment, personally, I prefer to have the dining area close to the kitchen but, that is me. Every time I have had people over, it turns out everyone is in the kitchen! With the table near the kitchen to me it makes more serving sense but also keeps the eating activity close to clean up. And then you can relax in a lovely conversation area in front of the fire...FYI love your table!!!
🤍 we love you Cali, rest in bliss sweet girl
Ah I've been waiting for this since Lindsay said she was going to do a mini house for Calli by the pond or something to that effect...am I remembering that right? Anyway, I'm enjoying the outdoor content, it doesn't come as easy to me, so I like to see how others tackle it. Plus, I feel the outside space is the "face" of a property, as it's always the first thing you see. For me, if my outside space is together, I am able to better deal with any of the upheaval I'm undertaking on the inside, but this is the same attitude I use for conducting myself, so there is that bias. Besides, I can't deny that it simply makes me happy to be greeted with an awesome space whenever I come home.
Oh my gosh, the last bit with Lindsay and the dogs 🤣🤣
She loves fish so much and they love her too omgggggggg 🥹🥹 great job on the pond so far
Thank you!
This is the animal parent energy I expect from everyone. 🤣💯 Why not give them the best possible life while they're here, if you can ❤️
Thank you!
Ty for giving Cali girl the best life ever ❤
I totally love you and your girls. And doggos too !
We love you Rach! You are amazing! A true inspiration! ❤
U and Lindsey are the cutest besties
Her heart shape 😍😍😍
So cute.
I have loved miniatures forever. I have two dollhouses and piles of "mini's"
You live in a magical place!😍❤
I have so much love for your work. I love all of it.
Thank you so much!
Calle loves the Koi good girl. I had a koi pond for years I miss them. I built a bridge it was easy, easier than all the digging I did for the 3000 gallons. Desert sunsets are always breathtaking. Calle will be over the moon 🌚 I love the earthy desert vibe. Always love Mz Woodbrain
Cali is such a unicorn 😂 thank you.
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz my son had bulldogs they’re special.
Thanks for bringing us on your journey to life in the desert. :)
I LOVE Scentbird!
Gosh! Me too!

0:18 - Rachel.... oh my gosh how cut is that little guy I could actually cry😭😭😭

Cannot wait for this makeover to move forward ..🤤🤤🤩 one of my favorites, yet 💜
Loved this fun video! Thank you for sharing you life with us. 🥰❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👑
You are so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it xx.
🤍 inspired to finish painting ... 🐶🎏
Love this new segment! Will the fish survive in the desert heat?
Girl, does your property ever end?! Every new video is a new area 😍
Haha just wait! It's only going to get more and more interesting.
I Swear You Are The Best. Love you too ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ♾️
Watching your videos gives the encouragement that women can truly do anything. You give me the courage to fix things and build thing on my own without needing my husbands help❤ I love my husband obviously and appreciate his help at all times, but if can figure it out and do it myself, these videos give me the courage. If you ever offered some kind of learning experience where people could come out to your property and learn from you with hands on experience, I’d 100% sign up. Love you and everything you’re doing.
😂😂 your dog wanting to jump in the water ❤
Great episode!! 😅👍🥰
Omg I love little things to is a Gemini thing😆 can’t wait to how it all comes out nice video.
My frenchie would def eat those.
Oh no haha
Cool 😀 will you need to build some protection to keep the fish safe from snakes? Not sure if the snakes there can live in water?
I need to research it a bit more.
I hate to say this, but you’re going to need a aquarium indoors as well for miss cali 😌
Do you safe rain water?
Moss and desert don't go together., lol.
Cali is too much 🥹 🐠
Please add a few shade cloths so the fish don't boil. AND try out on the pond some gold fish or some other fresh water fish. I wouldn't want to see expensive fish go to fish heaven.
not many dogs get their own pond in a lifetime.
💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞🤍
I hope you're not taking on too much.
Wouldn’t you say everything home is hand place hand poured cement? Every contractor does things by hand too. That is the norm. Why do you celebrate that much?
Because these were placed by him and his children as they were building their dream family home. It's my property and that felt very special
Cali has a ❤️ on her shoulder!!
My heart is so full...seeing Cali enjoy herself really does something to me ❤
She's the best.
Love your enthusiasms as you metamorpihize your property, gush over your sweet beasties, and laugh with you bff. Wild Wimmin Rule!
I love you so much. Thank you for the wild women weekend I so desperately needed ❤️🔥
You are my favorite. I love you so much!
OMG, I loved this video. You have the best "broads" in your life. And your place is turning out so nicely. Loved the ending of video especially.
😂😂🤣 This video was so epic !! Critters and playmates. I have been watch you for years, you are such a inspiration. I have saved and saved and bought a dump of a house on a great lot on a river. It's almost ours , going through all the B.S. paper work etc.. it's in another state and my hubby and I will be going in August. I'm so excited and 4 hands will be better than two. It is a seasonal place that can be used year round. I can't wait to put some of the skills I learned from your vlogs . Getting a vlog from you is like a present thank you 😁
🥹❤
Beautiful .. YOU’RE such a Great PUP MOM… Doing all of that for your babies….❤🎉❤💝💝💝It’s going to be 🔥🔥🔥FABULOUS !!!
KAM
Thank you so much!!
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz Please We just get to watch all of your HARD WORK !!! We appreciate YOU !!!
Great job! Love the layout in the end. The pond was sweet also! lol Kidding. Nice work and look forward to seeing it's decor =)
Cali is like Mr. Limpet. Movie with Don Knots from the sixties.
We used to have a basset hound, Magoo, who would drink from our pond and the fish would some see him just like they do your pups.
Only saying because it might come up or may have already but this is going to attract a lot of mosquitoesssss be careful! 😅
MY PRESSIRE WASHER ALWAYS LEAKS AT THE HOSE ATTACHMENT
If you build a dog house outside ,will it be safe from snakes , that look for places to sleep😊
Happy pups
Where is that cute miniature store?
MAYBE HE LIKES TO SWIM NOT FISH😂
You kick ass Metz! ❤
Yay your on
RACHEL!! I noticed you helped design nowhere California. I was so excited to see this as I booked them for my wedding venue next year!! I was going through their tagged photos and was so excited to see what you did for them since I watch your videos all the time!!!
Oh that makes me so happy!
you make me miss my youth and my best friends back in the day. Love your channel, my girl!
Thank you so much!!
Dear Rachel, your doggies are just as great as their mommy!
🥰
Rachel hey booski😘 hows my fur niece and nephew doing? Ive adopted you as my daughter! I love you baby girl. Keep shining. OneLove ❣️
Oh wonderful a miniature lover too. One day I will start my mini log cabin with 3 bdrms, 2 baths, living room saloon area, and kitchen full of goodies including a washer Dryer area. Most minis are already purchased or made.
I have an English Bulldog also. I’m laughing my ass off about the fish. 😂. You’re awesome 🤗
Not sure which way you plan to go with your landscape but a favorite small tree/large shrub is clerodendrum trichotomum a favorite plant. Fast growing once it’s established (12-15” a year) it has a sweet long lasting scent that lasts here in Oregon from the end of August until October. It’s common name is peanut butter tree. Despite what one website said it handles cold really well but they could be talking about a different variety.
omg that is so cute lol, she loves the fishies
She really does.
Norman is a gal I bet she needs extra food for her babies ☺️
An animal-based episode?!! Yes please!! 😍
Yay!
So weird but I've been obsessed with @Ed the pond proffessor and @Greg Wittstock, the pond guy they are so amazing and do such a great job teaching people worldwide about pond/fish life 🎉❤😂
Oh thanks for the recs.
Hahaha love your work! This episode and how random it all was and yet completely put together it was... 🫶 you're a star, and I love your authentic vibe.🤘
Glad you enjoyed it!
Soooo stinkin cute!!!!!!! ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗
