Blake’s awesome owners bid on my voucher as part of a fundraising auction for Pet’s Haven Animal Shelter, a rescue group here in Melbourne, Australia. Blake’s parents are passionate about animal welfare, and adopted Blake when he was a little pup. Eighteen months on Blake is still very much a puppy, but he knows his commands beautifully. He sat, dropped and heeled like a champion and gave me such a cool variety of poses and expressions.
Blake is a Lab/Kelpie cross – for those of you who don’t know, Kelpie’s are working dogs and end up in shelters all too often because people don’t give them the exercise or mental stimulation they need. Blake ran rings around us at the local park before playing a bit of tug o war in the back garden, until he finally gave in and fell sound asleep on the carpet. Check out his amazing amber eyes – I’ve never seen eyes quite like them!
