Indi's World

Indi's a very loved puppy. She has settled extremely well into our family and household. Things aren't all rosy though! She still is working out where to go to the toilet (admittedly we have made that harder by not having a dog door).

She is also known as crocodile because when she wakes up she loves to bite anything and everything. Her favourite thing is ankles and feet especially Katy's who she thinks is her sibling. Katy is working on showing Indi who is the boos.


Indi began puppy classes at the vet. There are 5 other puppies in her class. They love romping around chasing and play fighting. For the first 2 weeks only 1 family member was allowed to attend and then restrictions eased and so each girl came with me for the remaining 2 sessions. I'm not sure they learnt much but the loved seeing the other puppies!



From these classes, we got the idea of creating a snuffle mat. A $5 rubber mat from Bunnings and a $5 fleecy blanket from Ikea. The blanket was torn into strips and then each strip fed through the holes of the mat. The idea is to scattering biscuits into the mat and so the dog spends time sniffing them out. A great distraction while we are at work.
