Tomorrow (Saturday) is our very own @Birdy O'Sheedy 's birthday, and I'm posting this to make sure that we can collectively celebrate our incredible Magic In Dogs fairy godmother. Birdy makes the world a better place, and her passion for helping people and their dogs live more magical lives together has brought together this community, which reflects Birdy's own loveliness. She is the heart and the hub of what we have here together, and I for one am thankful for all she is and does to make it such a rare and enjoyable online space. We love you Birdy, you are wondrous! In lieu of having a good photo of a birthday cake, I've put the pic of candles to represent the warm light of your spirit, Birdy. 😘✨🌟⭐️💛⭐️🌟✨😘

I haven’t been the most magical lately after a loss. But once Yue and I got back out to fall hiking. It’s all come rushing back. To be in our favorite place doing our favorite thing. She reminds me to live in the moment. Be excited for the “small” but meaningful things. And to live life like a dog: loving , happy, and adventurous.

I’m very excited to announce our first The Magic in Dogs LIVE, IN-PERSON workshop in Sydney! Ticket Sale is now live in the Classroom! 🥳 Workshop details: 📍 7A Norton St, Leichhardt NSW 2040 at Serious Dog Business (Thanks @Pat Stuart, legend! 🙏) 📅 Saturday, 21 November 2026 ⏰ 10am–4pm We’ll spend the day exploring the human-dog relationship through psychology, science, reflection and practical experiences, with plenty of space for connection, conversation and curiosity. Whether you’re a dog professional, a dog sports enthusiast, or simply someone who shares their life with your best friend, you’ll find something here to enrich the relationship you share with your dog and the life you live together. 💛 A whole day dedicated to exploring the magic dogs bring into our lives: - Discover how our relationships with dogs can support wellbeing, joy and resilience - Learn more about the PAWS framework, the science behind it, and why training our attention matters - Learn practical ways to cultivate presence, appreciation, wonder and connection - Understand more about the fascinating psychology of the human-dog relationship - Leave with practical tools and ideas you can take home and use. I can’t wait and I'd love to see you there. 🤩 Much love, Birdy 💛

Okay Folks, Exciting things are happening! I've published the new 28 day journey in the premium classroom and scheduled a Community Call for Wednesday morning so I can show you what I have changed as it is quite different to the July challenge. I've retired the July classroom section as it was just outdated and the new course is so much more in depth, etc. I'm working today on a video to onboard our new members in the classroom so they get a good, clear start right from the beginning. So I'd love to see you tomorrow if you can make it. Much love, Birdy 💛

I woke up to Pax in front of my bedroom door whining. And he let me know the fire had died overnight and the house had the same temperature as the fridge (I tell you, Australian houses have not heard of insulation 😒). He proved his point by sneezing straight into my face and putting his cold snout in my chest 😝. So our PAWSing this morning was a sneeze and building a fire together, but we got some good cuddles in later. My magical glimmer moments yesterday were: - I could increase my physical strength training a tiny bit more which made me feel very excited despite having to go to bed at 8:30 later as I was exhausted. - The magpies visited me while I was playing with Pax and they all zoomed around together. Was like a Disney movie. - I was a lot in the kung fu school yesterday and love being part of the community there and see people progress and overcome obstacles. - And I had two huge belly laughs Pax’s glimmer def was chewing up my expensive sports bra that I didn’t realise he had found. 😒🤦‍♀️ Never gets boring around here 😂 I’d love to hear your glimmers 🤩
