So true! My boys would love it. I almost did have the whole place to myself. Apart from at the start and at the end we only saw 3 other couples so 6 people, that was it. And at the start once we got to the bottom of the zig zag trail everyone else walked back to the top and we saw no one for ages.

Jalba and Rusty would absolutely love running around a place like this.

This place was incredible!

Thank you so much, for the comments and support.

Just quickly checked out some of your short videos, will look at more content soon. Oregon had some absolutely stunning coastline, what a fantastic backyard.

Hahaha love it! We had so much fun in that little buggy. Wish I had more time but I had so much stuff planned for this holiday I had to keep moving.

Yes it was golden hour here in WA and was stunning!

Thanks for joining me on this little adventure

Thanks for the info, the pine trees in the USA were amazing, I would love to create a small US forest ecosystem in my backyard :)

I just watched your reel, what a beautiful girl, thank you for sharing. I just subbed as well, I am very interested in stories about people who care about wild canine and wild canine hybrids. How does your girl stack up against a pure female wolf for size and weight?

@@intrepidworld Thanks mate, I also subbed you because you share interesting content... and yes, I too am a big fan of wild canines. Now you also get a long story.... My girl unfortunately has not yet been tested by embark DNA, because the test is quite expensive, and besides my wolfdog girl I have an elderly gentleman (mix of husky, akita, white shepherd and Korean Pungsan and some of almost 15 years old) to take care of and maintain, and another chronically ill shepherd podenco mix, to which I have a lot of extra expenses every year... so unfortunately the embark test falls by the wayside for now. I did see embark results of wolfdogs that had to be her 2 brothers and 2 sisters (total 4/12 animals from 2 litters) from two litters from the same claimed parent combination (2 very similar in appearance), all of which showed an equal starting mid content score. She was sold from a large trader and breeder in Western Russia to Western Europe with the (highly doubtful) claim that she would be a mid content cross between and Western European working line German shepherd (with negligible low content and far back breeding from the Russian Permian wolfdog/Volkosoby back to Gsd) and an anthropophobia-free Eurasian wolf (, and a nice sales pitch that this wolf had voluntarily bonded with a remote living old man and his Gsd. She came to me via a young couple in England who had originally bought her through the trader in Russia through many (inexperienced) hands totally confused by everything she had gone through in a short time, never to leave. Regarding her shoulder height of 64cm she would fall under the somewhat smaller European/Eurasian wolf females, regarding her weight of 31 kg she would again be quite heavy in relation to her shoulder height... but she also has a much heavier front and wider chest than the wolf. She would be more similar in size and weight to the western European working line Gsd male, her quite similar brother with about the same weight but a shoulder height of 71 cm, would again be much more comform to the proportions of the wolf. And she in physically unprecedentedly strong, I have had to feed, maintain and walk 3 rhodhesian ridgebacks at home 3 times a day in the past 5 days from good acquaintances who were on vacation, and the two females of equal size and weight together do not put as much force on reactivity on the leash, as my girl does. I've been volunteering with dogs at the local animal shelter for 1 or 2 half-days a week (sometimes more often) since 2007, and in all those years I've never encountered a dog of equal size that had so much primal strength in it. But most of all, the extraordinary social and emotional intelligence she has and how unprecedentedly sweet she is to me is also something unlike a normal pet dog. I don't share much on YT but if you are active on fb, you may add me or else send me a chat message so I can add you, and if you don't know them yet, I invite you to interesting wolfdog fb groups, which some dingo owners also participate in.

@@PvanT1983 interesting she looks like the canine in Russel Crow's Gladiator.

Thank you for the support it means the world to me. I never knew how much I'd love creating these videos and I'm so glad that I am still here to make them. Sorry for the late reply.

Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed the video and listening to my story.

Mate it was an amazing journey and as I said in the video I am grateful to you and Cam for reaching out to me and inviting me a long on the adventure.

Thank you so much for the support it is much appreciated.

Thanks a lot Steve. I am always trying to make the videos better.

Thanks Cam I appreciate that and thanks again for reach out to me and sending me the invite 👍 It was great to get out there and push myself a little. Was definitely capable of more which is great to see.

Thank you. It gives life a certain amount of new perspective. So grateful to still be here to connect with people and keep reaching new goals 💪

I'm glad you liked it. I just released day 3 last night day 4 today and day 5 tomorrow, I saw dolphins 😃 also will release a feature length wide screen video here on KZfaq very soon 👍

Just got back from a 5 day hike, I've seen people surfing at another reef about 400m further north of the lagoon.

Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you so much

Yes ours come back as well. They have been off lead a few times accidentally like when Rusty's collar snapped and I dropped the lead. They came back in their own time, after only about 20 min or so. There is just too much risk they will get into trouble by running onto a farm or something like that. So I don't let them off lead. If there was a safer place I would do it.

I'd love to meet an American dingo sometime

Haha mate any colder and it would have been an ice block haha

Thank you for that I will be posting a few more short stories about Dingoes and I long form video updating what it has been like living with them for the last 2 years.
