It's Nyx

It's Nyx Hi, I'm Nyx the Border Collie, posh name Dreamwork Notorious. I live at Dreamwork HQ with long-suffering Management, and my family, the Dreamworks.

This page is my life and times with them.

I have been so busy this weekend.

I am training Management in scentwork, like my Auntie Bean. This is where you have to find the illegal substances, like cloves or smelly socks, so that Management can swap them for sausages. I am very good at it, and Management will soon be up to speed.

Then in the afternoons, we helped out at Chiltern Open Air Museum in the sheepdog display.

The sheep knew they had an audience, and set out to challenge the ancient agreement between our two species, because why wouldn't they? Slippery little suckers. They couldn't get away from me because they were in a round pen, but the ring leader kept challenging me to a head butt match. The joke is on her, as she would have hit the metal rail.

Lots of people were there to see me, because I am a very good girl. Except the man in an untrustworthy hat, he was Stranger Danger.

The museum is full of very old buildings that nobody lives in, except the sheep and some goats. Management took some photos of me in the farmyard, which was the natural habitat for Border Collies when we aren't sleeping in a comfy bed or watching films.

And guess what we found in the gift shop! I call her Little Nyx. I think she will be a famous musician.

Hello everyone.

We went on an adventure yesterday. Assistant Management came with us. I was very happy to see her.

We had another lesson in sheeping for Management, this time with a new trainer, and some different sheep. These sheep had a ringleader hellbent on world domination, which is an interesting approach to the sheepdog-sheep dynamic.

The trainer Richard was very nice but he made a bit of a rookie error at first, leaving me outside of the pen. Don't worry, I was able to fix it. He also got everyone's management to herd the sheep in groups so they could understand how the sheep react to pressure. I think the sheep were laughing at them.

Management did very well, and in the afternoon we were in the big pen, and I got her to wander aimlessly in front of the sheep backwards and at speed! And... she did not fall over! Clever Management.

Get ready with Management for a day's sheeping.

Sheep leggings, obviously.
Sheep socks. I think the blue ones to match the leggings.
Border Collie t shirt, obviously. It looks like me.
The full fit. Done.

Management was handing out yummies, but she didn't have enough for everyone. I got one though because I am the quickerest. Management said it was Cavolo Nero. I don't know what it is, but it is green. 🥬

Mine is broken, and did not bring its yummy 🤷‍♀️ But everyone is waiting to sn**ch it, so I am doing a keeps.

It was raining at walk time today, so Management took me swimming instead, so I wouldn't get wet.

I am good at swimming.

Management did not swim, so I splashed a lot, so she could share in the fun.

Thank you L.A Dog Pool for looking after me.

I have been very important today.

I have been helping RUN a Management Show! Honestly, I don't think they could have done it without me. I think I was probably in charge really.

I had to do a model on the photo booth because I am internet famous, and I was helping hand out catalogues and tell people things. Is very hard work being important and I am a tired now.

Hello everyone.

This week, it was Management's birthday. On the day itself, we went to a Management Show, but she wasn't to the judges' taste so we were back of the line. That stuffed up my idea for a really great present for her 🥇🏆🤦‍♀️

After the show, we went to stay with Granny for a party, because it was Uncle Standa's Big Birthday too. We camped in the paddock, which was just like an agility show if it had no competitors. Or agility. Or anything, really. I was allowed to sleep with Management instead of being in the crate, so I was able to perfect waking her up by poking her nose. She really appreciated her 4am alarm.

There was family over from Czech. They do not speak Management, but fortunately I am fluent in Endearing, so we got on just fine. Management learnt to say "good morning" in Czech (Dobré ràno) and also gypsophila (gypsofila) which is a cheat really because it is the same word. Still, I was impressed with her, because they do say you can't teach an old Management new tricks.

Granny's language of love is food. She likes to make plenty in case there are unexpected visitors, like a stranded rugby team, or the entire population of Derbyshire. We wouldn't have her any other way, especially Granny Muse, who made off with a chunk of pork crackling. She has quite the turn of speed for a very elderly dog when there is edible contraband involved.

I also got to meet my Auntie Nelly. This is me playing with her. I liked her a lot.

We are now home and settling back in. Having so much fun is very tiring.

We.went to a Management Show in the King's garden today. The King 🤴was not there. Probably because there was a loads of cars parked in his garden. 🤔

The weather was hot, but I was nice and cool in my Cool on Track coat. Management did not have a Cool on Track and she was melting 😫

I saw something I wanted to buy with the money from my penny jar, a Hi K9 bed. The lady said a medium would probably be okay. I would not get off the large. Management said we would have the large one.

I had not taken my penny jar with me. So we used Management's money, which is lucky because now I can save my pennies for something else.

Hello friends.

I am a tired pupper because I have been on a girls trip with Management and my Fiction Mumma.

We had to leave at Sparrow's, which is later than OMG It’s Early but before Sh*t We're Going to be Late.

Sat Nav took us on a nice tour of the Norolk Broads, which looked fun and Management says we can come back for a holiday maybe. But today we were first in the ring so not the best day for a mystery tour.

My Fiction Mumma and I both won red ribbons, and then I won another ribbon and so did she. And we got prize money! So I have lots of money💰 for my jar 🫙

Then we had to wait till the end of the day to do group. I was a good girl in group, although Management did intercept my attempt to jump through the fence while we were waiting for our turn. I didn't get another ribbon.

Management got a Subway Sammich 🥖 for her tea but it had a carnage. It was not my carnage. Auntie Drama pulled the bottom off half and all Management's salad fell on the floor. We were all very good and ceared it up. Management said a naughty. 😱

Hello friends.

We are on an adventure. I am training Management in sheep herding. That is when you harness her natural instincts to wander aimlessly, and reward her for doing it in front of sheep. 🐑

This will show that she is fit for function in the show ring. Or maybe it shows that she is functioning 🤔 - I think we all know she is not fit 🤷‍♀️

I am very proud of Management, she worked very hard and did not fall over. She is going to have a milkshake to reinforce what she has learned. I am going to have a little sleepy 😴 because I have been counting 🐑 😴

Great news! I have qualified Management for the big Crufts show!

I am so happy. We were qualified this year, but couldn't go because of my owie, so now I get to take her! I am so excited.

I got 2 second places today. Management always gives me coins for my penny jar when I win classes. When you come second behind someone who wins lots, that's the same thing, right? So I still get my pennies? Please let me know what you think. 🪙🪙

We also bought Auntie Heav a new tuggy for gilities. She had some really nice (Management said "expensive", I think that means fun) tuggies but they had a carnage and I don't know how that happened. Apparently they aren't good for tugging if they suddenly become short. Who knew? 🤷‍♀️
