This video details one of the wildlife adventures our dog Scooter recently went on when I found him down the back excitedly harassing a native Australian animal – not very happy! Thanks for your support!

Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started SSM in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark ๐
Beautiful. Hope it is ok. Also hope it leaves your birds alone.
my cats are bastards like that.. dogs n cats mate.. jeezus christ lol im gettin a wombat and a wallabe next time. ps. dont wory about people who dont like you calling the dog stupid when it was being stupid, i think they are just jelous of your charisma, im sure they arent vegn and have worse things done to animals than just name calling
Just protecting the homestead
Holy shit. That's a small snake there? Wow.
Love your videos. Please, never stop.
I don't understand why you would call the dog dumb. He was merely trying to do what dogs are supposed to do and that is to protect it's owner and it's owner's property. He alerted you to the fact that there was a snake (danger) nearby that could harm you or the animals that you have on your property.
Wow, I love your channel and your country, but I'm so, so glad I live in the Northwest of Washington State and the only thing we have are slugs and rain. LOL So pleased that Scooter stops when you yell. Good dog. Cheers
Good doggy bad snake!! loll jk
Good on Scooter for warning you about the python, lucky it wasnt an Eastern or King brown, we get a lot of those here in Ipswich. Hate those cane toads, theyre a real nuisance. My dogs just love chasing them at night, I have a mini foxy and a Jack Russellxmini foxy, so theyre always hunting something, saved a water dragon in my backyard the other day. Great video Mark
Heย seems to be aย dog that has strongย drive skills.ย Good to trainย a dog in drive.ย Whenย after prey andย full drive kicks in, it is only a natural thing,ย and what they are good in doing. This guy trains in drive and can be helpful. ย Maybe there is something here to help? ย http://blog.k9pro.com.au/can-dog-much-drive/
I have a cat, Kiki, that gives me "gifts" on my doorstep. Cardinals, frogs, chipmunks, etc.
Mr. Scooter is a dog.
he's just protecting your property !! good scooter
Jolly! Everyone's okay, and you get beer!
"God is Great, Beer is good… People are crazy."
your dog was just doing his job, and you yelled him instead of praising. he is a good dog!
Not a stupid dog – just a dog.
Have a blue cattle/black tan kelpie cross somewhat like scooter and she is a big scardy cat when it comes to snakes, but you know when there is one around by the way she barks. I would have done the same thing Mark. ๐
My dog Max who I've had for around 14 years now has always been a great snake alarm. But his last misadventure was a death adder I found dead outside my back door, with Max frothing at the mouth. Emergency midnight trip to the vet and a million dollars later he's miraculously still kicking on. But I haven't seen him go for another snake since. Not saying that's the best deterrent but…..
Awww poor Scooter was protecting the chickens. He thinks he is being a good boy.
You forgot to use the disclaimer that no animals were harmed in the making of this video which is good. It's good that Scooter alerts you when there are threats to your chickens.
So, poor Scooter is a drug addict. Lol ๐
When you were filming the snake from below, did we see a full monty python for a second?
He's a Good Dog … He was trying to chase him away.. Defend your home and property..
Love scooters face lol
Scooter bad doggo
Poor old scooter
"scooter the cowardly dog", if "courage the cowardly dog" was filmed in Australia, it would all make sense, especially with the cane toad tripping.
I asked in another old video, but what breed is scooter?
I….. Hate snake
Sorry to say with a shock collar u can train it out of them. It might seem cruel to the dog but I have had to nurse a dying Labrador from a rattlesnake bite more than once. 2 sessions with a collar and a snake your dog will never mess with a snake again
You should try to grow moss on the gravel if you ever go that route again. Great video
