be the president of the United States. Well, I think
the power that Brittany Hockley has. And now that she's
changed her hair, if you've missed it, Brittany is now
a redhead.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Yeah, you kind of look like Ariel from The Little Mermaid.
I will take that.
Speaker 5 (00:41):

I look like.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
That's not a bad one, I said Fiona from Shrek
when she was quickly free ogre.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah. Well, the reason I say that is because we
got a message.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
We'll let their poster girl speak.
Speaker 7 (01:38):
Sorry, Brittany, how do you feel now that you're a
red head?
Speaker 5 (01:41):
I if I can help kids not be bullied at
school anymore, which is I've been advocating for that for
a long time.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I just didn't think I would help them by dyeing
my hair red.
Speaker 5 (01:49):
But if you're bullying someone for the color of their hair, grow.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Up, that's what I want to say. Yeah, he's spoken
like a true inspiration.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
And listen, if you're here to pick up as a
safe space for everyone kids, this is your show.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
And yes I am running for prime minister.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
I'm just trying to can't wait for your elecgend vice
Prime Minister, your dog delat all?
Speaker 7 (02:07):
Right, Well, look coming up, parta's gonna tell you guys, how.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I ended up with fifteen police officers at my house.
What fifteen fifteen and a police rescue van.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
I can't wait to hear that one that's going down
next here on the pickup.
Speaker 7 (02:22):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
I had possibly the wildest Friday night and I didn't
even have to leave my house for it, but it
ended up with my entire street being filled with police officers.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
I don't know why, but when you said you had
a wild night without I was thinking that.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
I was like, oh, gosh, she's had another silent disco
at home.
Speaker 7 (02:40):
That's what you thought.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Not like I got down and freaky with my husband
or anything, just a silent disco. Yes, actually really grim.
It is a grim story, but I'm telling you anyway.
So I live next door to a very actually have
two elderly neighbors on both sides. Both of them are
either in their late eighties or in their early nineties right,
one of them.
Speaker 7 (03:01):
Like our house.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
We live in a duplex, so we've got like a
joining wall between our home and my neighbor's home.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Now.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I know that she's been kind of sick over the
last little bit, and the last time I ran into her,
she said that she had been told that she needed
to move into assisted living, but she refused to, and
we just try and keep an eye on her, you know,
like we can often hear her TV through the wall,
so we'll often know that she's okay, but we don't
always see her. So coming home Friday from work, it
(03:28):
was about five o'clock in the afternoon, and I noticed
that her groceries were on her front doorstep, and I
mentioned to my husband. I was like, oh, Matt, the
grocery's at the front. He's like, yeah, they've been there
since ten am this morning. So I thought, okay, I'll
go on knock and I'll let her know that they're there.
So I knock an knock, knock, no answer. I was like, God,
it's weird, baby, she's out. So anyway, nine point thirty
at night comes around and I go outside and the
groceries are still there. They've been out there since ten
(03:50):
am this morning now, and so now I'm starting to
get really worried.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
And they're worry me, like that's that's telltale sign.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
So I tried banging on all the windows. She didn't answer,
and then I've never been in this situation before. I've
never had to call a welfare check. I've never ever
had to do it, so I didn't know what the
right processes was.
Speaker 7 (04:07):
For a welfare check.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
So I called Triple zero and I was like, I'm
so sorry if this is the wrong thing, but I'm
really worried about my neighbor. You know, can someone come
out here and check that she's okay? And they were like, yep,
thank you. You know you've come at the right like
you've called the right place, You've done the right thing. Anyway,
so police officer comes, he's like, don't worry, thanks so
much for letting us know.
Speaker 7 (04:28):
We'll deal with it. I go out the front.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Half an hour later, there is five police cars, like
our entire street is filled with police cars. There's a
police rescue van, like one of the massive police rescue vans,
and they're trying to get into the house.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
Like they haven't been able to get access.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
So firstly they tried picking the lock, and they're there
for half an hour picking the lock. Then they came
back to us and they were like, look, Laura, we're
just gonna let you know, we're actually gonna have to
break the door down because we are also very concerned
that she's inside.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
You think if she was inside this, ruckers would have
gotten her to come out of their house.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Unless she's stuck in the toilet or something.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
That's my second.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
No.
Speaker 7 (05:02):
I thought she's had a fall, like she's in her nineties.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
She had a fall.
Speaker 7 (05:04):
Of course, that's why you've called welfatch.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
So anyway, so they're there and they get out, like
the five police officers at the back door of her
house and they're going to break the door down. So
they start kicking the door in to break the door in,
and then out of nowhere.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
You hear what's going on.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
And my neighbor was inside, but she was asleep, and
it turns out she's deaf. I had no idea that
she is deaf, and she had been in there the
entire time.
Speaker 5 (05:38):
Oh so you literally just woke her up out of
her deep rem sleep. That was it she And now, okay,
the part that makes this so much worse is that
I saw her on Saturday.
Speaker 7 (05:48):
And I was like, hi, Iris, how are you?
Speaker 3 (05:51):
And she looked me dead in the eye, turned around
and walked inside. She hates me.
Speaker 7 (05:56):
It's because she broke her door down. It's because she.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Was having a nap, and I thought she was dead. Yeah,
you did the right thing, but you also need to
pay for a new dole.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Hey, next on the show, imagine winning big in lotto, right,
You're like, you win the jackpot, You're millions of dollars
richer from a scratchy.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Life's good.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
And then your partner turns to you and says, amazing,
splitting down the middle. What conversation do you have there?
Is it an instant yes or is it a no?
I'm keeping this money. I won it myself, fair and square.
It's an interesting debate the country's having.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
We're gonna have it.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Next on the pick up, picture this. You just win
yourself big cash on a scratchy on the lotto.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
You win big.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
You got to celebrate with your partner and they say
to you, hey, we're splitting this right Like, that's a
tricky conversation. I think a conversation that I think people
think about when they go and buy that lotto ticket.
Do you get to keep all the money or do
you share it with your partner?
Speaker 7 (06:45):
Well, it depends on how long you've been with your partner.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, one hundred percent. Have you been with them a
hot second?
Speaker 7 (06:49):
Are you married? Live with them? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Have a listened to this. So this is a situation
that's currently unfolding on Facebook. It's going super viral at
the moment. A young mum has won the lotto. She
won I don't know exactly how much, but she says
it was half her yearly salary, so he can assume,
you know, maybe thirty forty thousand dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Yeah, I mean they are still a lot of money,
but it's it's not like twelve million dollar win, is it.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
No one's quitting their day job.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
So listen, we know for a fact they were together
for four years. So they've been together four years. She
says she won the lot of ticket that she bought
on a whim. By the way, she just went walked in,
grabbed a lot of ticket and won the money. She
turned to the boyfriend and she said, you know, I'm
going to put the money towards my kids, are there college,
maybe do some upgrades to the house.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
He turns to her and says, what about my half?
What about my heart? This is going super viral.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
She's come out and said, look, if I'd won six million,
I'd have no problem giving him half because it would
be so easy to live off three million but a
quarter of one year's salary won't help.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Me much, is what she said if she splits it
with him.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
So the internet's now saying, no, here's your partner, split
it with him.
Speaker 5 (07:47):
I reading some of the comments now, I'm actually shuok.
Someone's like, is half the plot worth more than your relationship?
If it is, then you shouldn't be in the relationship.
I call him BS on this. I think if she's one,
if we're going like thirty to forty thousand dollars, if
she has won that and she wants to put that
towards her kids, they don't live together, they're not married,
(08:07):
she bought the ticket, I'm sorry. She can do with
the what she wants.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Absolutely, I think it's very I mean it's very dependent though, Bri.
I also think if you're living together, then you're de
facto if you were to separate, he probably could get
some of it anyway. Like, I think that there's many
factors that kind of change it. But if you're not
living together, it's just your boyfriend. You've been together for
four years, and you have kids yourself that you have
to take care of and you're responsible for.
Speaker 7 (08:30):
I think it's kind of rich of him to ask
for you too.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Also think of it this way.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Imagine if she had got that thirty thousand dollars from
anything other than a lot I win. I mean a
work bonus. No one's getting thirty k work bonuses, but
a work bonus or a big tax return.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Right. You don't split that money with your partner, do you? Yeah? No,
because it's a it's money out of noble that we
think split it.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
At the end of the day, she's a young mum
with kids, Like that is her money to do with
what she will and if.
Speaker 7 (08:55):
She wants to put it.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
Also, if she wants to put it towards the house,
chances are in a way that's going towards him anyway, right,
like if you're going to end up sharing a house
and getting married and whatever else. But like these people
that are making her feel bad, telling hers she's selfish, etcetera, etcetera.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
I think reconcity your life choices.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
I think a lot of wins, though, are so divisive
in families and amongst people. Though, like in my own
family my grandparents, there was a big division between my
dad's family and my mum's family because of a lot
of win a winning lottery.
Speaker 7 (09:24):
Ticket happened to you? Yeah, yeah, and it was.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
Look, it did not go down well for the burn
Philippy household.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Back in the day, did your mom have Facebook?
Speaker 3 (09:32):
She was a young single mom. But no, this this
happened many many years ago. Look, I mean both sides
have passed away now, so I can probably tell the story,
but I think I might save that for another day
this week.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Next though, we're discussing the fourth member of the picket.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Last week.
Speaker 7 (09:48):
Delilah gets more airtime than anyone on this show. She's
not even here.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
The love of my life but simultaneously the bane of
my existence.
Speaker 7 (09:55):
She's been in his toxic relationships.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
We've been trying to get help for Brits Dog Delilah
because she it's been let go by two of her
dog walkers recently. And I think I think we've found
the anse. Laura and I have done some investigating and
we have someone the last chance at help for Britz
Dog Delilah.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
It's not the last change. You make it sound like
I'm sending her to a farm.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
Missus Delilah's final day for this guest. We will chat
to her next on the pickup. If you're just tuning
in now and you've missed the updates on Brice dog. Delilah,
her beautiful Australian shepherd that has the mind of a
thirty three year old woman.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
That dog is i'd say like a six one the
mind of a thirty three year old, very specific, just.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
Such a developed, intelligent dog. You look at that dog
and you go, that dog has superannuation. That dog can
pay taxes.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
Yeah, but I think your attitude is more like she's
quite mature in that sense. Her attitude is more of
a like sixteen year old that might not be getting
her way.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Here's the problem.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
We've exhausted all averages to get help for Delilah, so
we found Australia's version. Welcome to the show from Austin's
Dog Training Education Vicky Austin. Vicki has worked as an
animal wrangler for media, television, commercials, show dogs.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
She's worked with narcotic scent detection dogs. She's trained dogs
in explosive scent detection.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
She's also worked with famous dogs on a Place to
Call Home Fighting season Harry's practice Better Homes and Gardens.
If there's someone that confects Delilah in this country.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
It is Vicky Austin. Welcome to the pickup. Please help us.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
I don't think Delilah's on the same level of explosive detection.
Speaker 7 (11:23):
She's a narcotics dog.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
She's okay, I mean doesn't.
Speaker 8 (11:27):
Have the opportunity.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
Okay, Well, I'll tell you Delilah's problem quickly, like her
main problem.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
So she's an Australian Shepherd.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
She's three years old, the most beautiful, sweetest, affectionate.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Dog you've ever seen.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Everyone loves her.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
But when she's with other dogs, she has claimed her
dog walker as hers. So whenever another dog comes even
remotely closed, she's quite aggressive and it's a protection loyalty thing.
But I cannot since she's a puppy, and get her
out of that protection.
Speaker 8 (11:54):
Yeah. What it is is that she is a bit
of a skaty cat and her human, whether it's you
or the dog walker, is her security. And if other
dogs are interfering with that, then it's a risk, you know,
to her safety. You know, it could even be very
well a risk to her life. In other words, she's
not a confident dog. She's scared and she needs that
(12:14):
human to protect her. And she's scared that another dog's
going to take her human away from her.
Speaker 7 (12:20):
I know, are we are back? Sorry I called her
a bully.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
So VICKI, what do you suggest? What can do? What
can she implement?
Speaker 8 (12:26):
We need to give her confidence. So the very worst
thing you could do is any form of punishment or
scolding when she does it, because that's going to make
her feel like you're rejecting me. And now I really
have got a problem because you know, I've got no
one to protect me. So what we would need to
do instead is make good things happen for Delilah when
another dog is around. So she might if she's greedy
and she likes food treats, if there's another dog approaching,
(12:48):
or you're patting another dog or talking to another dog,
Delightah is getting a you know, a handful of food treats,
or she's having a ball thrown for her, if she's
that sort of girl. Whatever it is that she likes
in life, even be that, she gets heaps of attention
when another dog's coming. So you might start off with
saying hello, Polly to the other dog and then oh, Donna,
you're so wonderful, you know, because you're going to get
(13:09):
all this attention when another dog is around, rather than
losing the attention whenever another dog approaches for its face.
Speaker 7 (13:15):
Right now, I was like, I screwed up.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Well, No, what I'm actually thinking is she does the
same thing with balls and food. So it's like, if
you have a ball or of food, she's the same
thing that aggress Yeah, aggression.
Speaker 8 (13:26):
The term is resource guarding. So anything she values, she's
just simply trying to protect and say, don't take it.
This is mine and it's valuable to me and I
don't want to share it. So it's the same as
food guarding, you know. I mean most people are a
lot more accepting of dogs guarding food in their possession.
I think we sort of get that, don't we. They
don't want their food taken from them. But for some dogs,
you know, depending on their nature, it can be their toys,
(13:49):
it can be their bed, it can be individual people,
or it can be the person that's there at the time.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Wow, God, thank you Vicky for the help. We do
appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Hey, if you missed that the show today, guys, you
can podcast it on the iHeartRadio app. Laura had how
many police officers at her house on the weekend four hundred.
Speaker 7 (14:07):
There was fifteen and a police rescue car.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
But if you want to catch up and hear why,
you can listen to it on the Pickup, which is
the podcast Goodbye, Say Guys,
Laura.
Speaker 2 (00:13):

Hi girls, Hello, Hello, I am ty Laura.
Speaker 4 (00:23):
I'd forget Amya Harris. We have a new front runner.
I think to be a politician in the future, to
be the president of the United States. Well, I think
the power that Brittany Hockley has. And now that she's
changed her hair, if you've missed it, Brittany is now
a redhead.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Yeah, you kind of look like Ariel from The Little Mermaid.
I will take that.
Speaker 5 (00:41):
I have gotten a lot of different comments about who
I look like.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
That's not a bad one, I said Fiona from Shrek
when she was quickly free ogre.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah. Well, the reason I say that is because we
got a message.

that her groceries were on her front doorstep, and I
mentioned to my husband. I was like, oh, Matt, the
grocery's at the front. He's like, yeah, they've been there
since ten am this morning. So I thought, okay, I'll
go on knock and I'll let her know that they're there.
So I knock an knock, knock, no answer. I was like, God,
it's weird, baby, she's out. So anyway, nine point thirty
at night comes around and I go outside and the
groceries are still there. They've been out there since ten
(03:50):
am this morning now, and so now I'm starting to
get really worried.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
And they're worry me, like that's that's telltale sign.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
So I tried banging on all the windows. She didn't answer,
and then I've never been in this situation before. I've
never had to call a welfare check. I've never ever
had to do it, so I didn't know what the
right processes was.
Speaker 7 (04:07):
For a welfare check.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
So I called Triple zero and I was like, I'm
so sorry if this is the wrong thing, but I'm
really worried about my neighbor. You know, can someone come
out here and check that she's okay? And they were like, yep,
thank you. You know you've come at the right like
you've called the right place, You've done the right thing. Anyway,
so police officer comes, he's like, don't worry, thanks so
much for letting us know.
Speaker 7 (04:28):
We'll deal with it. I go out the front.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Half an hour later, there is five police cars, like
our entire street is filled with police cars. There's a
police rescue van, like one of the massive police rescue vans,
and they're trying to get into the house.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
Like they haven't been able to get access.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
So firstly they tried picking the lock, and they're there
for half an hour picking the lock. Then they came
back to us and they were like, look, Laura, we're
just gonna let you know, we're actually gonna have to
break the door down because we are also very concerned
that she's inside.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
You think if she was inside this, ruckers would have
gotten her to come out of their house.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Unless she's stuck in the toilet or something.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
That's my second.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
No.
Speaker 7 (05:02):
I thought she's had a fall, like she's in her nineties.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
She had a fall.
Speaker 7 (05:04):
Of course, that's why you've called welfatch.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
So anyway, so they're there and they get out, like
the five police officers at the back door of her
house and they're going to break the door down. So
they start kicking the door in to break the door in,
and then out of nowhere.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
You hear what's going on.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
And my neighbor was inside, but she was asleep, and
it turns out she's deaf. I had no idea that
she is deaf, and she had been in there the
entire time.
Speaker 5 (05:38):
Oh so you literally just woke her up out of
her deep rem sleep. That was it she And now, okay,
the part that makes this so much worse is that
I saw her on Saturday.
Speaker 7 (05:48):
And I was like, hi, Iris, how are you?
Speaker 3 (05:51):
And she looked me dead in the eye, turned around
and walked inside. She hates me.
Speaker 7 (05:56):
It's because she broke her door down. It's because she.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Was having a nap, and I thought she was dead. Yeah,
you did the right thing, but you also need to
pay for a new dole.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Hey, next on the show, imagine winning big in lotto, right,
You're like, you win the jackpot, You're millions of dollars
richer from a scratchy.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Life's good.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
And then your partner turns to you and says, amazing,
splitting down the middle. What conversation do you have there?
Is it an instant yes or is it a no?
I'm keeping this money. I won it myself, fair and square.
It's an interesting debate the country's having.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
We're gonna have it.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Next on the pick up, picture this. You just win
yourself big cash on a scratchy on the lotto.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
You win big.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
You got to celebrate with your partner and they say
to you, hey, we're splitting this right Like, that's a
tricky conversation. I think a conversation that I think people
think about when they go and buy that lotto ticket.
Do you get to keep all the money or do
you share it with your partner?
Speaker 7 (06:45):
Well, it depends on how long you've been with your partner.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, one hundred percent. Have you been with them a
hot second?
Speaker 7 (06:49):
Are you married? Live with them? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Have a listened to this. So this is a situation
that's currently unfolding on Facebook. It's going super viral at
the moment. A young mum has won the lotto. She
won I don't know exactly how much, but she says
it was half her yearly salary, so he can assume,
you know, maybe thirty forty thousand dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Yeah, I mean they are still a lot of money,
but it's it's not like twelve million dollar win, is it.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
No one's quitting their day job.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
So listen, we know for a fact they were together
for four years. So they've been together four years. She
says she won the lot of ticket that she bought
on a whim. By the way, she just went walked in,
grabbed a lot of ticket and won the money. She
turned to the boyfriend and she said, you know, I'm
going to put the money towards my kids, are there college,
maybe do some upgrades to the house.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
He turns to her and says, what about my half?
What about my heart? This is going super viral.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
She's come out and said, look, if I'd won six million,
I'd have no problem giving him half because it would
be so easy to live off three million but a
quarter of one year's salary won't help.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Me much, is what she said if she splits it
with him.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
So the internet's now saying, no, here's your partner, split
it with him.
Speaker 5 (07:47):
I reading some of the comments now, I'm actually shuok.
Someone's like, is half the plot worth more than your relationship?
If it is, then you shouldn't be in the relationship.
I call him BS on this. I think if she's one,
if we're going like thirty to forty thousand dollars, if
she has won that and she wants to put that
towards her kids, they don't live together, they're not married,
(08:07):
she bought the ticket, I'm sorry. She can do with
the what she wants.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Absolutely, I think it's very I mean it's very dependent though, Bri.
I also think if you're living together, then you're de
facto if you were to separate, he probably could get
some of it anyway. Like, I think that there's many
factors that kind of change it. But if you're not
living together, it's just your boyfriend. You've been together for
four years, and you have kids yourself that you have
to take care of and you're responsible for.
Speaker 7 (08:30):
I think it's kind of rich of him to ask
for you too.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Also think of it this way.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Imagine if she had got that thirty thousand dollars from
anything other than a lot I win. I mean a
work bonus. No one's getting thirty k work bonuses, but
a work bonus or a big tax return.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Right. You don't split that money with your partner, do you? Yeah? No,
because it's a it's money out of noble that we
think split it.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
At the end of the day, she's a young mum
with kids, Like that is her money to do with
what she will and if.
Speaker 7 (08:55):
She wants to put it.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
Also, if she wants to put it towards the house,
chances are in a way that's going towards him anyway, right,
like if you're going to end up sharing a house
and getting married and whatever else. But like these people
that are making her feel bad, telling hers she's selfish, etcetera, etcetera.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
I think reconcity your life choices.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
I think a lot of wins, though, are so divisive
in families and amongst people. Though, like in my own
family my grandparents, there was a big division between my
dad's family and my mum's family because of a lot
of win a winning lottery.
Speaker 7 (09:24):
Ticket happened to you? Yeah, yeah, and it was.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
Look, it did not go down well for the burn
Philippy household.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Back in the day, did your mom have Facebook?
Speaker 3 (09:32):
She was a young single mom. But no, this this
happened many many years ago. Look, I mean both sides
have passed away now, so I can probably tell the story,
but I think I might save that for another day
this week.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Next though, we're discussing the fourth member of the picket.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Last week.
Speaker 7 (09:48):
Delilah gets more airtime than anyone on this show. She's
not even here.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
The love of my life but simultaneously the bane of
my existence.
Speaker 7 (09:55):
She's been in his toxic relationships.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
We've been trying to get help for Brits Dog Delilah
because she it's been let go by two of her
dog walkers recently. And I think I think we've found
the anse. Laura and I have done some investigating and
we have someone the last chance at help for Britz
Dog Delilah.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
It's not the last change. You make it sound like
I'm sending her to a farm.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
Missus Delilah's final day for this guest. We will chat
to her next on the pickup. If you're just tuning
in now and you've missed the updates on Brice dog. Delilah,
her beautiful Australian shepherd that has the mind of a
thirty three year old woman.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
That dog is i'd say like a six one the
mind of a thirty three year old, very specific, just.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
Such a developed, intelligent dog. You look at that dog
and you go, that dog has superannuation. That dog can
pay taxes.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
Yeah, but I think your attitude is more like she's
quite mature in that sense. Her attitude is more of
a like sixteen year old that might not be getting
her way.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Here's the problem.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
We've exhausted all averages to get help for Delilah, so
we found Australia's version. Welcome to the show from Austin's
Dog Training Education Vicky Austin. Vicki has worked as an
animal wrangler for media, television, commercials, show dogs.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
She's worked with narcotic scent detection dogs. She's trained dogs
in explosive scent detection.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
She's also worked with famous dogs on a Place to
Call Home Fighting season Harry's practice Better Homes and Gardens.
If there's someone that confects Delilah in this country.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
It is Vicky Austin. Welcome to the pickup. Please help us.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
I don't think Delilah's on the same level of explosive detection.
Speaker 7 (11:23):
She's a narcotics dog.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
She's okay, I mean doesn't.
Speaker 8 (11:27):
Have the opportunity.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
Okay, Well, I'll tell you Delilah's problem quickly, like her
main problem.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
So she's an Australian Shepherd.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
She's three years old, the most beautiful, sweetest, affectionate.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Dog you've ever seen.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Everyone loves her.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
But when she's with other dogs, she has claimed her
dog walker as hers. So whenever another dog comes even
remotely closed, she's quite aggressive and it's a protection loyalty thing.
But I cannot since she's a puppy, and get her
out of that protection.
Speaker 8 (11:54):
Yeah. What it is is that she is a bit
of a skaty cat and her human, whether it's you
or the dog walker, is her security. And if other
dogs are interfering with that, then it's a risk, you know,
to her safety. You know, it could even be very
well a risk to her life. In other words, she's
not a confident dog. She's scared and she needs that
(12:14):
human to protect her. And she's scared that another dog's
going to take her human away from her.
Speaker 7 (12:20):
I know, are we are back? Sorry I called her
a bully.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
So VICKI, what do you suggest? What can do? What
can she implement?
Speaker 8 (12:26):
We need to give her confidence. So the very worst
thing you could do is any form of punishment or
scolding when she does it, because that's going to make
her feel like you're rejecting me. And now I really
have got a problem because you know, I've got no
one to protect me. So what we would need to
do instead is make good things happen for Delilah when
another dog is around. So she might if she's greedy
and she likes food treats, if there's another dog approaching,
(12:48):
or you're patting another dog or talking to another dog,
Delightah is getting a you know, a handful of food treats,
or she's having a ball thrown for her, if she's
that sort of girl. Whatever it is that she likes
in life, even be that, she gets heaps of attention
when another dog's coming. So you might start off with
saying hello, Polly to the other dog and then oh, Donna,
you're so wonderful, you know, because you're going to get
(13:09):
all this attention when another dog is around, rather than
losing the attention whenever another dog approaches for its face.
Speaker 7 (13:15):
Right now, I was like, I screwed up.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Well, No, what I'm actually thinking is she does the
same thing with balls and food. So it's like, if
you have a ball or of food, she's the same
thing that aggress Yeah, aggression.
Speaker 8 (13:26):
The term is resource guarding. So anything she values, she's
just simply trying to protect and say, don't take it.
This is mine and it's valuable to me and I
don't want to share it. So it's the same as
food guarding, you know. I mean most people are a
lot more accepting of dogs guarding food in their possession.
I think we sort of get that, don't we. They
don't want their food taken from them. But for some dogs,
you know, depending on their nature, it can be their toys,
(13:49):
it can be their bed, it can be individual people,
or it can be the person that's there at the time.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Wow, God, thank you Vicky for the help. We do
appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
