Fern, my white Boxer dog, is an accredited service dog under the 1992 DD act. She holds special access rights to be allowed to enter places most dogs cannot. This includes National Parks such as Chiltern Mt Piolet NP where Reedy Creek is located. Unless your dog is an accredited service animal they are not allowed to enter NP.
Check your local regulations, as each state and territory is different, before you travel into or though NP with your dog. Here is the Parks Victoria website for those of you wishing to read up on Victoria's laws 👉 www.parks.vic.gov.au/things-to-do/dog-friendly-parks

    I didn't think Fern would be such a cruel branch manager. Wipping poor Gadzie because he wasn't working as hard as she thought he should work. On the other hand, she looked really cute doing it. Smiling Boxers are the best Boxers.

    Gold paydirt bags can be SUPER easy fun if you don't live in a gold zone. Look for ones that offer a guaranteed minimum amount of gold. Chris, Pauly, Dan Hurd, Klesh all have great value added paydirt with guaranteed ROI. I once bought several bags and got a BONUS BAG with over a gram inside a guaranteed 0.5gram bag! Do fun to reveal some shiny bits for no work!
