I'm Chesnyy, a Gov't qualified service dog in Canada. My job is taking care of my person, a bilateral amputee. I'm the successor to Kuno, disability spokesdog.

🐶First he bit my tail, then he tried to steal my spot on the couch, and then he used my face as a punching bag for his murder mittens. 🐾 He still doesn't realize I could torpedo his little ham sized body off the couch with one quick paw smack. But I don't because I'm a good girl and Santa is watching.🎄 Goodness knows, I'll need him to replace some of my stuff the potato with teeth has annihilated. #HeKnowsIfYouveBeenGood Video description for inclusivity: Chesnyy the Servicerottie lays on the couch with Baby Kenji He bats her face and nibbles on it. She licks him back.

Kenji’s first birthday at the dog show just turned into the best reunion ever. His sister Tegan is here celebrating her first birthday too. They haven’t seen each other since they were 8 weeks old. 40 seconds of two Rotties who still remember exactly who they are to each other. This makes my heart smile. ❤️🎂🐾 #RottieLove #PuppyReunion #FirstBirthday #Littermates

My baby brother, Kenji the Mooseweiler, really adores his moose leg toy. He took it outside then used it to knock on the door to ask to come back in! The moose legs are awesome toys but it's extra special to him because the Bunsen, Beaker, Bernoulli & Brix family gave it to him. They were some of the first humans that came over and met him when he was pork roast sized, and have visited numerous times. We don't have very many human visitors so those visits have been very influential to Kenji. The relationships with human friends a puppy makes early in life get etched into their hearts. In Kenji's heart the Zackowskis are family. 🎥 The Mooseweiler with his moose leg. #MooseParts #DogHearts #KenjiChaos

I am Chesnyy the Servicerottie and I am four now. I have been four since Tuesday. Kenji is still eleven months of unhinged optimism. Today we had meat cake about it. Bunsen, Beaker, Bernoulli & Brix rolled in enroute to Expo like a traveling circus that also happens to be house-trained. Bernoulli, Beaker, and Brix the cat. Beaker walked in, did one polite sniff of the welcome mat, and immediately became management. No barking. No spinning. Just a golden retriever who has seen things and decided this house would do. Rverybody got along. Except Brix. Brix chose violence and a backpack. He stayed in it and growled like we had personally cancelled his dental plan. We did not. We just exist near him. To be fair, he's probably never experienced puppy energy before. It has brought out a growl from me too. I wore the fall necklace Bernoulli gave me last time because I am fancy and also because if you have a gift from a Berner you WEAR the gift from a Berner. Finale: four paper plates. Four chunks of meat cake. Four dogs. One starting gun that was just a human saying “okay.” I am the fastest at pretty much everything. Zoomies. Hallway sprints. Emotional support. Tax season. Apparently I'm now too old to take the medal in food events. Beaker evaporated her slice. I blinked and it was gone. I am still processing. Kenji is still chewing. Bernoulli is still smiling like this was a TED Talk. I came in a dignified third, which is what turning four and having principles does to a girl. 10/10 party. Would hide a cat again. 🎂💨🐾 I also want to thank everyone for the birthday wishes. Some of you also sent cards and even treats. That makes my heart smile. It's very much appreciated. 🐾❤️🐾 #MoreCakePlease

Today my power wheelchair hit 15,000 km. Almost every one of those kilometres had a Rottweiler beside it. Losing my legs meant relearning everything. And it was and still is, hard. Opening a door and getting through it. Getting out of bed at 3 a.m. to pee. Even getting into bed. I am eternally grateful a Rottweiler was there for all of it. Kuno, a huge dog with a massive heart, taught me how to live this life. Without him I am fairly certain I would have stayed in bed, stared at the TV, and hated the world. Instead he got me outside, and we learned how to navigate a community built when people like me were expected to live in institutions. Those kilometres were full of firsts. First grocery shop with no help. First time stuck in a couple inches of snow. First time I could not get into a business because they chose an inaccessible location. First time I trained a puppy from a wheelchair. I was painfully self-conscious those first years. The pity smiles. The awkward questions. The stranger in the grocery store who asked to lay hands on me and pray. I coped by getting better at dog training. Kuno and I put a ridiculous number of miles on together. We took classes and found mentors. I learned to drive with hand controls, then bought a used accessible van so we could travel. This wheelchair has rolled all over the prairies when we've completed in Rally Obedience trials. We played in parks in the sun. Trained in the underground parking when it snowed. We gave presentations on service dogs, accessibility, and disability at community groups, schools, and post-secondary institutions. We challenged the city on multiple issues and became the unofficial accessibility watchdog team. At Christmas we raised funds for charities. More importantly, except for a couple of brutal weather days when I had to call emergency dog-walking help, we were out in the community being active. A lot of those kilometres were spent training very specific work: backing in a perfect heel, spins, pivoting beside the chair, even pivots with the dog in front facing me. We got so good it almost became a dance. He walked beside me the first time I rolled down the sidewalk in this chair. I rolled beside him on the last steps he took before he passed away. A few years ago Chesnyy joined the household and the kilometres started adding up faster. We started working with a government-qualified service dog organization and now we teach some of their classes. Last year Chesnyy and I moved into an accessible house with my best friend, and another Rottweiler puppy arrived. There are still a lot of walks left. Winter is still highly inaccessible. After 15,000 km the challenges have shifted. Many barriers are still there and we will keep tackling them. I am more confident now. It took a lot of work, but I have proven myself in the dog training community. I still miss things I can no longer do, but I have accepted this disability and I am trying to live my best life. The bigger fight now is pain. Chronic pain is not new. It was an issue before amputation. Phantom pain no longer surprises me. My shoulders hurts tremendously from transferring and lifting from a seated position. My back aches from sitting. And yes, my butt hurts. Pain makes motivation really hard. The dogs help with that. On the days when I just want to give up, wet noses nudge me on. 15,000 km is a lot for a power chair. I got this one in the fall of 2020. Techs are always shocked at the mileage. They typically see about 5,000 km over the life of a chair. This one will probably need replacing in the next year or so. Thankfully there is some government funding but they only fund base models. Good chairs that are easier on the body and actually work well cost a lot more. A full-time power wheelchair in Canada often starts around $15,000. Add tilt to help prevent pressure sores and you can easily add another $10,000. When you live in the chair it has to be customized. One of the hardest parts of disability is the cost. I am fortunate to have a consistent disability income that covers monthly bills but I don't have extended medical insurance to get upgraded equipment. Prescriptions, physical therapy, and a lot of disability related equipment is all out of pocket. I am not asking for money. I just want people to understand that power mobility is ridiculously expensive, and that a couple of giant-hearted Rottweilers made 15,000 km possible. Today I took the chair off the pavement and did a little 4x4ing so the dogs could run off-leash on a beautiful summer day. Watching them play, I thought about every hard kilometre that got us here. That still makes my heart smile. ❤️🐾❤️ Admin

I was out on my walk when a young man on a bicycle stopped and called out "That's the most beautiful female Rottweiler I've ever seen." I flashed a rottie smile and gave a tail wag. If the youth of today already have this much wisdom, the humans might be all right when they’re leading tomorrow. 🎥 Me being beautiful on a beautiful afternoon #TheresHopeForTheHumans #FutureLeaders

Every year we hunt Easter Eggs! It's my absawoofly favorite holiday activity! This year Bernoulli and Beaker from Bunsen, Beaker, Bernoulli & Brix came out to try. Bernoulli did great but it was Beaker's time to shine. That girl is a natural and was hunting eggs like she'd done this all her life! My little brother Kenji did very well considering he's just a baby. It was windy and between blowing leaves and the scary flapping plastic bag, it was a lot for his brain. Thankfully he didn't start barking in his young Justin Bieber voice and embarrass me. My pals Cloe_Bear and Detective Dug 🇨🇦 came out again this year. The 3 of us are pro level egg hunters. We could do this every single day and never get bored. Our only complaint was that we only got to find a dozen eggs each. We want more next year. A big bonus was the cold wind would have made wearing silly rabbit ears impossible. They'd have blown across the parking lot so we didn't have to do the boring stuff and could focus on treats. Best Easter Ever!!! 🎥 Highlights of our egg hunt #EasterEggHunt #Nosework #DogLife

🚨 Please stop and listen to my Ted Barkx about how a human doesn't need to be stylish, young, or affluent to be influential on social media. We've taken a middle-aged woman missing some body parts and as of today have 100K X followers. It just required a cool dog. That dog can help harness the power of the Interwoof to show people how to sniff out their own happiness, overcome big challenges, be the best version of themselves, and find joy in simplicity. That dog can remind humans that every day they can choose to make the world a little bit better and that they do make a difference. They will demonstrate that loving a dog gives you strength and being loved by a dog gives you courage. An individual's thoughts and feelings are significantly affected by the messages surrounding them. That's good news. It means you can choose if you want your influences to be positive, motivating and make you feel good, or if you want your influences to be negative, shallow, bitter, or miserable. You can never go wrong being influenced by a good dog. And for those that follow us, thanks for helping us spread a little sunshine, and hopefully, one woof at a time, make the world just a little bit better. 🎥 Me and my human give a Ted Barkx presentation from the kitchen #gratitude #100K #ListenToTheDogs #SurroundYourselfWithGoodness

Peanut came over to play with Kenji and work on some skills. Like sitting and laying down with us. And that we can't chase bicycles or rabbits, and we can't drag humans to fire hydrants, trees or strangers. That's a lot so we focus on her learning just to stay besides her human. Peanut found this really hard to do. She's not a bad dog. She's not a stubborn dog. She's a dog that hasn't had many boundaries and hasn't been exposed to a lot so she's struggling. Her human is not a bad dog mom. She's just really inexperienced with dogs, has a puppy growing much larger than she ever expected, and she created some really bad habits that she did not mean to create. But we're not going to judge her because it takes a lot of humility to ask for help. And everybody starts somewhere. When we judge or shame a dog owner that is trying to learn to do better, we become part of the problem. She needs to be able to feel comfortable asking questions and she needs to develop confidence. If I want to support a dog doing better, then I have to be supportive of the person at the other end of the leash that's trying to learn. With some guidance and lots of practice they will get much better. And in the meantime, Kenji loves these visits.

🐾There wasn't much sleep last night. The little man serenaded us with puppy classics like "I don't want to sleep in the puppy pen", "Where's my. momma and brothers and sisters" and of course "I pooped and stepped in it". So I made a few woofs and bounced around and it seemed to quiet him. 💤 But morning potty time sure came early and now Kenji has a few complaints about the scheduling of breakfast. I sure hope he wants a nap soon! #KenjiTalks #TheKenjiAndChesmyyShow Video description for inclusivity: a tiny Rottweiler puppy bounces around on a couch. Chesnyy lays on the floor nearby.

When your baby brother who's literally the size of a cooked Christmas turkey thinks he’s the boss of the house, but you’re a 100lb “please, make better choices” machine💪🐾 I was literally just standing there, vibing, existing in peace. This tiny menace comes flying in for a surprise chomp — one casual paw swipe and I accidentally yeeted him across the room like he was a curling rock on ice. He pops back up like a jack-in-the-box on steroids, charges for the full-body slam — hits me and bounces off like a tennis ball off a garage door. I give him the gentlest “kindly fluff off” correction known to dogkind — he flops, rolls over, and immediately pulls the Academy Award victim routine: big eyes, dramatic sigh, “why meeee?” The human steps in and sends us across the room and suggests we meditate as our antics are interrupting her Christmas baking marathon. Does the little terrorist reflect? Nope. He spends the next forever barking pure disrespect as he follows me around: “Old lady!” “Grandma!” “You’re too slow, fossil!” So I stroll over, pick up HIS holy tug rope (the one he’d fight a bear for), and just… hold it. Nice and high. Zero effort. Kenji absolutely loses his marbles. Popcorn jumps, helicopter spins, grunt-screaming like he’s trying to start a lawnmower, tiny Scrappy Doo legs paddling the air, tongue flapping like a flag in a hurricane. He clamps on, pulls with every ounce of his dramatic little soul…Rope doesn’t even twitch. I’m over here daydreaming about treats while he slowly melts into a sweaty, panting heap of defeated puppy. Moral of the story, Kenji: Keep testing Big Sis and you’ll keep collecting these free, gentle life lessons in glorious 4K. Love you anyway, rutabaga gremlin. #Servicerottie #RottweilerLife #BigSisterEnergy #KenjiTheMenace #TugOfWarFail #SiblingShenaniigans #InterwoofComedy 🎥 Evidence of the fluff I put up with

If you're a newer follower you may not have gotten to know Kuno. He was 125# of loyalty and heart. He taught me to live again after I lost my legs. He made me strong and gave me courage. He was my partner in crime and my assassin dog. 😉 #ThrowbackThursday #Kuno

Today I went with the humans to get the keys to our new home! The house that love bought!❤️ It was my first time in it. I found the front ramp and checked out the kitchen. The fridge spits ice if you push it with your nose!!! But the best part is the ramp to the backyard! It's not a big yard, but big enough for zoomies and ball!!!! The next few days are gonna be busy. We need to finish packing. Move stuff. There's some adaptations that we still need to do to like taking some doors off until they get widened, and maybe making the kitchen more functional for a wheelchair. We didn't stay long today. Just long enough to measure some things and have a good play. We have a lot to do the next few days. The movers are coming Saturday!

I love mailbox duty so much I would retrieve a brick if it had a barcode. 📦🐾 This parcel is not for me. I know because I smelled it like a customs agent with a wet snoot and it said “human stuff.” Did I still carry it home like I won an award? Yes. I have a brand. Yesterday Ruger sent a birthday card and I lost the plot in the best way. 💌 Work mail is fun. Mail that is actually mine made me do the treat-bag dance with no treat bag in sight. September 15 is my birthday. I would love a card from you. I will pick it up, parade it down the drive, and pretend I am delivering the Crown Jewels to a very good dog. Which I am. 👑🐕 Chesnyy the Servicerottie PO Box 20064 Edmonton RPO Beverly, AB T5A 5E6 Kenji turns 1 a few weeks later. He is still a baby. He is also approximately the size of a small sofa. 🛋️ He cannot fetch mail yet. He can only sit there being huge and emotionally available. A card for the giant toddler would keep household peace and also be hilarious. If you’d rather click than lick a stamp, there’s a wishlist at the bottom. Same joy. Fewer envelopes. I will still act like I personally approved the order. Wishlist: #RottieMail #SpecialDeliveryForMe #WorkingDog #BirthdayGirl #KenjiTurnsOne

I have whipped cream on my face and a stranger now believes dogs can operate buildings. 🐾🤍 This morning I tolerated an extra 75 pound youngster in my house. Then my human said “Starbucks” and “pup cup.” I remained extremely professional. I waited. I did not scream. I did not levitate. I just sat there looking noble, which is hard when you can smell whipped cream from three people away. My human's hands were full. Power wheelchair steering. Strange frozen human drink. My pup cup. My leash. So I took power door duty. Hopped up. Cute little paw smack. Door opened. 🚪 A man at a table looked at me like I had just invented electricity. “The dog opened the door!” Yes, sir. I also opened the second one. You’re welcome. We do not do this often. Budget is budget. But the human has been dealing with some ruff pain flares , and she works so hard not to let the hard days move in and unpack. Negative thoughts try to steal her motivation, and she cannot afford that. Watching the monster pups play this morning helped. This little stop helped too. We go past this place almost every day. Today we went in on purpose. Today I got the fluffy cup. Today she got a little girl time and some extra caffeine before we go to teach leash manners class tonight. She made me eat it outside so the whipped cream stayed on my face and not on the entire Starbucks. Worth it. 10/10. Would open doors again. What’s your tiny thing that helps you get through a rough day? #PupCup #DogsOfX #TinyWins #GoodGirl

🐾I'm Chesnyy, a highly trained Service Rottweiler, and I'm filing an official complaint about today’s “family photo” session. 📸 The Human: “Chesnyy, just put your paw over Kenji’s shoulder and act like you love your little brother for five seconds.”🐶♥️ Me: Approaches with the patience of a saint. Gently places paw on shoulder like I’m diffusing a bomb.💣 Kenji: Immediately transforms into a greased eel on a Red Bull binge. Wiggles, spins, attempts to eat my entire leg. Me: Okay, reposition #1. Reposition #2 through #47. Still looks like I’m trying to hug a blender set to “puree.” Kenji: Now adding interpretive dance and occasional attempted murder of my paw. And my face. Me: Fine. Diplomacy has failed. → Big sister protocol engaged: Hook paw under his chest, drag him across the floor like a stubborn Roomba, flip him flat on his back with extreme prejudice. Pin. Stare directly into his tiny chaotic soul until he submits. The Human: click 📸“Perfect! Got it!” Translation: The photo looks adorable. Kenji appears sweet and innocent. I look like the calm, loving big sister. The truth? I just performed a hostage negotiation with a furry tornado. 🌪️ Reward for my heroic efforts? One cookie tossed across the room so I could finally release the kraken and chase it in peace. Little brothers are proof that evolution has a sense of humor. Who else is stuck wrangling a pint-sized terrorist disguised as a puppy? Drop your “sibling takedown” videos below—I need evidence I’m not the only one living this nightmare.
