- Join Sarah Jones as she begins her journey to meet some of the legendary working dogs across Australia.
In our very first episode, Sarah visits the team from the Middle Island Penguin Project and gets to meet SEVEN of the wonderful Maremmas that protect the Little Penguins of Middle Island off the coast of Warrnambool, as made famous by the movie Oddball.
For more information on the Middle Island Maremmas visit - www.warrnamboolpenguins.com.au/
When staying in Warrnambool, our cast and crew chose to stay at the Deep Blue Hotel & Hot Springs, find more here - thedeepblue.com.au/
=================================================================================
They're working "Ca-Nine to Five" - Dog Jobs focuses on the different types of dogs who perform a job of significance, brightening the lives of the people and environment that surrounds them.
Did somebody say wholesome?!
The first series will be hosted by comedian/ventriloquist and zoo employee, Sarah Jones, and will look to tell positive and heart-warming stories of working dogs all across the country.
Episode one looks at the wonderful Middle Island Maremma's that work to protect the rare Little Penguins that inhabit the island off the coast of Warrnambool (the subject of the 2015 Australian film Oddball).
Airing on C31 Melbourne and elsewhere across Australia in 2020.

watched this with my maremma, we both enjoyed it. The most amazing and love filled breed of dog. When they are described as untrainable it's very unfair, what I found is that the proud and intelligent maremma quietly finds a way to fit into the lifestyle of your family and community. I live in a housing community in a regional area and the tenants are all either elderly or invalids in some way, my maremma is so aware of who is fragile and who is fit and greets them accordingly. She seems totally aware of her size and never leaps about and even wags her tail gently when indoors visiting a neighbour, it's so good to share your life with a dog that is welcomed happily everywhere you take her. Perhaps my girl is an exception to a rule but she hated living on a farm and since we've moved to a small country town she is so relaxed, content and friendly. I love my maremma.
They are trainable - with people who understand the Breed. Each Dog Breed is different - why are Australia’s Pounds & Rescue Groups overrun with Dogs that have been dumped iir abandoned. Most of the Pound Dogs are euthanised to make room for more Dogs that arrive daily/weekly Because people are stupid !!!!😡😡😡
I can definitely relate with you. Maremma Sheepdogs can live in dense communities if raised from little puppies and exposed to all kinds of humans and dogs - our neighbour Italian lady (his “nonna”) always has a treat for him. They're not very active dogs, but need to go out for long walks periodically; and let them sniff their way around to catch up on the latest neighbourhood news (very curious dogs). Despite their impressive size, they relate gently to all the members in the community; and as they are guardian dogs they protect the property and family from strangers. They can be trained for basic commands, but their smart and independent personalities make them extremely charming. It's more like raising a respectful child with his own personality, than a dog that simply obeys commands.
A true Roman personality (smart, independent, curious, protector, fierce, playful, regal, charming) that reflects the breed's origins when Rome lead the Western civilization.
We just can't love enough our Pastore Maremmano-Abruzzese boy!
Watching this with mine too, she is perfectly trained and the best house dog ever, we do live on the edge of a country town with bush all around us… 90% of the time she just lulls around and never does anything, she does guard very very well xo
@@joseramongutierrez8018I love ❤️ ❤❤❤ mine, my new favourite breed of dog x they are so smart so sweet so loving x ours has decided our daughter is its reason to live, that’s ok 👌 who wouldn’t want a Maremma as their guardian?? ❤
I just smiled for 23 minutes and 19 seconds ☺️
My brother visited and bought home a little statue of the dogs. Brilliant idea. Thanks for caring for the penguins.
The goodest bois
Great story!! Love maremma dogs!! 💕
What a fantastic project! When international travel can resume safely this will definitely be in my list of places to visit!
They said it’s closed to the public because of the dogs
A very enjoyable, uplifting video.Thank you so much for posting.
Wonderful story, excellent video - thanks!
Grandi i pastori maremmani abruzzesi cuore bianco per tutta la vita🥰🥰🥰🥰
This is exactly the content I needed just now, thank you
I love that the dog's name is Oberon. After all, he has a job protecting *fairy* penguins.
They come from Mid-Southern Italy, not Northern. In fact the real name of the breed is pastore abruzzese-maremmano, referring to the Abruzzo region, while maremma was the general name of marshy areas near the sea (which is the reaso why in Tuscany there is a Maremma area too).
I would love to watch the whole season. Where can we watch other episodes?
I think that's why the movie oddball was made
They are "Pastori Maremmani" from central Italy, an area called Maremma :)
Vero... Sulle montagne tra Orbetello e Grosseto
Maremmani-Abbruzzesi please...
@@taddarita75 semplicemente "ABRUZZESI". non sono mai esistiti i maremmani
@@taddarita75 non per forza abruzzesi.. anche laziali o toscani :D
@@davide88rome in base alle tua teoria... Il brunello è anche laziale, marchigiano... E lo si può imbottigliare anche a Caltanissetta
What about the Awsome bloke Swampy Marsh who donates the pup's & is the person solely behind this conservation idea.
are they allowed off the boardwalk?
Loved it! How do we watch the next episode?
Whole series playlist on our channel :)
Just curious what all this costs. Just the food is $10,000/year. Thanks to all the wonderful sponsors!
They aren’t called “Maremma” but “Abruzzese-maremmano”, or “Maremmano”, not “Meremma”.
Maremma is the region of Italy (in Tuscany) where they come from
Beautiful animals :)
May be human poachers as well..
Thinking of getting maremma
So the Irish came etc
If you don't mind me saying, these dogs look more like Kuvasz than Maremma, just saying!
Thank you very much for uploading this video!
Kind regards, George
I think a Kuvasz has a narrower head.
Talking talking talking.....
The opening is way too long ……
Love "Cani Pastori Abruzzesi". 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
