Description
Fire Hydrant Dog painting. Australian Kelpie Sheepdog sitting behind a red fire hydrant. A fire hydrant is one of the dog's most desired places to sniff. My dog is no different. She will brace herself and not let me move along until she fully inspects the fire hydrants in our neighborhood. She was the inspiration for this painting. She has a crazed look on her face knowing I would like to continue our walk. The scene is a familiar one: a dog approaches a hydrant, sniffs it, lifts his leg, and … well you get the idea. While not exclusive to dogs, territorial marking is certainly one of the behaviors most commonly associated with them. A fire hydrant, also called a fireplug, fire pump, johnny pump, or simply pump, is a connection point by which firefighters can tap into a water supply. It is a component of active fire protection. The Australian Kelpie, or simply Kelpie, is an Australian sheepdog successful at mustering and droving with little or no guidance. It is a medium-sized dog and comes in a variety of colors.
