Jen and Daiquiri: A Tail-Wagging Tale of Tricks and Triumph

Jen and Daiquiri: Meet Jennifer Fraser and her extraordinary Australian Shepherd, Daiquiri, a duo whose bond and talent have captivated audiences worldwide. Hailing from Alberta, Canada, this pair has turned dog training into an art form, blending precision, creativity, and pure joy in their performances.
Daiquiri, a blue merle Australian Shepherd born on May 8, 2015, is no ordinary pup. With an uncanny knack for learning, he’s mastered an arsenal of tricks that have earned him 13 Guinness World Records—including the jaw-dropping feat of performing 60 tricks in just one minute! From pulling socks off feet (21 in a minute, to be exact) to weaving through legs in record time, Daiquiri’s skills are as impressive as his enthusiasm. His performances, like the viral Crufts 2022 routine set to Dolly Parton’s Cracker Jack (viewed over 14 million times on TikTok), showcase his agility, intelligence, and charm.
Jennifer, a veteran dog trainer with over 35 years of experience, is the genius behind Daiquiri’s brilliance. Starting her training journey at age three under her grandmother’s guidance, she now runs Paradise Kennels, a luxury dog hotel east of Calgary. Her positive reinforcement techniques—dubbed “dog training naked” for their leash- and collar-free approach—have shaped Daiquiri into a superstar. Their journey together began when Jennifer, initially hesitant, adopted Daiquiri after learning his birthday matched that of her late Australian Shepherd, Spice. It was love at first trick, and the rest is history.
Together, Jen and Daiquiri have dazzled on stages like America’s Got Talent (2020), Canada’s Got Talent (2021), and Crufts (2022 and 2023), where they represented Canada in canine freestyle. Their magic-themed act, complete with Daiquiri pulling rabbits out of hats, has left audiences spellbound. Beyond the spotlight, they’ve performed in Chile, Germany, and Milan, Italy, for a Guinness World Record show, proving their global appeal.
What makes this duo truly special is their bond. “He’s basically a perfect dog,” Jennifer says, praising Daiquiri’s ability to pick up new skills almost instantly. For Daiquiri, every trick is a chance to make Jennifer smile—and to steal the show. Their story is one of trust, teamwork, and a shared passion for pushing boundaries, inspiring dog lovers everywhere to dream big with their furry friends.
