October was different for me. Iโ€™m getting to be a grown-up dog now, even though sometimes I still get treated like a puppy. But sometimes, I want to do things my way, and my raisers are learning how to work with me on that.

I stayed at sitters for almost a week this month. The sitters were really nice. They were good at letting me do things my way. But I was glad to see my regular raiser when he came to pick me up.

Iโ€™m getting to be really big and strong now. I weigh 60 pounds. I donโ€™t like getting on the scale at the pet store, but I like knowing how big Iโ€™m getting to be.

I almost forgot. We went to the aquarium this month. There were lots of people and quite a few PADS dogs. Liked the sea lions the best because they bark kinda like me.
