This month I did a puppy swap and went to live in the city for a few days with a different raiser.ย  It was such a great learning experience.ย  I spent the days in an office going to board meetings, team building seminars and learned to settle under a cubicle.ย  We also had to take skytrain and buses everywhere (this was a little stressful).ย  I was definitely glad to come home to my country life but grateful for the opportunity.ย 

We also had one of my fellow in-training puppies stay with us for a weekend.ย  This was another great experience learning how to call my own timeouts and that itโ€™s ok to not play all the time.ย  We made quite the good snuggle buddies.

This month I also met my sponsor and the lady I was named after.ย  I was very excited to show them how my training has been going and share some of my cuddling skills. They were so nice to me – they brought me some new toys and some bananas (heard through the grapevine theyโ€™re my favourite treat!)

If all that wasnโ€™t enough I got to go camping twice and visited the Agrifair and the PNE.ย  Such a busy, busy fun filled learning month!!!!
