Summer is, without a doubt,Β Bruni’sΒ favourite time of the year. If she is not enjoying adventures and hikes, she can be found sitting on the best patch of sunshine inside the house or outside on the grass. In August, Bruni had an excellent balance of play and...

BruniΒ is definitely enjoying her summer. She had time to visit her favourite sitters, Ewa and Karen, and spent time giving them some love. She has had the opportunity to do many mall outings, go to concerts, watch the new Thor, go on hikes (Lindeman is her favourite)...

BruniΒ enjoys her days when she can spend time with her favorite people at the local school. She has had trips to off-leash parks, Kilby historic site, the library, and various stores. Bruni has excellent recall and obedience and likes to please her human. We have made...

This month,Β BruniΒ has a new schedule to help with her training. Her lovely raisers have been going the extra mile (literally) to pick her up from her trainer’s house every day and drop her off every night. Bruni was finding it challenging to be around so many...

Bruni has a new schedule recently that she really likes. She spends every evening at the sitters and every day at the trainers. Bruni was finding the living quarters at the trainer’s house a little too congested with other dogs. She also found herself being very...

This little cutie has needed a little extra time to settle into advanced training, and we are happy to give her the extra time she needs. She has some spikey arousal that she is learning to regulate. Bruni really enjoys running alongside the power chair and is always...

This was our last full month with Bruni. She has been such a light in our lives and the lives of our students. It has also been fun to transition through so many phases of life with this wicked awesome pup, including getting a new PADS pup! Right at the end of the...

Bruni had a firecracker of a December. We had the absolute joy of celebrating her second birthday and she got all of the spoils from the students at school. There was also a lot of change in store for Bruni this month as we stayed at two different houses with our...

Bruni continues to light up the world of so many students. All students, regardless of their state of mind, seek her out in the hallways, eager to see Bruni. AND she is now loving the cuddles — she used to just tolerate them, haha! A humorous story from a grade...

October was a huge month for socialization — if you thought September was busy… phew! Let us tell you about October. Bruni is a pandemic puppy which means she gets to experience a lot of “firsts” of late. This month included a hockey game and...

Bruni has been back to school for a full month. For the most part, she does incredibly well with children and gives them all the love in the world. As we walk down the hall together, you can hear students saying “AW, Bruni!!” and following her around. She...

Bruni is an absolute gem. People consistently gawk at her because she is incredibly cute and well behaved. While we had a rocky start to the summer with every reopening again, Bruni found her groove and is now eager to go on every adventure, and “chill”...

July was a treat for Bruni as her favourite big brother, PADS Tommy came to visit. Everyone in the house was smiling. Perhaps Bruni’s highlight of July though was stealing Tommy’s Costco bed and discovering the joys thereof! We also went to Vancouver...

Bruni had a pretty big month. It started off excellently when we noticed our very own Mr Tommy was Mr June in the PADS calendar. For the most part, she was recovering from her spay doing absolutely nothing for two weeks. It was tough for this go-getter to just chill...

We love spring! Bruni adores the glorious sunshine and all the new plants/animals visiting our backyard. She just sits back and observes, taking it all in. This month, we had Cobbler and Pepper spend some time with us. At first Bruni was a little hesitant, but they...

It has been a beautifully full month with Bruni. As it warms up, you will find her in slivers of sunshine or outside on the grass in the sun, merely observing the world. She particularly loves watching the mason bees buzz around near their little house and spending...

If Bruni could tell us how her March was, we are sure she would tell us it was a little bit boring. Bruni was in heat, so she could not do much. On top of that, all her “siblings” left, and she became an only child again. She was, however, certainly...

It feels like overnight, Bruni went from being a puppy to this tall, strong and elegant young lady dog! This month, we puppy-started PADS Autumn, so for the most part, Bruni was at sitters getting new experiences. The change of new handlers and a teeny tiny puppy was...

Bruni went to school a lot during January. The high schoolers definitely love her, but she also got to spend time with a variety of students in K-12. Young children are definitely her favourite. She continues to work on greeting them appropriately and not let her...

It was a joy to celebrate Bruni turning one year old this December! It is remarkable to reflect on this incredible pup that she is, and how this wee little energetic pup is now a young lady (but still with lots of energy). Bruni LOVES to work, and goes from 0 to 180...

As Bruni approaches 1 years of blessing us with her presence here on earth, she seems to be growing like a weed. At times she still has her cute puppy face and yet, at other times, she has a beautiful elegance about her. Not to mention, she has gotten tall! Bruni has...
