We are thrilled to announce our newest team! Everyone, meet Ross and Freya! Ross shared his story on how this partnership came to be! “Freya and I have been ‘matched’ for several years, first as a puppy in training and then as a PADS breeding dog. It...

Oh woof, woof and woof! It is a new year, and let me tell you that there have been many changes for me and my hoomans. I am sad to say but very proud to say that this is my last pupdate. Have no fear, for I am fine, but I am no longer a puppy in training – sort...

Oh, woof! It is December and boy, I have been a busy pup. My hoomans started to bring out lots and lots of boxes filled with lights and decorations. And then they put up a tree inside my house! What were they thinking? After I had a good sniff and looked around, they...

It’s November and I’m sooo excited. My hoomans told me I had to be patient. Not sure what that is but I think it’s like being given the cue ‘wait’ before I go out a door. So I’ve been patient and I got my reward. I was expecting a...

Oh woof! Where do the days go? September is over and here is October already. I guess I made an impression on the school hoomans where PADS sitter Miss Fiona works because they made me my very own staff card. I haven’t been able to pick it up yet because I have...

I was laying in the sun just dog dreaming about the stuff I did in September when “woof” I realized nobody knows! I have to fix that pronto… I went on my longest trail hike ever. I almost made it to the top of the Gloria Lookout trail. It was all up with lots of...

Oh wow it is already August. Summer is almost over and I haven’t even been to the beach! My hoomans fixed that and managed to work in some training too. I went to visit retired PADS Halo and her raiser Teri. She took us on a wonderful walk but it was not all...

Time flies when you are having fun! At least that is what my hoomans tell me, if that is the case then I am having a blast! At the start of the month I went to school several times with PADS sitter Fiona. I quietly settled in her class, listened to student...

My hoomans say it is now March 60th! Not sure what that means but I think it is why I have not been able to go visit and shop with them. It has given me time to practice resting in my kennel during the day. But I still get out to stretch my legs. After all a girl just...

I am not a fan of social distancing, as it has put a damper on my shopping trips and visits. But I am making the best of a very strange situation. I am still getting out for walks but have to travel a bit further to avoid the crowds. I am so fortunate to have PADS...

Wow! Where to begin, there has been so many changes. My hoomans told me we have to lay low for awhile because of a very small bug called the Covid19 virus. I really am a social butterfly and agreed to temporarily hang up my cape until things return to normal. This bug...

Wow, what a month! I have been a busy puppy or should I say, young lady. I turned one on February 8th and to celebrate my birthday I got to romp on the trails with my BFF PADS Bonnie. It was great to have a long run and sniff fest by the lake. Afterwards I was really...

I finished 2019 with a 4 day stay over with puppy sitter Raffi. We had an excellent time together exploring many new places. Raffi took me on 3 more different buses since I did so well on the first one! Then we went to a SkyTrain station where I heard strange noises...

My raisers warned me that December would be a busy month. Boy were they right! A couple of little people came and stayed at my house for two days. At the beginning they were nervous with me being near them and I was really interested in them. But we all quickly...

My raisers were very busy in November and took me to many places, some of which were familiar and some new and very different. I went to different mall and took PADS Bonnie along for company. We met PADS Velvet and her raiser Teri. Teri put us all through our paces...

My raisers have told me “Fall is in the air”. The air does smell different but I think that is because of the local bears who are still wandering about. I went to the PADS Grad and saw lots of clients with their new companion. I was very proud to be there...

I have been working really, really hard to ignore other dogs when I am out and about. I am also working at controlling my excitement when I have the opportunity to say “Hi” to family, friends, and strangers. My raisers took me to a place called Vancouver....

I have been a busy puppy this August. My raisers are still busy fixing up our home, so I have been practicing being cool and calm despite having strangers in my home. They are working and making noise – even when I am relaxing in my kennel. This month I went to...

This month my raisers were busy packing and preparing to move to a new home. I was well behaved and quietly watched the packing people pack. I helped my raisers select new appliances at Home Depot. The sales associates know me by name and are excited to see me when I...
