In March I turned 11 months old! I went on lots of shopping adventures, including to Costco, Wal-Mart, Ikea, and the mall to pick out some new shoes (apparently they’re for my raiser, not me though..), and I also went to the bowling alley for the first time. I...

I finally made it to the double digits and turned 10 months old in February! I went to Metrotown Mall and got to practice my “go in” in public under a really low bench! I also went to a de-stress event at UBC for students living in residence – there...

I turned nine months old in January! January was filled with lots of playtime with my other PADS puppy pals, as well as continuing to go with my raiser to the office for my canine-to-five job. I’m continuing to learn how to live with little gerbils in the...

In December, Hero got to meet Santa Paws! Hero also accompanied me to our office Christmas party, in his handsome Christmas elf sweater. The party was complete with very loud music and photo booths and trying to show off his impulse-control skills! He also went to...

This month was filled with all things Halloween – from dino decorations at Home Depot to Batman costumes, picking out pumpkins at Superstore to later carving them with a dozen other people. In October, Hero also went to his first volleyball match at SFU (he was...

Hero experienced the ocean for the first time in September – he still isn’t a swimmer, but definitely gained some more confidence playing in the water. Hero had lots of store outings, including going to Metrotown where he did great with crowds, noises,...

Hero went on his first camping trip in August to Manning Park! We had a bit of a random schedule (late nights, early mornings, car rides all over the place) as we were crewing for runners doing an ultramarathon trail race over a ~48 hour time period, but Hero was a...

August was a very busy month for me – full of new experiences, including camping! My raisers took me to Manning Park and I swam in the lake..more because it was so hot there, not really because I actually liked the water – I’ll get used to it soon,...

July meant I turned three months old and had to try my skills at tongue-out-Tuesday – I think I was successful! I continued joining my short raiser at the office this month, and I also made some new friends – PADS Piers and Taylor! I also completed the...

On June 9th I went to my puppy raisers! And the very next day I went on my first skytrain ride and watched my first track race. Okay, so I didn’t really watch them run..I mean, they were just running around in circles..it was much more fun to stare into my...
