Back in December, hooman had a conversation with my trainer to talk about how amazing I am. She told the trainer all the great things I do and mentioned some challenges I face in day-to-day life. This month I had an in-person follow-up with my new class trainers to...

April was surprisingly sunny outside, so hooman and I took full advantage of the nice weather. I spent extra time practicing my car protocol as she loaded me in the car and off to a local trail or park. Hooman made me earn off-leash time through the practice of cues...

Hi Friends, March started off super fun for me as I continued my normal routine. But then I got a case of the sillies and began sleeping a ton. All that funny behaviour was getting me ready for my heat brain (as hooman called it), which meant I got a whole month off...

The month of January marked a start of a new semester for hooman and an end to our holiday time. Although we had fun in the trails and being in the forest, it was back to neighbourhood walks and settling on my bed for me. To switch things up a bit, I spent time with...

Guess what, friends? December was my birthday month!! I turned one and celebrated with a tasty cake and some new toys. This year has flown by, and I look forward to the coming year. In other news, hooman finished another semester of school. We spent most of the time...

The month of November brought continued PHOs for our region and hooman and I took the time to spend the month mostly out of cape. We’ve been having some great snuggles while she continues online classes and it gives me the opportunity to practice my off-switch....

Nothing like the sound of crunchy leaves and bright fall colours. Hooman and I have been soaking up the last bit of nice weather and spending time settling outside. Learning to turn off in all kinds of environments is important so I am making the most of these new...

September was a month spent practicing my settling skills under the hoomans desk or on my bed. She’s spending an awful lot of time looking at the computer screen while focusing on school work. We have had to make a couple of trips to the campus, which gave me...

Oh, the days of summer have come to an end, my friends! August was a month full of more neighbourhood walks and fun forest romps with some of my PADS friends, Yelena and released Wasabi. We are still mostly hunkering down with this pandemic so we have just been...

This month, just like the past three, have been rather adventurous. Not many things have changed and I and hooman are staying at home lots. We have been taking this time to work really hard on my house manners. Sometimes I don’t know what comes over me but I...

As we continue to get used to the “new norm”, hooman and I have been exploring the neighbourhood and local trails for new experiences. This month I went down to the river for my first experience in the water. It was a blast! I was disappointed to learn...

This month was a really strange one. We spent a ton of time at home with all the hoomans and my best friend, Eeyore. I’m used to going to work, school, and all kinds of short, fun trips in the community, but I hung up my cape and am focusing on house manners at...

This month we started off strong with continued school classes and work with the hooman. I was trying my best to get used to relaxing in those busy environments and learning that not all the people around me are there to pet me. [I’m still trying to figure out...

On Valentine’s day I got to go home with my puppy raisers to officially start my training. It was a month filled with lots of first and exploring new sight, smells, and environments. So far I have been with my new hoomans for two weeks and am learning new things...
