This month has been very hot, a lot. So I’ve been doing different things to keep cool. I sometimes move from my bed to the floor, and I even like to lie in front of the fan. When we’re in the back yard, I even like to go in the little pool and cool off, sometimes...

June has kept me somewhat busy. We’ve had some very hot days this month, so I’ve been trying to keep myself cool. Been going out for lots of walks, but on the really hot days, I go in the morning and at night when it’s cooler, and don’t have to worry about my...

This month was nothing out of the ordinary. Although I’ve heard PADS wants me to be part of the breeding program. Now, I will have to go for some tests to be sure I pass. This month, I did the heart test. I felt so groggy that day and didn’t eat till late morning. I’m...

I think that I am still feeling a little tired from when I was in heat. But this month, I went to 2 sitters. I was at the first sitter for 4 days & the other sitter for 6 days. The first one had another dog I could play with, but the other one I was alone. I came...

Well, this month was not as busy for me as last month. I went into heat and so could not do much until after the middle of March. I was a lot more tired this time too. Sometimes, I just didn’t want to do anything. Most of what I did during my heat was walk around my...

This has been an amazing month for me. We got snow this month, and I got to go out and have fun in it. I love snow, and playing in it is so much fun. Also, this month, we had the Invictus Games come to Vancouver, and I got to be a part of it. What an honour that was....

This was another busy month for me as my raisers wanted to make sure I was getting out doing stuff even though the weather was not great sometimes. From going to the mall and into a few stores, to taking walks in the rain. I did some trail walks. One of them was in...

This month was one of my busiest of the year. I did a lot and also went to a lot of places. I went to be with a nice lady whose PADS puppy just moved on, so we spent a few hours together. PADS had a Christmas/Holiday party that I went to with my raisers. It was a lot...

It’s been a very good month for me. Between going to my puppy classes and doing some outings, I have been keeping busy. I went to Douglas College a few times this month to help the students learn how to be good dog doctors. I think they’re called vets. There is still...

The month of October has been a lot different for me. My raiser was on vacation and then picked me and I was home for a few days and had to go back to my favourite sitter lady due to a family emergency. So, I was only with my family for 9 days this month. I spent the...

Hello everyone, It’s me, Lumina. I’ve been a bit busy this month again, but this time my raisers remembered to take pictures. I was still in heat for the first week. After that, I started doing more things again outside. I went for a lot of walks in September but one...

August was a month where we were so busy, so much so that my raisers forgot to take pictures. I went with them to visit with friends. I even went to a BBQ where there was another dog that I knew. She is my friend. We played a bit then just chilled a bit. Mostly...

July 2024 Pupdate I would like to say that this has been a bit of a busy month. I went to a small lake so that I could learn to be on a paddleboard. I did pretty well and finally was able to relax while sitting on the board. My raisers brought out their little pool so...

June 2024 Pupdate Well, let’s see what has been going on with me this month. I’ve mostly done a lot of things, except for 1 week when one of my raisers wasn’t feeling well. I wanted to play and do stuff, but she just didn’t want to and that was strange to me. But at...

This month, I have been busy doing different things. My raisers took me for a walk on a trail and also did some geocaching. What a great way to find new trails and find cool stuff too, except that there are no dog treats in those containers. On one of my walks, which...

So the first 6 days of April I was with another raiser. They did a puppy swap & I went to stay with Taj’s raiser and do things with her. I went to classes at UBC, met their mascot, and hung out with my brother, Casper, and Auntie Parker. I had so much fun...

I am really settling in, more and more, and this month shows it. I have become calmer and can settle much easier. I can ride in the vehicle and just lie down to rest or sleep. I can jump out now too, but not in, as there’s not enough room. I’ve been doing so well in...

I am almost 4 months old and have found that February for me seemed to go a bit slower. I have been going to my classes and learning to do a lot of things. I like going because I get to see the other bigger dogs and learn some pretty cool stuff. So many new things...

Hi, it’s me Lumina again. I have been settling into my new home much better now. I got to go on a walk around a park that had lots of lights. Actually, I sometimes walked and sometimes went in the wagon when I got too tired. My little feet just can’t go that fast...
