Well, I had QUITE a month! For starters, I had always been reluctant to climb long flights of open stairs like the ones at a favourite park of ours in North Vancouver. My human dad (known to PADS as Perry the Human, as opposed to Perry the Pup!) couldn’t...

My man person, βPerry, The Humanβ (not PADS pup Perry!), picked me up from Allisonβs on January 4th. Allison sat me over Christmas, but she didnβt take me to Christmas dinner b/c apparently I am not a good βparty animalβ right now – or I am βtoo good of a party...

My first, as the people call it: Christmas! They put a tree INSIDE the house! But they would not let me smell it for pee-mail. If I were a boy dog and not very polite, even though I really wanted the shinier chew toys they put up sooo high, I would have pushed that...

I’ve had another very busy month with my raisers. My mom is very focused on getting me to walk nicely and behave more calmly when around other dogs or seeing birds like crows on the ground. I’ve continued to grow and get very strong, so I know I can be...

Well, September started out a bit poignant as I had to see my “bro” off to Grade 7 after all the fun we had over the summer. Oh well, there are still weekends and “ProD days”, whatever those are. Mom Charly is really working hard on my...

My folks marvel every morning when they take me out of my kennel, that I’ve seemingly grown another couple of inches overnight! Last month they went on something called an ‘Alaska Cruise” and said they were leaving me home because they didn’t...
