Well, this is going to be my final Pupdate. I have done extremely well with all my training, and I get along so well with people, young and old, as well as other animals. Unfortunately, it seems that my issues with allergies are such that it is just not feasible for...

August was another busy and fun month. I spent an extended time on the Sunshine Coast, with a Sitter (Kathy). I really enjoy my time with her, as we have lots of new experiences. She taught me how to ride a stand-up paddleboard (SUP). It is good practice for remaining...

June was an interesting and eventful month. Over the last few weeks, I have had the opportunity to spend time with a couple of Sitters, as well as with my Raiser. As well, I made another big excursion on BC Ferries, so that I could spend some great outdoor time in the...

I had opportunities to do more travelling this month. I feel completely at ease, and welcome, on the BC Ferries. I did pretty well at practicing “recall” at the beach, although there are certainly a lot of distractions available to me. I am very chill when...

December was full of more excitement! I rode on the bus for the first time, and although it took me a few stops, I finally settled, much to the other passengers’ praise and delight. I have been doing really well during bathtime or when my humans give me paw-dicures. I...

I moved in with my new raiser family on October 31st, and it started out with a real “bang.” My raisers were impressed with how calm I was, given all the excitement with the doorbell, trick-or-treaters, and fireworks. This month I have been on lots of...
