This month was full of adventures and growing!
We started off the month with having a sleepover at Barb and Griff’s, where Griff helped me through my uncertainty of stairs, and I’m happy to say that I am now a pro going up and down stairs.
The list of new places I’ve got to explore with the big pups has grown this month with trips to:
- Burnaby Village with PADS Sawyer
- Scienceworld with PADS Sheen – apparently, I weigh the same as a Wolverine!
- Chinatown
- Lonsdale Quay
- Grouse Mountain with PADS Sheen and Parker
- Capilano Suspension Bridge with PADS Parker
Phew, it was a lot of fun, as well as going to the office with my raiser and spending time with her sparks and guides. As well as well-deserved, relaxing days!
Puppy class, where we are working on our dog distraction, which is very useful when I like to take trips out with the big pups. I also got to spend the weekend with PADS Sheen, and it did take us a moment to coexist without wanting to constantly play but when we got it, it was great settling together!
I got my vaccines this month, so I was able to start experiencing some off-leash trails. These were lots of fun, being able to play with pup friends outside and getting special treats when I come back to my raiser when she calls and even for check-ins!
Finally, we had a party! Though someone stole my pupcake before I even had a chance to eat it, luckily, there was extra, so I was able to have my first-ever pumpkin pupcake!
