It is finally 2023, and I’m glad to be spending time again with my raiser after they’ve come back from a holiday vacation. This month, I am practicing my recall with long-line leash walking and during occasional romping with other PADS pals. I got to spend time with Comox and Thresher the other week, and we went on a long hike around Burnaby Mountain, which was a blast! I really enjoy being around my other furry friends and hope to build my skills like some of the other PADS role models I see in our community. Can’t wait for what this year has in store!
