Hey PADS Village!!!

Wow – are you telling me September is over already!!?? I guess I was having such a great time, I didn’t notice!!

For the first half of the month, I was with a PADS Sitter while my hooman was in Europe. Aren’t PADS Sitters the best!! We had such a great time with lots of long walks and cuddles, and butt scritches. We got to travel on a ferry and visit Gabriola Island. Now I love being near the water.

And then my hooman was back, but there was still lots going on, including a big family reunion and birthday event where I was the star of the show. It was exhausting, but I loved it.

But it hasn’t been all fun and games – there is some real work too. I finally learned how to jump into the back of my hooman’s car – thanks to some great dried sweet potato treats. And we are working on getting me comfortable being alone in my kennel, ’cause that’s something I still don’t like. We also spend a little bit of time each day working on things I already know, because my hooman says we want to make them “prettier”. Aren’t I pretty enough?

I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen this month!!

Bonus Pupdate:

Hi Everyone, Kashtin here.

Reporting from my sitter, Lindsay’s house in Steveston. It’s so fun here – there is SO much to sniff and discover in this neck of the woods! We’ve gone on lots of little adventures together, gone to a movie, and had dinner at a restaurant. We even went to Gabriola Island, which was super fun. I was such a good boy in the car and on the ferry.

Lindsay gives pretty great belly scratches and regularly asks me if I’m the best boy ever – which obviously I am. She also says I’m a bit of a land shark (picture for evidence) and that I’m a “typical teenager,” but I pretend not to hear her because, like, what does that even mean??

Until next time,
Kashtin
