Keys Jan 2016 DSC_0081 sml Hello from Keys in Calgary.

There has been a lot happening here in Calgary since my last update.ย ย  I am really excited to be coming to Vancouver to meet new friends and see if I have the โ€œRight Stuffโ€ to carry on my path as an assistance dog.ย  I am a little nervous to leave the only home I have ever known in Airdrie, and my raiser Samantha Edgar, and the Edgar family.ย  I also have grown up with my mom, Tully, and will really miss her also.ย  I also have a new friend, Lennon from the Beatles litter, at my house, great little guy and will miss him too.ย ย  I am pretty attached to the family, so this will be a big adventure for me, my first time away from home without them, I guess itโ€™s like sending your human kids off to University, or so my raiser, Sammy tells me.ย ย  I hope I get a good roomie in BC ย that can help me adjust .ย  I hear the trainers at PADS are excellent, I will really try my best to work with them .ย ย  I have visited PADS with Sam, and last year at grad we went to the beach in White Rock, and it was so much fun.ย ย  Maybe I will get to see Roma, and her new puppies, so I can say hello for Lennon, Roma is his mom, and I told him I would try if my new handlers can make that happen I would be really happy, I love puppies! ย Sammy tells me if I ever need to come home there will always be a spot for me , so that makes me feel better, I love her most, but my goal is to be an assistance dog, for a person that needs me, a partner for life.ย ย ย  Thanks everyone for your help at class in Calgary, I will try and update you once I get settled in BC.

Samโ€™s dad has attached aย picture of me in my vest, I am pretty proud to be a PADS dog !
