Soย theย firstย 6ย days of Aprilย Iย was with another raiser.ย  They did a puppy swap & I went to stay with Tajโ€™s raiser and do things with her.ย  I went to classes at UBC, met their mascot, andย hung out with my brother, Casper, and Auntie Parker.ย  I had so much fun playing with the other dogs walking on different trails.

I went to watch Pickleball, which was a lot of fun andย metย so manyย niceย people who wanted to know more about me.ย  I even got my picture taken with some medal winners.ย 

My raisers have been taking me pretty much everywhere they go.ย  I heard itโ€™s because Iโ€™ve been so good while weโ€™re out.ย  Riding in theย truckย Iย ย justย relax so much that when they open the door to let me out, Iโ€™mย justย too relaxed to leaveย butย I end up getting out anyway.

Iโ€™ve become so much better at people & dog distractions.ย  We practise so much to help me.ย ย 

Stillย go to class regularlyย andย now Iโ€™m no longer the youngest pupย in class.ย  We have a few little puppies who have joined in.ย ย Still, though, itโ€™s fun to be in class and see all the different pups.ย  Iย justย want to go and play with them, but I canโ€™t because I am there to learn. I love to learn new things because itโ€™s fun & I get treats.
