Lyriq | May 2025

Hi friends, it’s me, Lyriq, back with my May update!

This month has felt like full-on summer—so much sunshine and even more time outside on the farm with my humans. We’ve been working on my settling skills in all kinds of different spaces and environments. Whether it’s the garden, the barn, or the shady spot under a tree, I’m learning that calm can happen anywhere!

Big news: we got chickens! And guess what? I’m so good with them. I never chase or bark—I’m calm, gentle, and respectful. My humans say I’m a real farm pro now.

Another exciting thing happened—my human volunteered to fly a little puppy from the Whitecaps litter to Calgary to meet their new raisers. I got to spend the day with the puppy, and it was so fun. I even adjusted my play style to be extra gentle so the little one felt safe. We ended the day sharing my kennel for a cozy nap—I didn’t mind at all.

I’m getting closer to advanced training, so we’re still practicing all the important stuff—calmness, focus, and being the best version of myself. I’m pretty proud of the girl I’m becoming.

Thanks for following along!
