This month, Iโ€™ve been settling into my new home at UBC, which officially makes me a UBC Campus Canine! Iโ€™ve got a doggie housemate, PADS release dog Marvel, who is keeping me company and Iโ€™ve also met the other Campus Canine dogs at my weekly class. Part of my new routine is to go to orchestra practice once a week, which can be very loud at times, but I aced it! I have a special UBC sitter now โ€“ a student who wanted to raise me but was only able to keep me for a short while, as we ran into an issue that couldnโ€™t be solved. I still really like to see him!

My new raiser is impressed with how well I can walk nicely on my leash (but we will still do lots of practice with this) and we are also working on daytime kenneling. Iโ€™m going back to my first raiser for 12 days so it will be nice to see my old family again! After this, Iโ€™ll be settling into my UBC home for good.
