Donora is quiet and cuddly at home when inside, but a bundle of energy when she is outside. Now 11 months old and eager to learn, Donora loves to work and play. This sweet contradiction is a joy to have in my home. Submitted by: Laverne... Read more

Jingle discovered sand this month! We came upon a volleyball court on our walk that was vacant and full of nice sand. Jingle thought it was great and had a nice run around and a very good sniff. She got out with a number of other PADS dogs for a walk and some training... Read more

Is it the end of January already? Time flies! I must be having fun. I was out and about quite a bit this month. I went to work with Jen a lot and just last week got to go to the ICU for the first time. So many interesting machines and noises! I went to the clinic and... Read more

I travelled back from Nova Scotia in January after spending Christmas in Halifax. We stopped in Toronto, and I stressed everyone out by refusing to use the pet relief area. But I made it back to Calgary, accident-free, proving I have a superior bladder. Besides that,... Read more

The new year kicked off with the return to work, and now the human and I have three days in the office instead of two! I don’t mind, though. I love my snoozes on the train during the daily commute, seeing my colleagues, and getting out for sniffy walks at lunch, no... Read more

Patty welcomed in the new year in a cute pink onesie. She spent some time recuperating from her surgery, but was very quickly back to her energetic self, trying to become best friends with people or dogs in the area. She had a lovely sit where she enjoyed running... Read more

Spring II joined our home on January 6, and it has been such a rewarding first month. When we first met her, she was quite shy and preferred to just sit in one place rather than follow a lure, but it only took a couple of days for her to really warm up. She quickly... Read more

Frosty was busy growing and learning in January. Not only is she quickly picking up new skills – like position cues and movement – she has learned that cats can be cuddle buddies and you can use the big dog to see what’s happening on countertops in... Read more

This pupdate technically begins at the end of November when I first met Ponsu when he was only 8 days old, at his breeder/caregiver’s home in North Vancouver. Ponsu’s mom, Birdie, was raised by me, and I was lucky enough to be allowed to visit them. Ponsu was a... Read more

Hi everypawdy! How’s your new year going? Mine has been pawsome so far! Besides my regular training, I’ve been having the best time playing with my buddy Comox. He’s such a great mentor and Zoomie partner! Back in his training days, he used to go to school every day,... Read more

January brought big news. After lots of discussions with my trainers, it has been decided that I will be most happy as a pet! My sensitivities are what make me unsuitable for working life, but also make me so special. To get ready for my transition to my adoptive... Read more

Hey everyone, Skaha here with my January update, reporting in from Kelowna. I kicked off the month with a week-long stay at one of our awesome Okanagan PADS sitter homes; it was basically a doggy vacation resort. They have two former PADS dogs, which means built-in... Read more

This cuddly pup is now 6 months and 37lbs. PADS Elsie is a sweetheart—such a calm, quiet pup (except for the snores and groans during her naps!). She is developing into a lovely dog, learning new skills and working on settling in public places. Elsie waited calmly... Read more

Happy 2026, everyone! The new year has started off good for me! I’m still spending time at hockey arenas and running errands. I even went to the airport this month to pick up the grandpawrents. That was a cool experience. They even let dogs who aren’t in... Read more
