Hello Everyone, March was another busy month for me! I spent some time at the hockey arena, as usual. But I have been told that I will be watching a new sport soon and it’s outside! My family went away for a week so I spent some time with a sitter. That was fun... Read more

Captain had a relaxing month. Not much was happening! The horrible weather is so restricting—lots of mall and indoor visits. The photos I chose this month are Captain Mimicking Goldilocks (LOL) and one from when he was just a little pup at 8 weeks old! Submitted... Read more

I’ve had a very eventful month. I’ve spent time in meetings and classes at the University of Calgary. The students love me, and it’s been hard for me to learn that I am not there to socialize with them (and they have tried really hard not to make too much fuss about... Read more

Tay is doing great. She woke up at 6:30 am, will do her potty with the command, “Better Go Now”, and then she has her breakfast. Depending on the day, Tay would go with me to send the kids to school. Back home, while I prepped for my work day, she would be... Read more

Pyxis has grown taller and filled out so much these past few months! Everyone has been commenting on how much bigger he looks all of a sudden. He is still like a little puppy when he goes to the off-leash park! He wants to play with every dog there and will persist... Read more

I was so excited to hear that my raiser got a job and that I’d be going to work lots….but apparently, for me, that means lots of sleeping on the floor without my trusty dog bed. I got that skill down pretty good, along with riding in elevators and doing... Read more

Bagel has been working hard this month. I have noticed she has begun to overindulge in seeking attention from those around her, so we have had to work on showing restraint. She has touched the hearts of everyone in the office and when she works from home with my... Read more

Mom loves taking me to grocery stores, shopping malls, etc., as my loose leash walking is so good indoors. I do walk well around the neighbourhood, but when I am walking along the dyke where there are a lot of dogs walking & running around me, I am more distracted... Read more

Cashew has been practicing pulling skills this past month. It’s still too early to tell, but we are hopeful that he will enjoy this type of work as he is strong enough and gentle enough to be a pulling dog and help someone in a manual chair. Skills being... Read more

Alma had a great month with the new experience of attending a Vancouver Warriors lacrosse game. She was great at walking through all the crowds and liked the guys sitting in front of her, maybe giving them a few licks for good measure. She did not like the big... Read more
