March was a month of new experiences and adventures for Angel. We spent a week on Vancouver Island, where Angel was a wonderful guest at our family’s cottage. She transitioned very well to a new environment and enjoyed exploring Sooke, Victoria, and Nanaimo. She...

Eddie III | March 2026

Shyloh | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Okanagan, Pupdates

Shyloh spent lots of time outdoors this month, as she had her 2nd heat and wasn’t able to be out in cape. We had lots of hikes and quietly observed birds, deer and marmots. We also worked on outdoor durations. She’s looking forward to getting back to work and...

Chester II | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Hello Village! My human was preoccupied with some very important school stuff, which meant a low-key month for me. There were lots of settling and the same routines. This meant I was practicing all my new cues like “go-in,” car procedures, and finally, after much...

Elsie | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

March was a busy month; we travelled to Tofino and Uclulet with some friends. I had a wonderful time on the beaches and exploring rainforest trails. I attended our PADS Canine Campus Gala with my sitter Annika, and was the centre of attention; everyone wanted to take...

Honey IV | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Okanagan, Pupdates

Things have been pretty routine around here lately. I go to all kinds of stores, both big and small. I know just what is expected of me now, and I am happy to comply, especially with the occasional kibble reward for good behaviour. I get a lot of compliments from...

Sturko | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Okanagan, Pupdates

March was a fun month with some wacky weather. We had several days of bright sunshine interspersed with pouring rain and even some late snow. My raiser is glad that I’m not bothered by much because every time we walked out the door was a surprise. I’m...

Goose II | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Okanagan, Pupdates

Goose has had a very busy March. He had a professional grooming so he would be at his most handsome and smelling great for his first plane ride to Calgary. He was great on the airplane, and WestJet accommodated us perfectly. They provided us with extra leg room...

Elora | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Elora had a fun March. She went birdwatching and did well. She went on some fun walks/playdates with other dogs and did her public access test. She has been learning to stand when asked. Submitted by: Tricia Korner Bonus Pupdate: Elora has matured since I last sat...

Daisy III | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Daisy continues to be an enthusiastic learner. Most of the time, her entire body “wags” when anything is going on— training, meeting someone, waiting for treats. She loves to sit VERY CLOSE when not following “bed” instructions. She joined me on our 60th wedding...

Spirit IV | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Most of March was spent at a babysitter’s, so that was a real learning experience for Spirit. When I picked him up, he had grown so much that I hardly recognized him. He was a big boy now. As a treat, he was able to enjoy a romp at the beach, was introduced...

Jingle II | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Jingle has had a very social month with a number of visits with other PADS dogs. She had a great romp with PADS Zuko at a dog park where we had arranged to meet up. Then afterwards, it was rest time! Not long after this, we had another snowfall, and Jingle had a blast...

Skaha III | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Okanagan, Pupdates

Hi friends! It’s me, Skaha — your favourite yellow Labrador from Kelowna, proudly named after one of the prettiest parks in the Okanagan. March was busy…the good kind of busy filled with adventures, training and lots of snuggles. Sit! and I’ll tell you all about it....

Hope III | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Hi, everybody! Hope, here, and boy did I have a fun month! I’ve been to different malls, by myself and with some other PADS pups, and I even got to pick out some toys at one of the stores! I’ve also had some adventure walks outside where I’ve seen lots of other dogs,...

Gaffer | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Okanagan, Pupdates

Another great month for Gaffer. He continues to advance. His pop-up from a sit and a down, etc., is great. Working on cues from a distance. He still moves ahead a few inches each time, but it is getting really close. Next month, we’ll see if he will stay in...

Frosty II | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Calgary, Pupdates

We’ve learned that Frosty quite likes mud, and she doesn’t mind baths. She may be a bit of a water dog. Frosty went to a couple of medical appointments this month, and it was a bit of a challenge for her to not try to ‘help’ the professionals...

Buddy II | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Advanced Dogs, Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Buddy is doing fantastic and continues to make great progress. He went on a field trip to Harbour Air with his trainer and even got to board one of their seaplanes. The experience was exciting and full of new sights for him. It was a memorable day that he truly...

Blue IV | March 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Blue continues to mature and learn new cues. She is a willing learner and picks things up quickly. This month, we added ‘back’, ‘go in’ and ‘roll’. We have focused on the pedicure portion of grooming & kenneling durations. We...
