Tide | December 2025

Thursday, January 1, 2026 | Okanagan, Pupdates

I enjoyed meeting Santa, experiencing snow, but didn’t love having to wear panties after going into heat! I’m working hard on the bumpy, grated staircases. I’m pretty good on any kind of surface, but these stairs don’t feel nice on my paws, and they make me nervous....

Bowie II | December 2025

Thursday, January 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

December was stressful for both Bowie and me, but we overcame it and had a relaxing break. It started with finals for both Bowie and me (he helped me very much during these finals…by sleeping through them), and after that, we relaxed for practically all of December....

Casey | December 2025

Thursday, January 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Hello World! This is my first ever pupdate! I left my mum and siblings at the end of last month and met my new co-raisers. I get to have the fun of living in 2 homes. We had a very quiet first couple of weeks getting into the routine. I spent 5 nights with raiser S...

Bromley | December 2025

Thursday, January 1, 2026 | Calgary, Pupdates

I had a very epic December, travelling to Nova Scotia for the Christmas holiday. I got to spend my time with two doggo friends, Mabou and Teddy. I ran on the beach and was a good boy on the airplane. I have gotten better at recall when off-leash, but am working on not...

Bentley II | December 2025

Thursday, January 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

At the beginning of December, we went to the PADS Christmas party. There were so many puppies to play with, and Gail didn’t let me near any of them. And she made me wear funny ears. In the middle of December, I went to stay with Cathy while Gail went away for...

Sparx | December 2025

Thursday, January 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

December brought a small change of pace for me, as I went into heat right at the start of the month. It meant a slight disruption to our usual plans and left me a bit sleepier than normal, but with some extra rest and care, I took it all in stride. Despite that, I...

Digger | December 2025

Thursday, January 1, 2026 | Advanced Dogs, Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Hello all. Digger here. Had a good month chilling with a couple of families on the North Shore. I learned that barking doesn’t get me anything, so I tried mumbling and grumbling. Not a lot of success with that either. I have been walking some trails, checking...

Belle IV | December 2025

Stetson II | December 2025

Thursday, January 1, 2026 | Calgary, Pupdates

Hi, I’m Stetson! I met my new raisers on December 2, 2025, on a snowy afternoon in Calgary. They were at the airport to greet me, and when I stepped outside the terminal, the soft, white snow fell on my face for the first time. I loved it, and when I got to my new...

Casper | December 2025

Thursday, January 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Hi friends! I have had an awesome December! It started not so awesome with the final exam season. I had to settle or play quietly in study rooms for soooooo many hours every day while my human prepped for her finals. It got super boring, but I tried my best to lift...

Bubba II | December 2025

Thursday, January 1, 2026 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

I was a busy, busy puppy in December! I started the month doing a photoshoot collab (because I’m the cutest ever) with UBC’s volleyball teams! I wore a very comfy sweater and even borrowed a bow tie so I looked my very best. Then I had not one but two trips to the...
