Tide | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Okanagan, Pupdates

Bonnie II | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Bonnie continues to pick up new skills quickly and has been showing lots of confidence on some big hikes we have done this past month. As much as she is getting big fast, there are still some moments on hikes she needs a lift (see photo). Bonnie has also become a...

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Hi everypawty! My sister Bryn stayed with us a little longer this month—yay! My hoomans say she’s like a mini-me. Can you see the resemblance? We both have that extra wiggle and sparkle in our eyes! After she left (miss you, small sis!), I had a bit of the puppy...

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Hi everyone! November began with a vacation to Howl (Powell) River. It was my second time voyaging there, and I was very excited to return to my human friends and their house. To get to Howl River, I rode on 2 ferries. Last time, it was very hot and sunny, whereas...

Hello everyone! I’m Chorcha. I’m currently just over 3 months old. I’ve been through a lot so far in my little life. I lived with a puppy sitter in Vancouver for a while after I left my momma and wonderful breeder caretakers, and then I flew to Calgary with my new...

Marni | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Calgary, Pupdates

Hello Pupsters! This month I had to do some tests, and I think I did ok. Now we wait to see if I continue to be the great service pup that I know I can be. I also got to go and do some training on a plane, it was fun, and I had experience from my trip in August. I got...

Daisy III | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Daisy is a pleasure to train. She enjoys any outings and becomes animated when she knows we are going out. Whenever I sit for a while, she is curled up at/on my feet. She loves being with her other buddies in training. We have been working on barking when someone...

Blue IV | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Blue is a sweet girl who, at 18 weeks, arrived at our home full of anxiety from a journey fraught with some challenges. A short-term sitter, through early Nov, worked diligently with her to help her master knowing her name & relearning Better Go. A second...

Kiyoko | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Okanagan, Pupdates

Kiyoko turned 14 months in November and has grown into quite a calm, well-behaved pup that can be trusted wherever she goes. She has excellent house manners, walks well on leash, and her recall is always spot-on. She has some dog friends that we walk with regularly,...

Milos | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Okanagan, Pupdates

Boy, I had fun in November! There was a lot of action. Michelle and I went to see Kelowna Ballet. I was very quiet and even watched the exceptional dancers during a thunderstorm on stage. It took me a while to settle, but I did it! Later, we did a road trip to...

Mozza | November 2025

Imani | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Imani was a joy to have a sleepover with! He is a little cuddle buddy who loves to watch the world go by. We played with toys, ate food and treats, and slept! He only woke up once through the night and did all his business outside. He did inhale his dinner quite...

Saphira | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Saphira is a great pup and is doing well with all her training. She struggles sometimes with her duration, so we are working on that. But she did very well at a luncheon in a ballroom at the Waterfront Hotel, walked through the buffet with her human, no problems, and...

Dot II | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

It started to feel like Fall with the leaves changing colour and the fireplace on most days… both of which Dot has enjoyed. This month, we participated in a number of group outings, where Dot engaged and played with older PADS dogs. This is good learning for...

Allen | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

Hi, everybody! This month, I got to go to work with one of my moms. I was a very good boy, she said. I had a fuzzy blanket to lie on, and I just cooled my heels for a couple of hours (do dogs have heels? Hmmmmm). Anyway, we took the Skytrain downtown, which is always...

Gem II | November 2025

Monday, December 1, 2025 | Lower Mainland, Pupdates

November was a month of adventures and growing confidence. I met a cat, a very friendly cat, on a walk, and practiced meeting it calmly – well, maybe not that calmly, as it ended up hissing at me. I tagged along with one of my raisers for a day of a bunch of...
