Whoa, where has March gone?? It has been a bit of a quiet one for me this month as I went into my first heat at the end of February, which put a dampener on some of the fun, but it was a good rest month! My raiser went on holiday, so I got to spend nearly 2 weeks with... Read more

March was a good month in Toffeeland. I was really disappointed that I couldn’t go to the Invictus Games with Barb – I went into heat the day they started, so that kind of put the kibosh on that plan. BUT ……. I got to go to a Whitecaps game instead, and that was... Read more

Hey everyone! Smaug is now 7.5 months old, and I swear he’s made of pure legs and attitude. I blinked, and the tiny puppy turned into a lanky teenager who somehow manages to still think he’s a small pup during cuddles. We’ve definitely hit the “adolescent... Read more
