De-stressing students at Douglas College

Hi everybody…itโ€™s me again.ย  April is National Volunteer Week so I thought Iโ€™d introduce you to myย  people.ย  My raiser, Doug, has been with PADS for about two and a half years and raised one dog before me.ย  His name is Verdot and he chose to live a life of leisure so we get to visit each other all the time…heโ€™s my โ€œbig broโ€!ย  And Iโ€™ve adopted Georganne and Anne, Verdotโ€™s people, as part of my extended family.ย  Dad and Georganne host the PADS Volunteer Information Sessions once a month and I get to go with them to meet all the new PADS people.ย  And thereโ€™s Uncle Rick who got Dad interested in PADS to begin with.ย  He gives me lots of pets and love when we see each other but ย I donโ€™t get to visit himย too often cuz he lives far, far away in a place called Port Moody.

My buddy, Noosa

And even though sheโ€™s not โ€œpeopleโ€, I have to say Noosa is family too.ย  Sheโ€™s a beautiful Golden Retriever and Dad brings her over to play with me a few times a week so sheโ€™s like a sister to me.

I really love my people and they love me…itโ€™s what Dad calls a โ€œwin/win situationโ€!
