May was a big month for Tattor! She took her very first flightโacross beautiful British Columbia and into good olโ Calgary, Albertaโto meet her puppy raisers and extended family. Sheโs now settling into a home with four children, which means thereโs never a dull moment and always plenty to keep her busy and entertained.
Thanks to the incredible start she received in her amazing breeder-caregiver home, Tattor has adjusted beautifully to her new surroundings. That strong foundation has made her first month with us a smooth and joyful transitionโweโre so grateful for the early love and care that PADS puppies receive!
Tattor picked up her nighttime routine quickly and now sleeps through the night like a pro. She’s still in full-on teething mode and will happily sample anything within reach, but the family has quickly learned that playtime always needs to involve a good chew toyโsaving lots of fingers and toes in the process!
As we lay the foundations of her training, Tattor has already learned the verbal cue for โsitโ and is working on moving confidently between sit, stand, and down. Weโre also introducing โbed,โ which sheโs quickly associating with great things (treats!).
While her flight to Alberta was definitely her biggest adventure so far (thanks to some amazing volunteer escorts!), Tattor has already enjoyed a few local outings. Sheโs visited the libraryโmuch to the delight of the staffโand has become a regular observer at track and field practices. She even had her first day at โworkโ at her raiserโs school and did wonderfully! With her growing mastery of โItโs Your Choice,โ meeting new people has been a positive and manageable experience.
Thatโs all for nowโsee you next month!
