Hikes and bikes

Whiskey is 4.5 months old now and we are increasing the length of our hikes a little.  We tried Eagle Bluffs which is 8kms with a 350m incline.  It has a beautiful scenic viewpoint of the whole city and is a great place to bring friends…

A very busy day

A very busy day

This week I’m off work, and I’m really looking forward to relaxing at home with the pets.  Since we don’t own a car, we decided to rent from a car share a couple times this week to get out of the city. Today we tried…

Hunting/Field Vs Comfirmation/Show Vizsla

Yesterday we met up with a fellow Vizsla owner Eric, and his 1.5 year Vizsla Yoffi for a romp in some fields.  We  drove 45 mins to arrive at this huge field in Maple Ridge where Yoffi normally runs and trains with birds.  We didn’t…

Puppy stung by wasp

Puppy stung by wasp

My little Vizsla just got stung by a wasp at the park.  I think it was karma for stealing someone’s last slice of salami just minutes ago.  Missing the drama, I was working when she was out for a walk in the park and just…

We’ve just finished our group of puppy classes at Oh My Dog.  I’m proud to say Whiskey’s improved so much over the 4 classes and was really getting the “heel, sit, stay, come here” we were working on.  ‘Heeling’ to ‘sit’ was the hardest for…

Sniff training

Camping with a puppy

Camping with a puppy

Boy oh boy!  At first I wasn’t so sure about camping but I knew that if it worked out, Whiskey would be the happiest little Vizsla.  We had a couple hurdles to overcome but leapt over each and everyone of them: So we were supposed…

Whiskey the little celebrity

Whiskey the little celebrity

We are famous!!  On a hike to Deep Cove a couple weeks ago we met a nice man who took a couple shots of Whiskey as she was romping around.  We finally made it on his website 🙂 Post by The Dogist.

Whiskey comes home

Whiskey comes home

It was sooooo hard to get through the day today.  My partner flew in with Whiskey on a 4.5 hour flight from Montreal.  The battery on his phone failed and the connection was too spotty for a phone call at the breeder’s so I was just staring at the…

Getting ready

Getting ready

Oh man!!!  We are so excited!!!  You can tell by the amount of exclamation marks 🙂  So we’ve done a bunch of research over at least a year and have settled on a breed (Vizsla, obviously), breeder, and we await our first puppy together.  My partner has had dogs…
