We had to say goodbye to Daisy last weekend. Unexpectedly and quite suddenly Daisy became very ill. We had to make the difficult decision to let her go. Difficult because we loved her but the right decision as Daisy is now at peace. We miss her terribly. Daisy came into our lives 3 years ago. … More Daisy Doo
Just before Christmas I learned of Lucy’s sudden and unexpected passing. At 4 years old with razor-sharp intelligence, Olympian fitness and a uplifting presence, this was a terrible, unwelcome surprise to everyone who had the privilege of meeting her or being in her company. Lucy’s people are devastated! Lucy was a beautiful whippet/border collie cross … More Lucy Schneider
I recently received the very unwelcome news that Wrigley had lost the fight he was having with bone cancer… a fight that he and his people didn’t know that they were in until a week or so before he passed. An unfair, sneaky, dirty fight… as always seems to be the case! Wrigley’s people are … More Wrigley
We nearly didn’t meet Angus! We had previously visited Calgary Humane Society and decided to adopt a Chow/Shepherd mix who was going to be called Booch. Prior to Booch being neutered, x-rays revealed some extremely serious hip issues that made him unadoptable at that time! As paperwork had been completed and money had changed hands … More Angus
Last week I received the unwelcome news that Tucker had passed following a sudden, unforeseen medical emergency. The news was even more unexpected as Tucker was an 8 year old pooch in his prime. The blessing is that everything happened very quickly, that his people were with him when he passed, and that Tucker is … More Tucker man

Losing a pooch is never easy… especially if they have been with you from the early days of your business. This week I received the very unwelcome news that Sophie, one of my original Pooch Walkers, had passed very suddenly. I knew Sophie when she was just a whipper-snapper and quickly learned a few things … More Sophie
I received very sad news this week. Lucy, a long-time Poochwalker and one of our bestest girls has passed. News of our pooches passing is never welcome…and this is particularly true of our “Luce” who had faithfully joined me for individual walks, group walks and staycations over the years. Lucy was always pleased to see … More Farewell Lucy…the bestest of girls…
It is with a very heavy heart that I advise of Luther’s sudden passing following an unexpected medical emergency. I have known Luther and his people since he was 16 months old (he was nearly 9 years old when he passed). From the outset Luther was a well-behaved, well-balanced boy…intelligent, friendly (aloof if he felt … More Luther (D B Mann)
Sadly, earlier this week we had to say goodbye to Ryder …..one of the Walks bestest boys and a brave, stoic trooper through thick and thin. Ryder came into his people’s lives less than three years ago and immediately set about dispelling all of the spurious, stereotypical myths that surround being a Pit Bull… doing … More RYDER
