2026,2023,2022
I wasn’t going to post this because there’s a huge sense of embarrassment surrounding the ‘23 and ‘22 years. ‘22 being right as Chance was graduating from SDIT to SD… before that white rabbit got us.
But I think for a sense of accountability it’s really important that I post it. Chance was fat. I’m not gonna sugar coat it- cause at the time, he would’ve ate that too. And he was at what I- and his Vets considered ideal weight.
You can learn so much in 3 years. And as I continued to shadow other professionals and did my own research and furthered my career- I understood something really simple: my dog is overweight.
Chance is the main reason I decided to become a Certified Professional Canine Nutritionist. Because after 5 years of life- my dog actually looks YOUNGER. (Except the last pic omg that puppy face)
Looking at these all side by side is a reminder that at any age and point in your dogs life you can start to make better decisions for their health and wellbeing, and sometimes you really need to take a step back.. and 👀see it.

2026 NADD NorthCentral Regionals

oh my gosh, where do I start.
we had an AMAZING time, this one is memorable for sure.

Storm competed in all 3 disciplines for the first time at regionals and here’s her placements.

Distance - 28th place Junior (11’0)
Hydro Dash - 16th place Junior (19.506)
Air Retrieve - 2nd Place Novice (8’0)
H.AR.D Charger - 12th Place Topaz

I’m so BEYOND proud of my girl and her accomplishments this season. Starting air retrieve and being capable of doing it after such an eventful weekend at a chaotic environment was amazing.

she’s been jumping shorter in distance, but that’s okay i’m sure part of it is from air retrieve. Her confidence has been amazing however and she’s having fun, thats all that matters!

it was great seeing some of our friends and making new ones!! really enjoyed meeting and cheering on @purposeful.paws, their pups are INSANE! 👏🏼

One of the most common comments I received on our last post was about Triton’s paws on hot pavement, & I completely understand why 💜

As a guide dog, Triton’s safety is always my top priority. From protective boots & a cooling coat to frequent water & AC breaks, every outing is planned with his wellbeing in mind. I also constantly check the pavement myself because if it’s too hot for my hand, it’s too hot for his paws.

I truly appreciate everyone who asked because it gave me the chance to talk about an important topic. Responsible service dog handling isn’t just about the work they do. It’s about making sure they’re safe, comfortable & cared for every step of the way.

Triton spends every day looking out for me. Looking out for him is the leash I can do. 💜

💨 Lindiwe doing what she loves most… RUNNING! 💨

A couple weeks ago, Lindiwe got to stretch those legs at the Tacoma Kennel Club Fast CAT event held at Serendipity Dog Events, and she had an absolute blast! There is nothing quite like watching her lock onto the lure, dig in, and give it everything she has from start to finish.

These photos perfectly capture her drive, determination, and pure joy. This is exactly why I love Fast CAT—it’s such a fun way for dogs to do what they were born to do.

A huge thank you to @journeybypaws for capturing these incredible action shots! Your timing and talent behind the camera are amazing, and these photos are ones I’ll treasure for a long time. 📸💗

And a special thank you to our friend @dadanedigz for being at the finish line to catch this crazy girl after every run! It definitely takes teamwork, and we appreciate you helping make sure Lindiwe finishes each run safely. 🐾💜

Way to go, Lindiwe! Every run is another opportunity to do what you love, and I couldn’t be prouder of you. 💨💘💜

Superhero Calliope to the rescue 🐕✨

Calliope did so well for her first trial day back since her psoas injury. I originally told myself that we would put sports on a pause this year. But Calliope has shown that she is ready to try dock diving again.

As soon as we crossed over the bridge, she knew exactly where we were headed. She fell right back into the groove of things and was jumping in the Junior division like nothing. We were on top of our warm-ups and cool-downs during each splash and I even brought along our PEMF mat to use as needed and during the drive.

We will be playing this sport year by ear as to not over do it. Crossing our fingers we’ll be back soon!

Dock diving part Dos ✌🏻

I will say, most of our dock diving weekends consist of spending majority of the day at the dock, but we only had time for 1 jump so we made the best of it ✨

Of course, Triton was amped so we started with some practice jumps at the smaller dock. However, that didn’t deter Triton from putting it into Turbo in his qualifying jump as he ended up launching early, knocking my husband over, & jumping only 15 feet (as I had to throw the bumper last minute). He did make up for it in his second jump with a 23 ft 10 in jump ✨

HUGE thank you to @dadanedigz for the gorgeous custom collar ✨ we absolutely love it 🫶🏻

Let me know if you want to see more ✨

I made the call to leave Quinn home this morning. I felt it the whole day.

I woke up not feeling well and already running late, and getting her ready on top of myself would have made it so much worse. So I left her. Which is not something I do often.

Got home from work and before anything else we did a quick pool cooldown for the dogs. Sick or not, they still needed that. Then it was time to go to the doctor and I was not feeling well enough to drive so we walked. And before anyone asks, yes I brought my service dog to an appointment when I was already sick and not at my best. Because doctors make me anxious, and anxiety is one of my biggest triggers for my fainting disorder. Quinn monitors me, keeps me regulated, and alerts if something is coming. Sick or not, that is just how we move.

Turns out it is just a cold. We are both in bed waiting on my prescription and neither of us is mad about it.

Tell me I am not the only one who still took care of everyone else before taking care of themselves.
