“Today marks one year since we brought home the artist formerly known as Peach (Beau). Now known as Billy!
It's hard to imagine that for the first few days, Billy didn't want to leave his crate. These days, the moment we put the key in the door, he's waiting for us, his whole body wiggling, ready for kisses and cuddles. Billy has done an amazing job of coming out of his shell this year, and has made many friends, of both the four-legged and two-legged variety. His favourite people include his grandmother, his dog friends Yogi, Poppy, and Joe, and his dad, Christian, MUCH TO MY DISPLEASURE. He does love his mama as well, but Dad is #1.
Billy absolutely aced his training and is ready to go on to intermediate level in the spring. He's traveled to cottages and campsites and is a road trip superstar. He enjoys chilling on the roof with us while we BBQ, having a lazy day in the park, or going for a big hike where there's lots of things to sniff. We worked hard at his walking skills and he's now confident on the leash, trotting along with his tail wagging. He even met one of his sisters, who literally lives around the corner from us. Amazing to think that they both came all the way from the same litter in Mexico just to casually bump into each other in the same dog park in Toronto. Every time they are reunited, antics ensue.
