We're nearly 3 months into one of the most unusual times of our lifetime due to COVID-19. This week, we're reflecting on Markus' time on the road trip that we were fortunate enough to take prior to the travel restrictions and being at home since.

It’s Markus’ 2nd Gotcha Day and we celebrated by having a little party with him and some dog friends. Since Thanksgiving is around the corner, we wanted to take the time to list out some of the things we’re grateful for.

In the early days when we were starting to leave Markus at home alone, the Kong Wobbler played a big role in our training. The Kong Wobbler has allowed us to stimulate Markus mentally and create a distraction for him.

Since the last check-in, it snowed in Vancouver and we got to see Markus play in the snow for the first time! We also started attending our doggy training classes so wanted to provide some of those updates with you. Plus derp.
