Scully is currently with her adult raiser. She has started University and goes to NSD for training 5 days a week. When not at NSD, she learns how to settle, cuddle and continue to be a welcomed member of the community. This training will help prepare her to be matched with her client.
All of the training and care provided to each dog would not be possible without the support of generous volunteers and donors.

Scully is a sweet puppy who loves walks and play in nature. She is working on her meet and greets, especially with some men. She walks really well with her halti, but is still learning to like it.

Scully is doing great! She has been with us for 1 week now and is settling in wonderfully.
We are currently working on her mat skills and door manners. For example, laying on her mat when we eat and make food, or when a visitor comes to the door. We are also fine-tuning her walking skills so that she is comfortable walking past other pups in the neighbourhood.
We look forward to watching her grow and progress in her training!

Scully just turned 1 year old and is growing up so fast! She is now able to calmly walk past bunnies, squirrels and other dogs and is also working on walking without her gentle leader. She is still learning her door manners but knows to go right to her mat when the doorbell rings. She loves going on hikes in the forest, greeting us every morning with ALL of her stuffies and giving us lots of kisses.
March 2022
Scully is learning new skills all the time such as chin, step and touch. She really loves learning! Scully also goes to work with her raiser every day, which gives her an opportunity to meet new people and learn how to focus when distracted in a stimulating environment. We are excited to see what the future holds for Scully. She really is a sweet, smart and happy pup!
Training Update
Scully has been accepted into NSD University as part of our 2022 Fall class!
May 2022
Scully will be starting NSD University in June and we are so proud of her! She continually works on mastering her basic skills and house manners, but she also loves to learn new skills. She is incredibly gentle when greeted, especially with small children, and is amazing when out in jacket. Scully loves to sunbathe, go on nature walks and adventures on public transit, play hide-and-seek and get cuddles whenever she can. She truly is a smart dog full of love and spirit. We cannot wait to see how she does during the next phase of her training.
