A little about me…

by Pups on February 17, 2011

Hi everyone: WOOF WOOF

I want to welcome all of my new pals and wanted to share with you what my pawsome story is all about. WOOF.

A little over 4 years ago I started an amazing journey around the world.

The journey started when my mom, Paula J. Kidney adopted me from a boutique in Michigan.  I am not your ordinary Labrador, I am an adorable little stuffed Labbie.   On one of the Low carb groups that my mom, Paula belongs to she asked if anyone would be interested in having me come to visit them.  From there the adventures of Pups the Traveling Labrador began. My list started growing and growing and soon I had a huge waiting list of places to visit.

I travel in style, with a suitcase full of clothes and mementos from my journeys.  I have a variety of outfits since I never knows when I will be in someplace cold like Russia or be hanging out on a sunny beach in Barbados.

My travels are extensive with trips to over 15 countries and more than 12 States.  I have been to England, Scotland, Germany, Ireland, Japan, Sweden, Russia, China, Jamaica, and Barbados just to name a few countries as well as to Texas, New York, California, Florida just to name a few of the many states I visited.

At each stop my host family shows me around, taking pictures of me and sending in stories of my adventures.

Besides going to new places, I like to help promote great causes, such as Dogs for the Deaf, various animal rescue groups and many other charities.  I even even received my Canine Good Citizen Certificate from the AKC.

I have been featured in various magazines, including, Fido Friendly Magazine, Pet Friendly Magazine, and many others.

I was even on the news when I visited Dogs for the Deaf in Oregon where I also trained with Devo, The Black Labrador Autism Assistance dog.

This is Devo a Black Labrador Autism Assistance Dog.  We trained together!

Ireland was so gorgeous!

When I visited Scotland I attended Gun Dog training classes and received my own certificate of passing with flying colors.

I have been to tons of Labrador Birthday parties too!

My family includes my Mom Paula, Dad Gregg and Brother Garth Milo (a Black Labrador) who is my true inspiration for deciding to travel the globe and share my travels with you.

Currently, I am in the process of obtaining a publisher for a children’s book series.  My agent is pawsome!

If you would like me to visit you, you can contact my travel agent through this website or on my facebook page.

Cheers,

Pups the Traveling Labrador

Hi! Just surfed in from SITS. It’s very cool that you’re travelling around the world. I’ll have to get your book when it comes out. :)

BTW, Taz the hearing dog in training says hi.

22 Karen Averill February 19, 2011 at 3:46 pm

Pups, you definitely are pawsome! Wish I had known you before you came to Oregon. My pup, Ozzie, is a career change dog from Dogs for the Deaf and he and his other rescue buddy, Taz, would have loved to meet you. We travel a bunch so we’ll send an invite thru your travel agent.

23 Stephanie Faris February 19, 2011 at 4:36 pm

Happy SITS day!

Wow, he is such a cute, unique little guy! What a great idea. I hope the deal for children’s books works out. That would be so “pawsome!” ;-) I have a special affinity for labs myself. Especially black labs. I had a black lab named Luke who died a couple years ago. He was such a good dog. Be safe in you future travels, Pups!

40 Amanda February 20, 2011 at 7:26 pm

Happy belated SITS day. I’m sorry I missed your big day!

43 Sunday February 22, 2011 at 5:42 am

I would LOVE it if Pups came to visit our family in Maryland!
I have 2 young boys who have autism and we’d love it if Pups would help us promote autism awareness and acceptance!

Plus, we have a very large black labradoodle named Ernie and I know Pups and he would get along great!

44 Mimi@Irresistible Pets February 22, 2011 at 10:05 am

What a great blog! I found you on SITS! I was so excited that they featured another pet blogger! I am now a subsriber and can’t wait for more posts!

My Chihuahua Chuy would love Pups!

Congrats on your SITS day, PUPS, you’re just adorable and I know your mom and family are very proud of you. I’d love to have you come visit, Molly, Dobe Girl and Little Bear one day on our trip to Alaska. Have a great day!!
