I'm always on the look out for a good story.

We just returned from the second leg of our PAWS Across Canada Tour  and what fun we had!

The last part of our tour was in Manitoba, Canada. While there we had a great stay in Winnipeg sponsored by the Mere Hotel.

What an awesome hotel!

Pet Friendly Plus!



The Mere Hotel has great customer service.  We arrived on HOWLoween, so I was dressed up as Toby the Super Dog and look at the great Mere Hotel Team!

Students Help Dog Reach a Million Acts of Kindness

It's Me!
Toby!


There's just so much to write about.

Between playing fetch.  Sleeping.  Playing with Toys.  Sleeping.  Cuddles with my humans.... I see a lot of good stuff going on in the world.


Mom, dad and I were in Lloydminster for our Paws Across Canada tour,  We presented to a group of PAWmazing students at Barr Colony School.  These students showed so much respect, kindness, and acceptance to us.  And gave me a huge "HI TOBY!" welcome.

After the presentation, we met with five students to talk about what kindness is.  Their answers were great.  The students said kindness is: helping someone if they hurt themselves, telling your mom she has a nice shirt, hugging your pet, feeding your dog, helping clean the school, saying nice things to people.



NewCap TV came and filmed us and the wisdom from these students, you can watch the episode here:




Kindness in our view is about kindness to people, pets, and the planet.

The students raised their hands to join me on our kindness mission by doing one act of kindness.

we invite you to do the same.

One (or more) act of On Purpose/Intentional Kindness in the next 24 hours.

Together we can make a difference!

Please share our blogs, and follow our social media.  Change begins with a conversation!

Dog Gives Award to Pet Friendly Hotel

Toby the dog here, a dog with a blog!


And do I have lots to write about.

We are on our PAWS Across Canada Tour building a kinder Canada one paw one person at a time.

This leg of the tour is through Saskatchewan and Manitoba.


This leg of the tour started off at Microtel Inn & Suites. They generously hosted our stay in Lloydminster.  We LUVED them so much we gave them the Toby Tested Toby Approved award.






Here's 4 PAWS Up reasons that we loved this hotel so much:

1) Pet friendly rooms are on main floor with easy access to outside doors.
2) The pet friendly rooms are so quiet... nothing woke me up!
3) There was lots of grassy areas (super well lit) for mom and dad to walk me around.
4)  There were garbage cans 

The bonus was the pawmazing customer service!  I was treated like a movie star... and I saw them treat everyone with that same welcoming approach.  






Next time you are traveling through Lloydminster, make sure Microtel is your hotel for pet friendly stays.

Help us spread the word about PAWS Across Canada tour, and the amazing businesses that are supporting our kindness mission.  Follow our pages. Like our pages.  Comments on our posts. 



Thank you so much to our PAWSome PAWS Across Canada partners!  You have helped us spread kindness in a much bigger way!

PAWS Across Canada Comes to Lloydminster Oct 20

A dog with a blog....

That's me!

I luv shopping for PAWducts that we luv!


This was me during our first leg of PAWs Across Canada...building a kinder Canada one paw one person at a time.   I was trying to do the shopping cart dance at Petland, they were one of our amazing partners on the tour!

On Oct 20 we leave for the 2nd leg of the tour... to Saskatchewan and Manitoba!
 
I'll be filling up my Outward Hound back pack with toys and other stuff we need for the tour.  I luv to have a job!

Our partners, The Original Poop Bags, our number two sponsor (LOL.... get it?  Number 2!!) will be traveling with us everywhere!

  Mom will be making sure she packs to of my fave toys... the Kong

Last time dad threw one and it got stuck in a tree, and mom has a girly throw and we often lose them.   So we'll bring some extra.


I'll be filming the whole tour with my very own Go Pro Video Camera.

You know...

Life through Toby's eyes.

Our first stop will be Lloydminster.  We'll be staying at Microtel Inn & Suites.

They are pet friendly!

There are several businesses so far that are supporting our Twoonie for Team Toby Fundraiser:  They'll be selling cut out pawprints for $2 which raises funds for Coca's Promise (a rescue in Lloydminster), and, Team Toby classroom programs, and a presentation from me.  We luv partnering with businesses to promote kindness, acceptance and respect.

Thank you to:

Puppy Luv Doggy Day Spa, Pet Planet, and, the Lloydminster Animal Hospital for jumping on board to help!  We'd love to have other businesses supporting the cause (and you don't have to be a pet business).

Mom's got the Doggie Doo All ready to go as well.  We luv this product.  No more messy cleanups!


We are looking forward to our school presentations while in Lloydminster and doing some fun pet friendly adventures.

See you October 20 in Lloydminster.

Remember to follow us on social media to get our live as it happens, blogs, photos, videos and radio shows.






Thank you to all our sponsors and partners!  We appreciate you.

One Dog's Mission to Spread Kindness

It's Me!

Toby the dog.


A dog with a blog on a mission to make the world a kinder place.

In May and June we did PAWS Across Canada Tour, leg #1.... Alberta and BC, Canada.  Here were a few of the many pawsome successes.



We visited schools and workplaces sharing the message of kindness, acceptance and respect, and, responsible loving pet care.  We did way cool pet friendly adventures, and, had amazing partners on the tour.

It's Bully Prevention Month and we head out on PAWS Across Canada Tour #2.... Saskatchewan and Manitoba Canada.



Please help us visit more schools with our BARK (TM) Program.


For less than a cup of coffee... for only $2 you can help us share our message in schools.  It's our Twoonie for Team Toby campaign.  



Buy a $2 Pawprint and support our efforts to reduce bullying through teaching kindness, acceptance and respect.  


Purchase your pawprint here to support kindness to people, pets and the planet!
