About Jimmy
Hey guys! I'm Jimmy, the cutest labradoodle in all of P.V.S.P. My handlers tell me I'm directly related to someone named "Chewbacca." I don't know who that is...

December 2021 Update
Hi everyone! It’s your favorite fluffy boy, Jimmy! Yes, I am still here, but my brother Parker left. I miss him, but I am happy that he got to go to a nice place. I will be leaving soon as well. I will miss my friends here, but it's time for me to go be with a recipient. We just got new puppies so that will keep the guys busy while we older dogs graduate and move on!
The new puppies are brothers just like Parker and me, but they look nothing alike. Their names are Henry and Spirit and they’re so funny! When we play, I can outrun them and that’s fun for me. Well, I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving. I am thankful for all of you and grateful for all that you do to make our program possible. Thank you and I hope everyone has a great December holiday!

Hi everyone! This is Jimmy again, your favorite fluffy boy! It has been a great month here at PVSP. Not only did I turn 2, but I have also been learning so much. I am really catching on quickly to all the new skills the educators have been showing us. Don't tell them that I said so, but I am even getting better than my brothers. Mostly because I can apply them to different situations, different people, and with distractions too. And all of the new stuff I have been learning I have also taught to my teammates too, it has been great.
It has been cooling off here, so that has been really nice. Though the air has been really smokey. I don't know where you live, but I hope wherever you guys are that you are all safe. I am really appreciative of all of our selfless, hardworking firefighters out there. Maybe I will even get to go live with one when I am done here. They are so brave, always running into danger just to save those who can not do it for themselves. They certainly do experience a lot of heartaches no matter how many lives they are able to save. So when you think about it, or see a fire on TV, say a prayer for them. they sure could use it. And if you see one, make sure to let them know how thankful you are for the job that they do in service to our communities.
Talk to you next month! Love, Jimmy.

August 2021 Update
Hi all! It’s your favorite fluffy boy, Jimmy. I have had an awesome month. I have made a bunch of new really good friends with whom I love to learn with. They have been teaching me a bunch of new skillsor so they think because I have been really teaching them. And guess what else? Next month is my birthday! Actually, in a couple of weeks my brothers and I will be 2 years old. We should be having a party too. I know it will be fun because birthdays here are always the BEST. Hopefully, my brothers get their own cakes, because I am not sharing mine, no matter how much I love them! haha. Well maybe I will give a little to Parker, he always shares his toys with me. Well, thank you all for all that you do for us in here. We really appreciate you. Thanks again! Love Jimmy

July 2021 Update
Hi everyone! So, I have been told that I am really clingy. I am working on that. I have also been told that I need to expand my social network. I need to get used to new people and that is what I have been doing. I am surrounded by a lot of cool people that love me. I am realizing that it’s ok to be away from my handler and get to know someone new. It has not been easy but I am doing better. I just want to thank everyone for all your love and support and don’t forget that my birthday is coming up soon! =)

June 2021 Update
Hi everyone! I just wanted to fill you in on my month. Apparently, I love eating rocks, but Rychard has been telling me that I can’t eat them. He says they are not food. I beg to differ. I have been eating them and they are great! But he is my friend so I am trying not to indulge (while he’s looking). I love tug toys and I also love to destroy every toy I get. I should write the Kong Company and tell them their toys are easily destroyed by Doodles. Well, until next time!

May 2021 Update
I learned two new colors: red and orange. Rychard is my new friend, and he helped me learn them. Also, I’m learning that I don’t have to dig for gophers. Just because I feel the impulse to dig, doesn’t mean I should. I know I can control myself. I’ve been getting used to new people and I’m learning that just because someone takes my leash for a little while doesn’t mean that my main friend is leaving forever.
I love Nala. She is my best friend. Also, I love to play tug but what I really love are beggin’ strips! Well until next time!

Hey, everyone! It’s me Jim Jim! This past month has been a great time for me. I’ve been learning so much. For instance, I’m learning how to “Go Get Help.” It’s a work in progress for me but baby steps, right? My partner and I have also been working on my energy level. I guess I’m a fast dog… oh wait! Wait… my handler is telling me I’m confusing my speed with my energy level which goes from zero to 100… Yeah… we’re working on it. This will help me out during my teaching exercises. Boy!
My favorite pastime is playing keep-away with my brother Rowan. He says I hog the tug rope. He’s just jealous I’m a lot faster than him when it’s time to pick the toys we want to play with. This month flew by. I can’t wait to update you more on my doodleness next month… stay tuned for some more awesomeness. Take care and be safe.
