Canada Pooch 2022 Fall/Winter Dog Parka Haul & Review
Recently, we picked out a few items from Canada Pooch’s Fall 2022 collection to prepare Jonas, Fern, and Ivy for the cooler weather as temperatures continue to drop out here in the Kootenays.

Personally, I find this to be an exhausted & uninspiring trope that I see consistently reinforced in popular culture every single day on social media. It drives me freakin’ crazy!
