Before joining Fairmont Hotel Macdonald in 2023, Hendricks underwent 2.5 years of training with the esteemed Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind in Ontario, Canada. Amid his training, Hendricks’ fun-loving spirit and friendly personality illustrated that he would best be suited for a career in hospitality, a profession in socializing with guests.

 

Hendricks can typically be found around the hotel from 9AM to 5PM on weekdays. When Hendricks is not spreading joy throughout Fairmont Hotel Macdonald, he is at home with his loving family.

 

There, he delights in playful runs with other dogs, enjoys generous belly rubs, and – naturally - indulges in his favourite treats.
