Lesson Learned #26 by this Pet Sitter
My dogs as well as the dogs I walk like Christmas trees. I'm not sure what the fascination is about Christmas trees laying on the side of the street waiting for trash collection but all dogs want to smell them. The boy dogs want to pee on them too. I always wonder if I should let dogs pee on them.... I feel badly for the guy that has to pick the tree up to throw it away. The first Christmas I had Sam (Christmas 2001) I bought a real tree. I'd never had a boy dog before. I set the tree up in the house, Sam walked over, sniffed it, and lifted his leg. I had to laugh (and I still do when I think about it.) That was probably one of Sam's best days: a tree just for him INSIDE the house. How awesome!! :)
dog walking on 1/2/12
Charlie and Maggie - the package was perfectly opened and none of the packaging was eaten. He seems fine too. I did only feed him 1/2 his breakfast in case he gets an upset tummy. Maggie got some rubbing on her head this morning too. I will call you once it gets a little later to let you know about his "little party" last night.
dog walking and cat sitting on New Years Day 2012 (yes, I just wrote 2011)
Chester & Bailey - Chester has been my happy morning doggie for a week now! I will miss seeing this sweet boy rousing himself to get up and head outside...all of the twisting and grunting is super cute! They had a great visit today! (Eating and walking are their favorite things!!) All is well!
Charlie & Maggie - they are doing great. When I got there yesterday afternoon, Maggie was sitting on the back of the couch looking out the window. I took Charlie for his walk and when we came back, there was a cat jumping over the back of your fence. I wonder if Maggie has a boyfriend. :) Charlie is just great. He enjoyed his walk! I fed them last night and this morning too.
Baby & Callie - I scooped both boxes, fed them both and gave them fresh water. They both had some food left and water... so I just refilled the bowls.
Sadie - I put Sadie's sweater on for our walk this morning. It was cold! We didn't mind though. We took a nice walk and she took care of all of her business!
