Since last Thursday my life really has "gone to the dogs". Twice a day, I had to go to my Mom/sister's house to walk their Min-Pin, Basett Hound and my niece's Chihuahua. Seemed like an easy job until I discovered the hard way that walking two ankle biters and 3 foot-long freight train is not an easy task!! Especially when they are not very well trained and encounters with other dogs, critters and people is guaranteed. Quite the adventure to say the least. I will be sharing some dog waking tips in upcoming posts.
Last night, I doggy sat my favorite Springer Spaniel. He has been one of my charges many a weekend for the last 3 summers (and sometimes during Christmas) and, unlike the aforemetioned trio, he is a treat to take care of! He is always happy to see me, is well trained and is a blast to play with! Staying at "his house" is like a mini vacation however I still manage to get some work in.
Speaking of work. While dog sitting I have been gearing up for Halloween and doing some shopping. Unique and frightfully fun collectibles and decorations coming soon to all of my stores and ebay too.
One more morning of canine adventures and it's back home to my kitty cats - they miss me and don't particularly like going for walks!
