the dog walker on Monday 7/22

Ursa - it was raining last night but she didn't seem to mind.  She went out to pee.  The night before it was thundering and she didn't seem to like that but had no problem with the rain last night! :) Simba - he is loving his walks.  He just trots along (although we're not taking very long walks.)

Max and Genny - they are enjoying time out in the yard.  Genny is eating fairly well... she always eats some while I'm there.

Scoobie - this is probably TMI but he is what I refer to as a "pooping machine." :)  He poops every time I walk him!  He is doing just great!

Gumbo - she is loving my company.  We've been taking some short walks and just hanging out.

Bacardi - won't see until tonight so no post today.  (I usually post once / day around 9-10am)

the dog walker on Sunday 7/21

Ursa -We were just hanging out on the back patio when your neighbor walked up to turn on the sprinklers.  I jumped - I didn't hear her coming!  Ursa is eating well and I gave her her meds this morning.  There was thunder off in the distance last night so Ursa peed but then she was ready to come in the house so we did.

Gumbo -  Yesterday on our walk, she was very social and wanted to say hi to everyone we saw.  When I got to your house this morning, she was in the yard and she was barking a little bit.  She didn't hear me.  She peed and then came in the house and she howled a few times.  I am hoping that she isn't lonely and isn't howling outside. :(  I took her for a walk this morning and she seemed to really enjoy that.  She is eating and drinking her water.

Max and Genny - your house was my first stop this morning and I didn't think to take any pictures while I was there.  I will try to remember to and post some in the next few days.  Dogs are doing just fine.  Genny is eating but spending time guarding her food too.  Max is just eating his... there is never any left in his bowl to guard! :)

Scoobie - Scoobie is enjoying his walks and time outside.  I'm feeding him when I get there but he isn't eating until after I leave.  He is peeing and pooping on each walk though.

the dog walker on Saturday 7/20

Topsy and Elliott - we walked a little bit this morning.  E seemed fine to be out and she enjoyed sniffing around.  she even barked at another dog being walked!  Topsy was just curious about everything, including sticks! :) Gumbo  - LOL!  She has one walking speed, fast!!  I took her around the block.  By the time we got back, her legs were quivering so I will probably do a little shorter walks with her.  She is very social too.  She got all excited any time we saw someone else outside.

Max and Genny - Max is enjoying his time outside without his cone on!  Genny is enjoying barking at the squirrels. :)  Thanks for the fresh veggies.  I believe a couple of my neighbors might get a few cucumbers.  They are huge!

Maisy, Gracie, Simba, Scoobie - my next post is tomorrow morning and I've not seen these guys and girls yet (it's 8:55am.)

the dog walker and my midday clients

midday clients

Here are a few that I don't get to see as regularly anymore but I still do occasionally!

sweet Vivian

Wesley and I recently pet sat for Vivian and Ursa and Vivian stopped eating this past Friday.  She just didn't seem to be acting quite right either so Wesley called Vivian's owners.  Upon their return, they took her to the vet to find that she has kidney failure.  Rest in peace sweet, sweet girl.  I will miss petting you and seeing your tail wag when I do.  Wesley and I have both been thinking about you these past several days.
