dog walking and cat sitting on Saturday 10/5

Harley and No Name - she is so little especially compared to Harley and he isn't huge but she is tee tiny! They were both playful this morning and of course, she was a little piggy too.

Cici, Merlin, Jewel and Kitty - I was able to peer inside and see Jewel curled up on the couch sleeping this morning. She is really sweet. Everyone else is doing just great too.

Ginger - she zoomed all around the yard yesterday jumping on and squeaking on of her toys. She enjoyed her walk this morning too.

Bella - She ate better yesterday. She has been walking around the front yard a little bit so she can do all of her business and then she comes back inside for some lovin' (and a treat!)

Rocky, Lucky and Butter - Butter ate quite a bit overnight (even with the cone on.) She was really talking to me yesterday afternoon. She wanted out of the room but I didn't let her. The dogs are doing just fine too - enjoying their walks and time outside.

this dog walker's newest furry family member

Meet 7 year old Moose. We've had him for less than 48 hours and I know already that he has found his forever home and a place in my heart for even longer than that. He is sprawled out on the floor beside me with his back up against my foot right now. We think he is mixed with Hound - his fur is more hound like, his ears are super long and he is very interested in sniffing everything. If we can convince him he doesn't need to freak out when he is left inside the house alone, he will be perfect! :)

We are coordinating our schedules so someone is home with him all the time. I'm not sure what we're going to do on Monday. I think I need to hire a pet sitter!!

I can't wait to get my camera out and get some photos of him. He has been a little stressed with the changes in his life so I didn't want to take a chance on stressing him more by putting a camera in his face. Photos above are from my iphone.

Cici, Merlin, Jewel and Kitty - I've been hanging out with this crew for a few days. I'd not seen them in awhile and I had not met Jewel before. She is such a good girl and so sweet and so cute! I love the spots on her nose and she LOVES to be outside. The picture of Cici is one I took last time I pet sat which has been awhile back. I think she is so pretty, I saved this photo on my phone. :)

Charlie - Charlie is enjoying meal time and his walks. It was dark when I walked him this morning and there was an owl hooting nearby. I don't think he liked that sound. I stayed close to him even though I wasn't really concerned about an owl having an interest in him. He's a pretty big guy!

Bella - Miss Bella has been very wiggly and excited to see me. She, however isn't eating. She is certainly acting fine and she is drinking her water. I'm thinking maybe she doesn't love the new food??

Madison and Murphy - I think these two are both part dog. Both greeted me at the door with their tails wagging (I swear) this morning. I fed them, scooped the box and took your trash can out this morning. I appreciated their providing my early morning entertainment.

Well.... it was 7am before I got there again today. I apologized to them and they forgave me as soon as I fed them! I stayed a little longer today. Madison preferred being pet to having her picture taken so I obliged.

I got there at 7am and they both thought that was too late. :) Both came running to greet me at the door as soon as I walked in. I will get there earlier tomorrow! I fed them and while they ate, I scooped the box. I am hoping to try and snap some pictures of them. I need some kitty pictures for the new website!
