Mon/Tues/Wed

All in one go! Puppy keeping us active and out of the house, so haven't been on the computer that much recently...

Spencer (Oliver's older "sister", who I walk seperately, after the big walk) is now back in the pack one day a week. After over a year off and of private walks, she was THRILLED to get to ride in the van and hang with all the other dogs, many of whom she remembers from the good old days. Oliver was very protective of her all walk long, and kept running back to her to give her a lick and make sure she was okay!

Great weather this week, which means everybody is happy, including me. Rainy, grey weather really does make a difference with many of the dogs, and they tend to be a little down when it's like that (as am I). Let's hope the fall continues like this.

A quick reminder that a few of the dogs do not, still, have proper identification tags (you know who you are!). Microchips are not enough, as if your dog gets seperated from the pack, we need to have a phone # or something readily available on them so I, or you, can be contacted immediately. The odds of this happening are very slim, as most of the dogs don't venture too far from me, but still, it's better to be safe than sorry. Many of the dogs possess tags that not only have their home numbers on them, but my cell phone as well (or at least on a seperate tag).

I sent you an email about the tags, I'll be getting ones with your info made tomorrow. I think I'm probably just as happy as Spencer, if not more so, that she's able to join the pack again after her problems with arthritis. She's definitely not the same dog she was this time last year! So props to doggy Pfizer. And it sounds like Oliver enjoys having his "sister" around too.

P.S. Spencer and Oliver need some new photo's! I was looking at the ones on wannagoforawalk.net and Oliver is just a puppy in his and Spencer looks like a wooly mammoth!

I think I'm just as thrilled as you, Spencer and Oliver are!

re: the photo's.. yeah I know... I've been meaning to update most of the dogs pictures all summer, but I just haven't gotten around to it. And now my camera doesn't work. There are probably 5 or 6 newer clients who don't even have a picture on the site at all. :(

While I can't help you with the newer clients I could definitely email you some good shots of Spencer and Oliver *lol* Though Oliver's face may not be in them as he tends to be on his back with all four paws in the air.

That sounds like Oliver!

I actually do have some newer shots of him. I think I kept that one on the site because it was so ridiculous, the look on his face. I'll get the camera out next week for Spencer, though!
