It's been a big few days! First, Oliver and Spencer moved... I had been walking them starting the second month I was in business, way back in 2006. After seeing them 5 days a week for 3 1/2 years, it was very weird to not pick them up last Friday. I hope they find a good walker, and the pack (and I) will miss them.
Second, I got a new truck. Not because I wanted to, but because the old, stinky van was on it's last legs. It was at the point where I wasn't sure if it would survive week to week anymore. And the last thing I want to happen is to be stranded somewhere with a broken down van and a dozen dogs. The truck isn't in the budget, but it's a business necessity, so here we are.
Last, Charlie spent the weekend with me when his mom was out of town. I've never boarded any dogs before (my cats do not appreciate it), but all went well. Charlie lives with cats, so I was much more open to the idea. I took him up to the lake and we swam and generally had a good time.
That said, I guess I'm now in the business of dog boarding, too. As long as your dog is good with cats (preferably lives with one or more) and isn't too "barky", I have a spot for them should you ever need one. I charge significantly less than other boarding places, and the upside is the familiarity with me. Next time you're headed out of town, let me know!
