SOL30, Dog Sitting

Displaying image1.JPGSOL30, Dog Sitting
This week our family is watching over our neighbors dog, Casey. We already have one dog who is a mix-golden retriever, who is very energetic, even though she is old. Casey is a large burly white dog who is droopy and not very energetic. She likes to chew on toys, which our dog does not. They are just opposites, yet they like each other. As we live right next to a park,  it is goose season. This morning, a goose flew onto our roof, and both dogs went crazy. They were barking and pacing about, something that neither of them would normally do, but because there were two of them they did. Casey is one of those dogs who wants to see everyone in the house, all the time. Take this morning. I woke up to the sound of her avidly ramming against the door to my room, so I let her in and she instantly left.

At the beginning of our time dog-sitting her she was very relaxed because of separation anxiety. When we would come into our house, she would just look at us, lying on the floor, and she would wag her tail by avidly thwacking her tail into the floor behind her. She is now more comfortable, so now she runs over to us and wags her tail instead. It is cute. Sadly, she has to be returned to her owners on Saturday, sadness. Anyways, she is very cute, droopy, and old, so she is good.

  2. Lucky. I have to bike to the owners house twice a day to take care of the dogs that I am dogsitting. Dogs are great though, so I shouldn't complain...
