More Pet-sitting adventures
We just pet-sat Kaiser again while Chad was away on a business trip. This time it was disaster-free. Scarlett loves when Kaiser visits, since he has a similar energy level. Rose is already too mature for most of Scarlett's shennanigans, although Rose will play with her if Scarlett gets something going. After Kaiser left with Chad to go back home Scarlett stood at the door and cried and cried. I tried to distract her by letting her outside, but she just looked around and came right back, as if to say, "Nope, he's not out here." The next morning she woke up early and rushed downstairs to see if he came back, but his crate was still gone. After that, she seemed to accept that he went home and stopped moping.
Having TWO dogs like Scarlett is a bit tough on the humans though, just as having two dogs like Kaiser is tough on Chad when he watches the girls. He took a bunch of pictures from when he pet-sat for us while we were at Meredith's gradutation party, though. I put them in a new album in the June folder.
Dynamic Duo Dismay Dogsitter
Patrick and I are on vacation at the beach in North Carolina. Sadly, no dogs allowed, so we left Scarlett and Rose with my friend Chad, who owns their good friend Kaiser, the German Pincher. Relieved that they would have a pal to play with while we were away, we have been enjoying our vacation.
Well, we got a message from Chad the other day. Apparently the girls jumped over the baby gate while Chad was at work and had whippet zoomies around the apartment. They knocked over the microwave and all the dog food and treats on top of it. While they were having a great time, the less nimble Kaiser tried to dig his way out . . . .making big holes in the carpet! Scarlett also peed on the rug, since she isn't used to having to hold it during the day, since Patrick works at home. After cleaning up the mess, Chad took the trio for a walk, thinking, "At least no one got hurt." Just then, Scarlett got stung by a bee! With the ensuing chaos, Chad got a nasty rope burn on his hand from Kaiser's leash.
Uh oh! At least Scarlett had no adverse reaction to the bee sting and we are headed home in the morning.
