Pet Sitting Weekend

 Oh my dog we had a busy busy week last week.  That would be why our blog was a bit...well...slow.  Any hoo!  Here we go.  Grandma was on vacation.  We loved that!!!!  We got lots of extra cuddle time and walks.  Jiggles was ADOPTED by a loving family.  He seems to be fitting in quite well and they have had nothing but fun things to say bouts him little maltese self.  Such as he is trying to be pro tennis ball player, and loves sitting with his new human sister.  Oh and they renamed him Gizmo.  Love that name!!!

Now on to the main topic which is momma's Pet Sitting Clients.  She was furry busy with 3 bookings during a 5 day period. Which consisted of 15 dogs, 1 fish and 1 kitty cat.  OH MY DOG!  And so I turn it over to momma so she can share her stories.  *Runs off to finish the doggie room*  (more on that tomorrow's post)

Hello furry furiends and doggie pawrents!  I am thrilled that the pet sitting service via the vet clinic is taking off.  I couldn't believe that we had 3 bookings last week.  

First was the Tinsley booking.  We have Rascal the lab.  Oh he was a big ol' sweetie!  Wanted head pats and ear rubs.

 Cookie the petite poodle/terrier mix.  She had soft and wavy hair. 

And she was a tennis ball nut like Miss Mollie Jo!!!

And last but not least Miss Princess.  She is a beagle mix who LOVES tummy rubs.

Most of my visits...after I fed, watered and let the dogs out....were spent playing ball with Miss Cookie. 

 She would bring it to me, drop it in my hand, then...

....Sit and wait for me to throw it.  

Occasionally Rascal would get in her way and demand some of the attention.  And really how can one resist those dreamy lab eyes?!?!?!?

Miss Princess spent most of her time in my lap getting her belly rubbed.  But she did....

...Spend some of her time at her window making sure all things were well in her yard!

Oh I almost forgot the fish.  I had to care for him as well.  He is a little crown tail Betta fish.  He was a lovely shade of blue and red.  

Next we have the Flenner Booking.  In this booking I had a single cat to care for, Miss Sophie the calico.  She greeted me at the door with purrs and meows.  

I loved her soft fur and unique markings.

The family left a mouse toy for me and Sophie to play with.  Here she is stalking the toy as I twirled it around the room.


 and Attack!!!!

 After the game she found a good napping spot.

And that brings us to the Morrison booking.  Here we have Precious (back left tan and white), Prissy (back right black and tan), Genghis (Middle Basset Hound) and Moo Moo (Front Basset Hound).  I fell in love with Bassets at this moment.  I love those big floppy ears!!!! OH MY DOG!!!

Genghis was a talker and told me all about it!!!  Just look at that face!!!!

Here is momma Trinity.  She would not leave her post......

....Yep she was keeping watch over her litter of basset puppies.  And she has her paws full with 3 boys and 4 girls, a total of 7 puppies!!!  They were exactly 1 week old in this picture.  They had little tiny basset ears and made little puppy squeaking noises that made me melt! 

I loved meeting all the new Pet Sitting Clients and the pets, all 17 of them! One client followed up and told me things were well taken care of and if I am free later this year they would love to have me back.  :))

So I will let you all go back to ooh and ahh over the baby basset picture now and Mollie will be back tomorrow with a post about a new room in our house.

Stitches, Presents, and Spunky

 Well it was time to get Jiggles Neuter Stitches out so off he went with mommy.

 Coincidentally it was also Fancy's 1st Barkday so I sent her present with mommy since she was going to the clinic.

 Mommy made a pretty photo of Miss Fancy for Dr. Flanary's desk.

I found a uber cute duck toy for Miss Fancy.  

Which  after much playing she turned into a pillow.  Very smart girl!

 After presents mommy had to work at the clinic so she stowed Jiggles in the boarding kennels and found this....

A cute faded chocolate poodle girl!

And of course she saw Spunky man!  He was so happy to see her and was dancing all about in his kennel!

Jiggles...Life of a Foster Dog

 Jiggles is our guard dog/foster dog.  He is a pro at snoopervising and will alert the momma to the smallest of unknown activity.

 Here he is running back to tell grandma that a leaf moved!  Yep he is all over it!

With him doing that job and Bobo being his assistant I get time to sun myself more so that is a nice perk of having a guard dog/foster dog.

Although on occasion he takes snoopervising to a new level of obnoxious but...

Look at the boys talking out plans of how and where each should snoopervise.  Oh my!

 So I go over to lend a paw...but then a game of chase ensues...

Run Jig Run!

Run as fast as those tiny legs will take you!

The "guard dog" being chased by a girl.  *BOL*

 He made a full circle in the yard and then Bobo was ready to chase!

Go boys Go!

Mr Fancy Feet!

Nice ear and paw work Bobo!

And without fail if fun is going on Uncle Puppy is never far behind!

umm Bobo thats a bit rough don't ya think?  

As Jiggles saw that big curly coated one coming for him he called "SAFE" and hopped aboard the gofer cart.

This one is my favorite synchronized running.  Hmm...Is that an Olympic sport?


Mollie can I get some HELP here?!!?!?!?!?






Oh yea...Last but not least we have a new nick name for Mr. Jiggles.  Dirty Socks!  But you have to say it like the little boy in the Tyson Chicken Commercial.  See his furs are long and in the morning the grass has dew and well by the time he is done playing it looks like he has on....DIRTY SOCKS!


For the past few days Mr. Jiggles was on a home trial through my rescue, Mollie's Foundation.  But in the end they felt he was not a good match for their family so he came back this morning.  We is kinda glad to have him back he is fun to play with.  But I guess I need to pupdate his petfinder page and list him as "Adoptable" again. 

Oh the hard life of a Rescued dog running a rescue!  

Wags and Licks,
Mollie Jo
