Jayden and Riley 4/17/08

Came to see the kids about 12 today.. Very happy to see me.. My husband was off work today and wanted to see the pups , so I brought him along too..
There was a little puddle and a couple little poops. Cleaned that up and cleaned it with the canned cleaner.. replaced one pad.
Took the boys out. Very windy today.. My husbands wind pants were making a lot of noise and scared Jayden! LOL both did their "potty" 2x right away "good potty" !!! LOL
Found out Jayden likes ROCKS!! Riley attempted an escape but came runnin back as soon as I called him...what a lover!! anything for kisses and hugs!
we played outside and had a treat...
Riley headed for the door, I think the wind was starting to get to them...
we came in and they had their lunch and had fresh water.. Gobbled it up right away!!
we played a little and my husbnad took some awesome pics of me and the boys!!
we then went back out and the boys ran and played and wrestled and tried to eat rocks (well, jayden did, Riley just followed him). so I distracted them to the other side of the yard..
I love it when Jayden does something he knows he is NOT sippose to do and looks at me like " I am NOT doing anything" LOL just like a kid! LOL
They were great... tried to keep them out long enough to get some poops out of them but they were too busy playing...
So anyway.. Jayden wouldn't give up that rock...so I gave him a treat and out came the rock :)
bribery works all the time
I will be back to see the babies tomorrow :)
new pics posted (as usual can't get enough of these boys)

Jayden and Riley 4/16/08

Boys were great today. Made it there around 12:30. No messes on the floor. made it all on the peepads (i put the soiled ones up on the hamper upstairs) I replaced the dirty ones with the clean ones on the table and put the only poop in the bin outside.
Before I forget... You may want to stop using the 409 around the dogs... its toxic to domestic animals... try Simple Green buy it in concentrate then it lasts forever.. I use it at home and used it in grooming... non toxic safe around pets and kids.
anyway.. boys were geat went outside and peed (good potty!!!!)...very windy thought they were going to blow away!! they gave me lots of kisses!!!
we played a little outside and in... Riley decided to try to leave the yard again.. Called him back and told him NO... I took my eyes off him one second to watch what Jayden was doing Riley is quick... Jayden like the gutter on the other side of the yard seems he thinks he shouldn't be over there because he looks all guilty if I call him to me! LOL
brought them in and gave them a treat, then played some more...
Gave them lunch and fresh water... They ate and were even more energetic and loving!! :)
took them back out for awhile, hoping to get some pottying out of them... No luck.. They wrestled and played... took some pics... really windy... brought them in.
played a little in the pen...gave them their rope toys...I guess I taste better though :)
Had to go.. hate leaving them and they know when I am getting ready to go ... they start getting excited and start crying... real dread leaving them :(
be back tomorrow
pics on next post!! :)

We went out and played for a long time... These boys are full of energy today!! I got lots of lovin and they got lots of exercise today!!

Riley made a break for it and got out of the iron gate called him in and he came right to me I told him "NO!"... Jayden is fascinated with the dirt and rock by your a/c unit on the side of the house...
They did a lot of runnin and wrestling around today.. When they would stop and see me watching them, they would stop everything and run to me! awwwwww
gave them a treat and they took it outside...Riley was working on his, Jayden came and took the part he hadn't eaten yet :(
Thought it may be time for lunch...got their lunch ready and and they were right on it!!

Jayden and Riley 04/07/08

Came to see the boys at 12 today. They were really excited to see me and I was them!!!
There was a puddle on the floor and 2 poops... I got them outside to potty and used the word :)
Riley went (only peed) Jayden was way to excited to go...
Cleaned up puddle and used the 409. Cleaned up the poop and used 409 on that . Nothing on pee pads.. :)
We played outside a bit. Then I brought them in to give them their lunch and fresh water.
I gave them 1/2 a cup of food with the organic powder and a spoon of yogurt in each bowl and fresh water... they ate a little bit but having me there was a big distraction... they picked at the food but play was the main agenda!!
Back outside to play and do some belly rubbin!!! we had a good time!! took some pictures
I got loved to death... loved every second of it!!
they are goood boys Riley seems to really be understanding commands..
Cat came out, hissed at the boys and left :)

I left your papers that you signed and Dr Dittrich's card. I also left the shed-ender and a brush for the pups. I bought the brush and never used it, it was too big for the dogs I groomed. So you can have it :)

Sunny was up and ready to be uncovered thios morning!! I uncovered both Sunny and Roxy and gave them fresh water and gave Sunny fresh food. I asked Sunny to step up and he came out and stepped onto my hand, started nippin at my finger so on top of the cage i put him!! LOL I changed only one full bowl, he seemed to have eaten most of the seed out of the other seemed to be half eaten do I dumped half of it and topped it off (as instructed with Life and the seed mixes). Roxy was a good girl, I topped her food off and gave her some life and some fruit and some seed (as instucted).

Thompson Pets 3/28/08 PM

Came to see the kids at 6:30. I could hear Sunny from outside!!! Brought in the mail and came in.. Sunny was talking up a storm!!
Changed water bowls for everyone first. Then I tried to get Sunny's food bowl with him in the cage...Nope. he didn't like that idea. So, I let him out and he hopped on top of the cage while I topped his food bowls. Then I topped Roxy's food bowl. Then I told Sunny it was bedtime, night- night, sleepy -time and he went right back in like a good boy!!
I grabbed a couple milk bones and rawhide strips an and went out to see Raven and Hercules.. they were real happy to see me!.. gave them fresh water and a little food in their bowls.. Raven ate right away. Hercules was much more interested in the rawhide! Hercules finally decided to eat (after Raven ate almost everything so I gave Hercules some food). Raven started eating her rawhide and running allover the yard!! she was really excited!! she got me with her tail ! wow its stung!!! strong girl!!
Came back in and covered up Roxy and Sunny and told them goodnight and shut the blinds in the kitchen.
I will be back in the morning.
I forgot my camera!! I will bring it in the morning and get those pictures!!!! :)

Charlie Zini 3/27/08

Charlie was in a great mood yesterday! he was awake in his crate when I got there.. he came out when he saw me and we went on our walk.. He urinated a lot and he BM'ed also..
when we got home we went outside in the yard to enjoy the weather.. I think he liked the wind blowing in his face he just let it blow his ears!! he walked around a little and urinated again and then sat down and started grooming himself.
came inside and did some rolling and belly rubbin... he came and just sat close to me and I just rubbed his head and stroked his back... he seemed very content :)
he eventually just went in the bedroom and started eating his treats and it was almost time for me to go... so I put up the gate and went on my way... He was just fine...
I cleaned up his legs and belly too (as usual)

Long Dogs 3/22/08 5pm

Pop in visit.. I was on my way to a house sit and checked in with the girls, just came in and let them all out. Let Babygirl and Addie out to stretch...
I hope you don't mind....I brought another crate for Babygirl and maybe you can use the crate Babygirl is using for Addie . They just seem so small for them! I brought one for Babygirl thats a little taller and a little bit longer..she can stand up better in in and a little more room to move.. She has been going outside and not once in the crate... Its a wire crate and you are welcome to have it... It looks like Addie is outgrowing that little one too!
anyway I hope you don't mind me making the change.. if you do I apologize...
Mail is in and I will be back around 9pm to let them out and stay for 45 minutes or so with them..
everyone is doing fine! playing and eating and pooping and doing dog stuff!!

Then we came back in and Addie and Babygirl nibbled on some food and water. everyone was playing with toys (babygirl) or chewies (shasta and addie) and keeping tyhemselves busy..Babygirl is pretty much glued to my hip when I am there.. Either at my side or on my lap.. Sometimes she ventures off and plays with the others or gets a toy. but comes back to me...

I hung out with the girls outside for about 15 minutes while they did their thing then we all went inside and while they played I jsut kind of took turns with Addie and babygirl on my lap.. Shasta was way to busy making sure she knew where all the chewy bones were! Butterfly was up on the table watching the whole scenario!
I let them outside one more time and they did some more "business" LOL
I put them back in their crates because it was still a bit cool this morning

LOL once I started they both started eating.. then Babygirl finally had some water... I gave them all new chewy bones and they played musical chewies! after about 1/2 an hour we all went out again and Babygirl finally went of on her own and went potty!!! Yay!!! Addies is a character she is just everywhere!!
we had a good time tonight, everyone was happy!! I brought my husband with, and he was getting loved to death by Shasta!! Babygirl liked him and of course Addie liked him so they were all 3 running back and forth between the 2 of us... Butterfly was on the table most of the time , just watching, gave her some lovin too!!
Water bowls are fine, refilled food bowls...
Took garbage out to the curb

JAX

Jax Gomez 3/21/08

Jax is such a good boy!! was very excited to see me but he listened well!! we went outside right away... He urinated then came inside. I gave him fresh water and then his food.. I put the Kong in his food... he didn't want to eat, but brought me his toy... I threw the toy a few times and played with him a few minutes, then tried to get him to eat... Then I called you!
Took Jax on his walk.. He pooped halfway to the school (got it in the bag and put it in the garbage by the school). We then just sort of walked all arounf the school area for half an hour,,, At first Jax started pulling, then I think he realized I wasn't going to let him take ME for a walk and I told him EASY and he started slowing down and walking beside me and I told him Good Boy... It went really well.. He was real happy to get out and smell things and chase the bugs!!
I think the landscapers at the school were scared of him (GOOD)..
well, we came home and I tried to get him to eat... Nope..
let him in the yard again.. He urinated and pooped again and spent a few minutes out there smellin stuff and being a dog...
brought him in and he took the kong out of the food bowl but would not eat his food so I put him back in his crate...
I forgot to put the bowl back up on the counter (oops I am sorry)
The key is on the kitchen table with copies of your signed documents and copies of all my information (certification, insurance and background check).
I had a wonderful time with Jax and we got along great. He listened well and we had no problems at all...
Call me whenever you need me :)

will post some pics I took of Jax

Came by this afternoon to see the girls. Everyone was really happy to see me. We all went outside.. Even Butterfly came out and sat on the table and got some fresh air. Babygirl was a shaking little mess. I just held her and she eventually stopped. Poor baby... She kinda held on for dear life! :)
Addie was trying to crawl up my and Shasta was just having a nice relaxing time on her swing..
we went inside for a bit and I was trying to pet all three of the dogs at once I had Babygirl in my arms and Addie on my lap and Shasta behind me on the couch!
Addie did make a mess in her crate, but not on the pad, so I got the poop out and rinsed it out and put back in the pad.
Babygirl doesn't seem so in love with the crate but shes not freakin out either...
I am going to do an extra visit today and tomorrow free of charge just because Babygirl is new to the crate thing and I want to make sure she gets enough "out of crate time" to eat and drink and "out time" .
everyone is doing good. I am going to go back before 5pm and then this evening after 8...

Mallory Cats 3/21/08 Final Visit

Pasha and Chowder were just beautiful this morning, very friendly and followed me allover.....probably because they were bad kitties and got into the treats again.... I left the bag so you can see what they did to it... I guess I should have put the bag in a different spot than where you usually keep them... Didn't know the kitties were so resourceful :)
well, everyone was fed and fresh water.. Cleaned both cat boxes.. Played with the kitties and Chowder let me have her on my lap for a few minutes she was just purring away, then she decided to chase Pasha... I called Pasha to come get some attention before I left but he never came back out..
I enjoyed caring for the kitties in your absence and I hope you will call on me again if you ever need my services!
Thank you!!!

Sam Egger 3/21/08

Sam met me at the door with those beautiful jade eyes!!! we went to food bowl and filled it up. Then I cleaned his box...
I met Sam in the living room and tried to play with him.. Not up for playin... so I just pet him for awhile.. Pet his head and stroke his back and he was nuzzling me. did that for a bit... Then I decided to do a house check to make sure there were no "accidents"...Hose is clear and Sam had moved on to bigger and better things like breakfast!!
be back in the morning!!!

Millie and the kitties 3/20/08 PM

Millie girl was so sweet when I came in tonight no barking a little whining... gave her the wet food and her dry food and fed Sam and the kitties while she ate... Then we leashed up and went on our walk... she smelled her flowers!!!! she did her thing and headed for home.. Almost left without me, I had to tell her to wait at the corner..
Got home..Did Millies ear treatment.. gave her a carvers treat for being good.. Gave the kitties treats.. met Millie on the floor by the couch and we did our snuggling... Lucky came too!!
Lucky was licking Millies foot and nuzzling Millies head I was so touched, it was so cute. awwwwwwwww! I have pics will post them later.. :) well, we all hung out a bit.. I had to meet a woman for a key, so I had to leave my Millie girl.

Charlie Zini 3/20/08

Charlie was half asleep in his crate.. I was calling him as I came in so maybe I woke him up as I came in... he was pretty wet.... We went for our walk.. urinated a lot.. NO BM.... Beautiful day.. let him out in the yard for a bit when we came back.. He urinated again..
Back in the house.. Wiped Charlie down with his wipes. On legs and tummy...
then to the mat , Charlie rolled around and got a lot of belly rubbin and love!! I was scratching his back where he is so dry and I think he really liked that :)

spent a little time just petting him and letting him do his thing on the mat. Then lured him into the bedroom with a treat!!

Mallory Cats 3/20/08

Pasha and Chowder have found a way to get up to the shelf and get the treats down..... They got another bag of treats... They are jumping on the litter box and onto the trash compactor... I hid what was left of the treats behind the cans of food.. Hopefully they will not be able to get to them..
Fed the kitties their dry food... They seem to not like the brown pieces... :( gave them fresh water and cleaned both litter boxes...
Played with the kitties with the stick/feather toy and gave pasha some petting...chowder didn't want to be coddled.....

Mallory Cats 3/19/08

Pasha and Chowder have become very friendly right in time for our time together to end... They are coming right to me and letting me come right to them :)
I fed them and cleaned out both litter boxes and gave them fresh water.
I also discovered that the treat bag had been ripped open and eaten... I don't know how they gor up there and got it, but they did.. I apologize... I guess they won't be getting treats for awhile... Thankfully it wasn't full...
Played stick with the babies awhile and watered the plants a little...
Pasha let me pet him awhile and so did Chowder.

Autrey Girls 3/18/08

Raining like crazy!!!!!! When I got to the house someone had diarrhea on the towel in the kitchen. Removed the "stuff" with paper towels and put it ziplock baggy, in garbage, rinsed out towel, rolled it up..left on counter. Should have put on the washer, forgot,sorry :(
let the girls out (before i cleaned the mess of course) and all but Abby was out doing their thing. Abby tinkled on the mat LOL All finished up and wanted to go inside. Towel dried them and their feet...
we all did laptime and had a treat..
one more run outside...Then I noticed someone had pooped inside during laptime :(
cleaned that up in a ziplock bag! ... everyone was in , cleaned them up and they went in their crates and got their last cookie.,but Cait, of course, had to call her... She came runnin and I dried her off and cleaned off her tummy and paws, she is really good about that :) gave her a treat and told them all to be good and I would see them on thursday!!!
all sweet babies as usual!!!

Charlie Zini 3/18/08

When I came to see Charlie I was soaked just from going from the driveway to the door!! POURING OUT! I don't think we are going for a walk!! I think the wind would blow Charlie right off his little feet!! :)
Came in Charlie was sleeping on the other side of the bed, snug as a bug!! Called his name loud enough to wake him up.. He woke up and made it in to the kitchen kinda bumped into the wall making his turn to go get his water, poor little fella...
Opened the back door. He took one look outside and turned around and went the other way ! haha!! a few minutes later I guess he realized he had to go so he wanted out.. I let him out and grabbed the towel.. He urinated ( a long time) and came back to the door.. He tried to dodge the towel! Smartie!! I had to chase him into the hallway to catch him!! Got him!! Towel dried him .
we went to the mat to do our usual. He was in pretty good spirits!! he didn't have much to itch and scratch today.. I think he didn't know what to do with himself! he did some private grooming...a nd I rubbed his belly and he did some rolling around....
gave him a treat and escorted him back to the bedroom after awhile....more soggy animals to petsit!! :)
See Charlie on Thursday!!

Mallory Cats 3/18/08

Pasha and Chowder came right to me again today let me pet them and were very friendly today. They were probably very happy to see me after the storm!. I assume the were a little scred last night. The rugs were a little astray and the toilet paper in the bathroom was all off the roll in a pile on the floor! threw it away and put on a new roll. LOL
Fed Pasha and Chowder and gave them Fresh water. Scooped out Upstairs and Downstairs litter boxes..
Sat in the front living room with both Pasha and Chowder. Pasha let me rub his head and ears. He was just purring!!! Chowder didn't seem to want any...
of course when I was leaving she wanted some attention... So I have her a little love real quick and headed out.

Pasha and Chowder came to me when I walked in this morning. let me pet them right away . :)

Realized today was garbage day. Took all the old litter out to the curb. Took bag out of kitchen receptacle and took it out too. replaced liner.
Played with the kitties in the front living room. They seem to like the stick part of the stick toy better than the feather part! we played awhile... I gave them some treats.
