A Good Gig

The Schnoogs was never much of a babysitter, not because she wasn't asked to or wasn't responsible enough, but just because she never felt that it was the right kind of job for her.  She found a good gig in dogsitting, especially since she comes with the bonus ability to house sit for the owners.

Last week Holly spent 7 days with her little charge - Claire, an 8-month whoodle (wheaton terrier and poodle mix).  It was weird knowing that Holly was around but not staying at home, so on Sunday we called her up and enticed her over with the offer of dinner (homemade pizza, YUM).

Schnoogs eagerly accepted and showed up at 7 pm with Claire in tow.  Claire ran around the back yard, all of the dogs barked and played, we ate some pizza and then Claire threw up on the carpet...it was quite an evening full of activity!

Props to Holly for taking good care of Claire...and for cleaning up that mess on the carpet, ugh!

Holly's my people - I was never fond of babysitting either! And what a great picture of Holly and the pup!
