New Year's Eve

Here is the gallery.

It's New Year's eve. We are not planning anything. I wanted Nathan to go get popcorn but he just wants to chill. I get that. Dog's are various degrees of combed out. No rain. No mud this afternoon. Floors are still clean - hooray. 

Boarders (most) will have departed by the 10th. Puppy vet visit the 9th, xray Cinnamon the 3rd. I have a ton of loot bags to get ready. The last gals that are in heat (no not breeding) are done by 14th latest. Cinnamon can be due 9th on. January will be a CRAZY month. 

We have a couple  of our puppy people that are sick. I pray for 2024 to be a better year. You know who you are. Here's to health for everyone!!!

We still have Katie looking for a home. She had her vet visit and is in excellent health and she is middle range. If interested send Nathan mail.

We have to institute a new boarding policy. If at last minute you change the drop off/pickup date and we can't fill that date as we cap then we must charge. Sorry. There are some that do this all of the time. If you change these dates and I now have to juggle to get your dog done earlier especially if that day is full, please say thank you - give me a tip - something. I use my tips for dog things or something special for myself. No extra money - well say thank you genuinely for me juggling to help you with a new time. Just saying... Shouldn't have to but...

We have some exceptional players. Jersey and Cassie arrived today and have been going non stop. Fudge has decided he wants to do naps daily. I think he expels so much energy that as a pup he needs it. Harlow is back hunting something or other. She's looking but I am not seeing anything. Olive has departed. 

The dogs will snuggle with us tonight at tv time. I still have videos to upload but we are making time to celebrate with the dogs. Nathan made steak fo

Everyone and I mean everyone is having a great time.

Happy New Year's everyone. May 2024 bring you great moments to treasure.
