Small challenges
We have just received a request from a neighbour. Wondering if we would be willing to babysit a pair of small dogs. I am fine with the idea but there are questions. I do not know these dogs nor their size nor their specific temperament. I don’t know how they react to fox is outside the window. Like right now. We have had a pair of foxes that have been arguing all afternoon nose to nose tooth to tooth loudly. How would a strange dog react to this. So far we have said maybe but I do know that it will require a special kind of dance. Based on experience getting two dogs outside at the same time is tricky unless you simply open the door and hope for the best. And what about at night? Will these dogs expect to take their own place in the bed even with strangers. We’ve been through that. Dogs that decide that the foot of the bed under the covers is there best place. What do two dogs do. I somehow doubt that they sleep in shifts. We shall see. Life is nothing more than a set of challenges, right? My own gut feeling is that two dogs is no worse than one dog or three. You just have to make sure that the door opens at the right time. And that I do not trip over the water bowl. Been there and done that. I do have to remember the Amazon delivery truck will upset the balance, but not to the rescue. I will see how this goes. And in passing the dates are not fixed apparently. I did my due diligence and asked that question.
