Hi all, Does anyone want to dog sit my Giant Schnoodles for a few days? I'm going back & forth to Mexico. Its difficult finding a hotel that will take 3 large dogs. I found one & convinced them but its expensive. I want to take one & leave either 1 or 2 depending on situation. all my dogs are dog friendly & obedience trained although Zola could use less excitement & more obedience. I want to leave Zola my 2 yr old puppy. She's a good girl but needs work on pulling behavior which makes her difficult to walk when walking 3 dogs even if I do find a less expensive hotel. I might leave Mirage, a great big love bug. Xena goes with me, even if we have to sleep in the street. LOL. They are all due for grooming, but are flea free, friendly. although I don't trust Zola with young children. She likes to play & doesn't have enough experience with children to play properly, unless supervised & told to sit or drop if she gets too into it. I have all commands written & they obey. For trade, I have a large yard as well as a dog run. I have crates but seldom use them except as open dog houses in the dog run. they also have a kids playhouse in the dog run with both heater, fan, blankets, & I notices many balls & toys buried in the blankets. Right now, the gates to the dog run are open, so they just go in there to play & bury toys in the blankets in playhouse. If I care for your dog, it will be your choice: the big yard, the dog run or both & of course they have the house & sleep with me. House training isn't much of an issue bcs I have gym rubber floor which is easy to clean up from accidents. I usually have a door open so they can go outside at will. If there are problems, like 4:00 AM barking, burying bones in my bedroom which wake me, etc. they are leashed to my bed at night. First thing in the AM I take them out to the potty pool where they get a treat when they go in the potty pool. If they need potty training I do it. It doesn't take me much time to do it. I've written a book on my method. see www.crowdrise.com/servicedogs . My mother always said I was a maven oifen dreck translate All knowledgeable about s*** LOL., I guess she was right. I wrote a book on it . LOL. So if anyone will take Zola & maybe Mirage while I'm gone, I throw in some free training on exchange when I take your dog. I'm on Clairemont Mesa & will be travelling South to the border. caringpro@gmail.com Puppy love from Inventing Joy & Furry Folk
