Still Dog Sitting

Moments ago I kicked the dogs out of the house. For some reason they like to play inside but once they are out they sit at the door and whine to be let back in.

While it has only been five days, it seems like much longer that our friend’s dog has been staying with us while she is out of town. At first we thought he would be a little terror, but alas, he is just a little terrier and quite a sweet and surprisingly well behaved dog. Our Lucy hasn’t slept this well since, uh, the last time we dog sat back in March. Again, reaffirming the notion we need to get her a little brother, preferably a dominant one to be on an equal playing field with her.

The only thing I’m not sure about as far as a small dog is, well, their ability to sneak past you quite quickly. With Lucy being a Great Dane it is near impossible for her to simply sneak under your legs and run out the door, although she has tried. Of course we are not financially in a situation that will allow for us to invite another four-legged friend into our home, so I suppose dog sitting will have to be our substitute for a little brother for a while. Perhaps soon our circumstances will change.
