lmao! ES, that sounds like a typical day at my house! I have three dogs and two cats and many times I have said,
"I wish I was a cat lover only"

Thank you for the big smiles this morning. What a mental picture I have! If your neighbors have surveillance cameras hidden in the house they will be laughing hysterically when they return I'm sure! LOL! I hope that each day things get a little easier as the pets get used to you coming and going. I too love the name Jumbo! LOL!

This post gave me the fits laughing!! I have the funniest visual in my head This spring hubby and I were staying with friends and two of the days agreed to "let the dogs in and out" while the friend went out of town. She told us all we had to do was speak sternly and authoritatively and they would come right in. Omegosh - one was also this little tiny schauzer? type dog that had our number!! This little guy, Tyson, kept both hubby and I tag teaming to get him back IN the house - having the greatest time laughing at us I am sure. We felt we had totally been manipulated by this tiny cute fellow who KNEW that we knew NOTHING about dogs When my friend returned, that dog kept laughing at us - I could see it in his eyes!!! Smirking at the dumb cat people!!!

Hope the rest of the week gives you many opportunities for more stories!! Wear coveralls and give yourself an extra half hour maybe?

LOL What a funny story. I hope that the rest of the week goes better.

This reminds of me when I used to house sit for people that my mom knew and sometimes they also had dogs. One time I also lost a dog in the house and it wouldn't come out and I think I needed to give it some medicine or brush it's teeth so I had to find it. Well I remembered that when it hears the doorbell that it loves to run to the door and bark. I rang the doorbell and sure enough it came out of hiding and ran to the front door. I was able to outsmart this little dog.

Tracy, that was a clever move!

Sara, how did it go today? You may be more succesful if you have some treats ready for them.

Today, I had to go to the dentist and Fister was out. I had 15 min. to get him in. I took a can of his food (the one he gets as a treat now and again), went down and started opening it - there he came racing from the other end of the yard. Mission accomplished.
