Just returned from an hour + walk with one of two of the dogs that I am watching over this week. The temporary dog at my house is a nice Pit mixed with some other breed. He seems to be doing well, considering that he was locked up in a local animal shelter for a couple of months before I was able to find him a home. Though he has a massive head and shoulders, he still seems a bit skittish when it comes to cars, hoses, and other big dogs. Not sure he realizes how big he really is yet... Funny because he gets along great with small dogs.
The second animal with me is permanent. The landlords decided to finally take in a dog of their own. Found a little female Corgi puppy. Their chosen method of training her, since we all have different work/school schedules, is by kennel. I have never really heard much about this method, but they're standing by it. For now, I have to alternate when each animal is outside and where. The Pit gets along fine, but he's just so huge compared to The Corgi, that we're all afraid that he will hurt her by accident. Feisty one she is though.
Applying for jobs everyday, not to mention looking for a new car and waiting for student loan and grant money to come through. Fancy party planned for 'morrow's night. All of the guests must dress to impress, so it should be interesting to see how people look.
Must get ready; friend coming over to test out his new bike.
