The girl I hired came out again this afternoon to spend time with Vegas before we left for our trip. Remember the first meeting where he kept humping her and running like he had done a hit of speed?? Well today he proved himself. She walks in the door, he sniffs, excited to see her. She sits on the couch and calls him over, he turns for his butt scratch. He then wanted out, giving me that low grumble at the door, which was good so now she will know, he went out ATE SAND and come back in with sand dripping out of his mouth. :cursing:

I am beyond happy Stephanie will be staying here and I know that Vegas will be in good hands. Vegas came in from outside and just hit the tiles, and layed there the whole time. I kept telling her this is what he really is about. Sooo happy he did not hump her this time!!!

Good boy, Vegas! (except for the sand part, LOL)!! You're lucky to have someone trustworthy watching him, Kelly. Will she be living at your house while you're away?
I need to start looking for someone to stay here when I go on vacation too. I'm planning a trip in 2015 and i'm frantic about what i'll do with the boys. I figure i have over a year to do some research at least.

I told her if he humps her to just crate him, she told me she would deal with it and not to worry. I love her!! And bless her heart, she brings me a birthday card with a $25 gift card. Was not expecting that. So now on top of what I am paying her, the same as if I boarded him. (she only wants a T-shirt, LOL) I will be getting her a gift card for Starbucks from Vegas, Jester and the fish.

Wonderful, I had the same thought, he's setting you up! He'll go buck wild with her while your away!! Nah, he'll be a good boy! When we had our dane we had a fellow Marine come stay at our place, he enjoyed getting outta the barracks for a while and we trusted him to keep our house in order and take care of our baby, best way to do it if you have someone trustworthy!


ETA: He did this a few times and was actually the one staying with her while we were gone and she passed, he felt horrible, he cried with us, he went with us to have her cremated, He really felt horrible even though it was nothing that he had done! However it was great that he stuck around to help my husband load her up to go to the crematory and even tagged along!

It was very hard, thankfully we were on our way home we had just gotten up to finish our trip home from a overnight stop, he said she just didn't wake up, he tried to get her up to go out and realized she wasn't alive, there was nothing he could have done, it was just hard not being there, but we had no way of knowing........freak thing, i'm just glad he was there and she was home rather than have been boarded up!

I'm so very sorry to hear of her passing. Some people say that their pets wait until their owners are out of the house before they pass away so it will be easier on them (the owners). Their last unselfish act. :heart: :heart: :heart:

could have been she was young, only 2, after passing her breeder said a sister passed suddenly too, she stopped breeding thinking it could have been a genitic line of heart issues.. it's been 4 yrs, we still have her ashes on our desk along with a stone paw print, and if I could have cloned her I would have! She was perfect! I never thought we could have a dog that would have the personality, love, or just compare! Ollie however sure does!! I think he was sent to us for a reason, and it's amazing how it played out with getting him!
