Jim just left to pickup the dogs from the kennel. I haven’t seen them since Friday when I dropped them off. It was easy to leave the big dog - she’s happy no matter what. But Lola always thinks she’s being abandoned for good. She was so nervous when I picked her up after her dental a few weeks ago, and it took her all evening to calm down. I told them to give her some extra love - she’s a people person, uhh…people dog?

Last night it seemed so odd to be here without the dog. I caught myself wanting to feed them, check the bowls for water, looking at the doggie dog…the place just seemed empty without those 8 paws tap dancing around!
