Thank you to everyone who played the did-you-know game. What a blast to see hands go up and all the comments !!! And I’m assuming the likes and loves are the ones who didn’t know but know now 😂🥰

It’s not at all uncommon for me to sit with my book in my lap for sometimes 45 minutes at a time trying to make a visit work for someone. Both buildings have a collection of different sized kennels. Some dogs need the quietest room, or the largest, or even the smallest. Some can only stay in one certain building or in one certain room. Most are much more versatile 😂🥰 And because of the many reasons boarding is needed, the days and times for picking up/dropping off can vary enormously. It can be very challenging to get everyone into the rooms where they will be the happiest for the entirety of their stay but so worth it when I get a puzzle figured out and a request on the calendar 💖😎 There have been times, tho, I’ve said no only to have something ni**le in my brain and, upon a second look, an answer is right there 💖 My motto is “If I have a spot, I’ll say yes”. Just so you know 😘

I want to try something fun today. A little did-you-know tidbit. Play along !!!

Did you know my greatest joy (besides actually taking care of dogs, of course 💖💖) is making as many of your boarding requests work on my calendar as I can ?

Hi everyone !! I’m going to be catching up on posting with a series of posts covering some refreshers of info, introduction of new info and some, hopefully, fun did-you-knows 😍

But to start out let’s get the one piece of information no one will want to hear out of the way 😑

Prices will again be going up here at Foster House. I’ve been dragging my feet on this and because I just can’t bear to get where I need to be in one jump, I’ll be doing a little step now and another one later in the summer or fall, after I’ve drug my feet as long as I can again 🫤

I truly value your business and the opportunity to take care of your pets and strive to continue to do the very best job I can for you. My greatest joy is seeing the dogs come running up the sidewalk to give me hellos 💖 I am always so excited to see them again 💗🐶💗

This was going to be my Thanksgiving post. As usual, I’m late (to nonexistent) with posting. I’m always formulating the words in my head as I go about daily life here at the kennels, just horrible at sitting down and writing them out 🫤

When I snapped these pictures, tho, I was feeling especially thankful. Thankful to have the desire to continue to upgrade and make things better for the dogs and thankful for the people who cross my path that can turn my ideas into reality 💖

Picture #1 shows the new roof over the entire back of the building as well as the new porch/step system that is designed solely for my bulldog boarders and their short little legs 😂 It is also beneficial for the older babies with stiff joints. Most of all, we are all enjoying having a place for them to get out of the rain or snow on trips outside !!

Picture #2 shows a side view so you can see the new yard I’m now able to create because of the updated porch steps…..finally. I’ve needed an extra yard for quite some time to help with 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. potties. Although I couldn’t quite get it finished before the recent snow, I’m confident this weekend will see it complete and ready to use 🙏🙏

Picture #3 is the new walk-thru door that replaces a doggie door that was just not practical any longer. And besides, I’m getting too old to be getting up and down multiple times a day running doggie doors 🫤😂 This new door also will allow me the use of an extra yard which will make early morning and last potties at night much more efficient and pleasant for all of us 😎 If i get around to it, I’ll post a new picture later on when the new step gets built. I think that project falls on me 🫤😂

Picture #4 isimply shows what’s left of a tree I had the crew take out for me while they were doing the other projects. When spring and summer come back around, I’m probably going to be missing it but right now I’m thankful I no longer have to worry about wind or ice storms bringing down limbs on either of my buildings 💖💖 It was a big old unhealthy tree and needed to go. I will plant two new ones in the spring 😘

Thank you to everyone who continues to come here for boarding and grooming and making these upgrades possible 💖💖💖💖 I’m blessed beyond belief to be here taking care of all your pups 💖💖💖💖
