Adventures in Dogsitting

We’re dogsitting my husband’s coworker’s dog this week while they’re out of town. Lily is a medium-sized dog and while I was a little worried about having a larger-than-we’re-used-to dog around, I’ve gotten over it!

She’s very sweet-tempered and as you can see from the picture above, she’s having a lot of fun playing with Honey. And even though she’s so much bigger than Chip and Honey (put together!) it’s obvious she respects their dominance:

She’s also a much faster mover than I’m used to — harder to take a picture of her than the smaller ones!

Even Turbo, who was understandably wary at first, has gotten over it and doesn’t even flinch when Lily comes up to sniff him while he’s lounging on the couch. The other two cats are staying safely tucked away in a bedroom, only venturing out when Lily’s in the backyard (which isn’t surprising). The kids, of course, are over the moon. It might be hard sending her back home at the end of the week!
