Traveling with pets is always a challenge. We have to stop every few hours - we usually know when it's time because Chloe puts her head over the dog "barrier" and noses Paul and Maizy "talks" to us! On this trip Callie has us somewhat concerned - several times when we have stopped and deployed the dogs she has started eating plants like she was starving. I always remember my dad saying dogs know which plants to eat, I hope he was right. We don't know if she's had an upset tummy or what.
Chloe continues to decline - she separates herself a lot these days, preferring to go up and sleep in the bedroom so we just put her bed up there now. The other dogs seem to know it too as they sometimes go into be with her - comfort "nurse" dogs?
But she still likes to get in the truck and go and get out the leash, she's wagging that tail.
In Orlando we did something we've never done, we hired a dog "nanny". We called several businesses and chose "Wag Watchers". Tracy (an expat Brit) came over and interviewed US about our dogs. It was funny how detailed her questions were. She was great with the dogs and would send us texts every time she saw them as well as pictures. It was worth the peace of mind and we didn't have to take time to come back to walk the dogs. We got maximum park time that way. More about the parks next blog. Going to explore Pine Island and Sanibel Island!
