These first two pictures are from the first time I did some dog sitting for my mom. I was covered in dog slobber and my “fashionably ripped” jeans turned into a gaping hole, but it was a lot of fun (most of the time, haha).
Jack was glued to me at all times. The rest of these pictures are from when I spent a week with my mom, and then ranch-sat over the weekend while her and dad went on a little trip. In case you didn’t know–this is called a “three-chihuahua” nap. It’s my favorite kind of nap.I needed something out of the creepy wasp-ridden shed. I felt like I was in the opening of a horror flim.It was my cousin-in-law (and in awesomeness)’s birthday so I walked around the ranch and found a way to wish her a happy birthday via Instagram.I walked out to the pasture in my flip flops and pajamas to watch the sunset with the horses. Chocolate for dinner.Sanding and staining doors. Crunching on Sonic ice. Six of the eight dogs. Playing tag at sunset. Annie and Calamity dropped a bone in the water bucket and were trying to get it out. #problemsolvingskillsMy ridiculous topknot hairdo fit right in with these crazies.Jones soda.Awesome clouds and pretty windchimes. Sadie and Josie….butt to butt. Attempting to weed mom’s garden. Found this fat caterpillar. Those puppies are rowdy and I love them so much! Although, after over a week of being jumped on, snuggled with, and barked at (times 6 or 8) I was very happy to come home to my quiet apartment with my cozy bed and my spot….right between Joey and Newly (and Khloe too! She sleeps on the other side of Joe, at the foot of the bed).All of these pictures are from my Instagram feed. My user name is “macydan” if you want to follow me!
They love you and can hardly wait when I tell them their babysitter is coming! LOVED all these shots~
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MACY!
Happy Birthday.
I love dogs. We have a dog sitter come to our home. Now my dog likes her better than me.
Loved your photos.

Looks like the dogs had a great time. Excellent photos. “I’m cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs!”
Look at all the dogs! Adorable!
Happy birthday, Macy!!! Love the dog-sitting!
I really enjoyed your weekend even though it was a little hard on you. I only had two dogs a small yorkie mix and the smallest rat terrier I have ever seen. Peace reigned unless they were in running mode and then generally I stayed out of their way as much as possible. Then about 12 weeks ago we saw this itty bitty puppy that was a stray wandering in the street. We picked it up, took it to the vet, got it deticked…she was covered we couldn’t wait for meds to work so most were removed by the vet tech with tweezers. She had the bluest eyes and I had forgotten that blue eyes meant they were still under 3 weeks. Anyway first visit to vet 6 lbs. Second visit to vet 12 lbs. Last visit was something like 20 lbs with three weeks between each visit. By now I have seen miniture horses smaller and she is still growing. I don’t know where you live but sometimes I wish I had a puppysitter just to give me a break to go shopping or out to eat. I don’t know what you got paid but whatever it was, you were worth it!
Happy Birthday Macy! If you want you can dog sit for me, I only have 3 labs (one of each color)……Have a great great day!
Happy birthday to you! Your post was funny and entertaining. Your mom has her own little “herd” of doggies!
You sleep with dogs and eat chocolate for dinner ~ you are my kind of girl!! Happy birthday!
Jack is a special fellow – guess he just needed to know you were there!
These photos are so good and some are just plain ol’ adorable
@Roadkill_Spatula - There’s an inside joke with Joe’s side of the family about cereal. Apparently they rated different types of women using different flavors of cereal. When Joe and I got engaged, his family got him a box of cocoa puffs as one of his Christmas presents and everyone thought it was so hilarious. I still don’t know what it was all about, but I’m thinking cocoa puffs is a good thing. haha. He still has the empty box sitting in his closet somewhere.
@Still_Bruhaha - I love them! They make me happy! I get my “dog fix” and then go home to my kitties. haha
@mommachatter - Your puppies sound adorable. You have a heart for animals, its so evident in the way you talk about them. I’m happy your girl is doing so much better now! I live in the OKC area, are you near there?
@mlbncsga - I haven’t met a lab that didn’t love to lay its head in my lap and stare into my eyes. They have the sweetest dispositions! If I ever got a “larger” dog it would probably be a lab!
@murisopsis - He doesn’t like it when his momma leaves. Poor guy. He’s always on guard though, making sure we’re all okay.
@KarensPotpourri2 - I’m glad you enjoyed them! Of course, it helps that those puppies are so photogenic!!
