    Puppysitting!

    Our neighbors who own Magnus, the 5 month old lab, asked us to watch him in a few weeks for a weekend. I’m sure it will be exhausting and chaotic and SO MUCH FUN. We can’t wait.

    You will have so much fun. I bet it will stir up some memories and you will cry a bit too, but they will be good tears.

    And maybe over a few days I can get pictures to share. All previous attempts have been foiled by poor lighting, manic jumping, and puppies inherent tendency to give you their butt when a camera is pointed at them.

    that's awesome! you can tell them that even if they don't have plans they can just drop him off naytime too

    Since I am unlikely to get a puppy until i retire, I'd love to be able to puppy sit now and then

    for photos: we love video too, easier to catch a frantic puppy on video but sleepy puppy photos are easier to get!

    The neighbor is lucky. It's not too often you get a neighbor like you, who is a great dog owner and the pup will be in good hands. It will be good for you too.

    O boy, I bet you can't wait!! Hope if there are tears, they will be of joy. Agree with Tanya, video would be best.

    How about if they let you puppysit him for one night in the very near future, just so you get the feel. And maybe some video!!

    Your neighbors must feel very confident in your ability to take care of Magnus, a feeling well deserved.

    Our house is not puppy proofed, so we’ll probably be going over and letting Magnus out a lot.
