    Ohhhh … I think I want to stay at that Doggie hotel! What was the name of it?

    Where did you go on your trip? I bet Chance really missed you guys!

    So, just to go back to your other post…. did this throwing up start since you have been home from Vacation? And if so, how long has it been?.... this just could all be stress related with you being away and him being in the Kennel... did they say anything about him throwing up?....

    The name of the hotel that Chance stayed at is Wags Hotel. They have 2 locations in California. One in Sacramento and a brand new one in San Francisco. It is amazing. They really make your pet not want to leave. With a swimming pool to help dogs with arthritis and play pens with Astroturf where your dog can romp around with others. They have a few rooms to choose from and they do NOT look like a kennel. No wire cages! They use plexy glass in the front of the cage and cement sides. No smell of dog in the facility whatsoever. They have huge air purifiers in the rooms to eliminate that. I was really impressed when I viewed the facility.
    You can check out the website:

    They even have a cat area where the cat kennels are surrounding a HUGE fish tank where they can watch the fish all day to keep em busy.

    Ok, Ok…I know...sounds very strange but we don't have children and Chance is like our little baby

    We have two kids and the dogs are still our little babies! Shhhh, dont tell them.

    we hire a dog sitter when we go out of town who comes by and lets them out & feeds them. She comes three times a day. We let out dogs have run of 3/4 of the first floor and have never caused any damage. They always act the worse when we are home.

    @tanza:

    I hired a house sitter and they MUST stay the night….

    We have done that as well. Lately my boyfriend's parents have been keeping them at their house and they must be aloud to sleep in the bed with them. It is a requirement. They don't mind and Dash and Sissy love to go to "grandma's". I like having people stay at the house too. I like having someone to keep an eye on the apartment as well as the dogs. That way their schedule stays the same.

    I am not sure if we have luxury hotels for dogs here?? I will bet your dogs had a blast!

    I work with a lady that is our company's resident house sitter…gggg... and she works for a reasonable price, she will not take any money... all dogs and cats love her... she brings her own bedding, towels, food, other then the mail on your counter when you get home you would never know she was there...gggg
    Are we spoiled or what?... of course she is in high demand so you need to get your "reservations" in early!

    Wow! Pat–is there any possibility she would come to Hayward to do housesitting?? Of course I would want to pay a more than reasonable fee....

    I always vary feeding time a bit. It is a trick I learned after the first show with my horse... He was not a happy camper when one of his classes delayed dinner time. Being less rigid with the time and more rigid with a routine has made the time change a non-issue (though the horses have not had to learn to sit, they do have to wait for me to give the 'eat' signal before they get their grain like my b's have to wait for their 'eat' command).

    @Tayda_Lenny said in Your Experience at Wag Hotels in SF Bay Area?: Hi imbj, Where in the Bay area are you? We live in Foster City with a male brindle B, and we are looking for someone who can look after him when we are out of town. Would you recommend the person that watched yours? Michelle I haven't done this yet and my friend was just doing me a favor so she asked her brother. At this time, it's more of a peace of mind for me should I ever need someone to doggy sit my Cosmo.

    Pat said I gave INACCURATE information. Pat implied I said it was a genetic test. Both are incorrect. Had she suggested I simply say it isn't perfect, that would be fine. She didn't. And flawed doesn't mean "you can't put ANY faith in the test." Anyone stretching "flawed" to that extreme is simply looking for an excuse. But it is flawed in that it has not fully found which markers actually indicate for sure. It is flawed in that there are sometimes mess ups with the handling and hence done incorrectly (as is with ANY test). It is flawed in that it is a best we have but far from perfect and still being refined. However, I absolutely believe that it is the best tool we have, a darned good one, and not using it is simply irresponsible for breeders. But it is also irresponsible to not say do the test, keep on strip testing, because it is not perfect. As for Dr Gonto and when to begin, I can almost guarantee you he'd agree that while you should begin at LEAST by 3, the earlier the better. His protocol, 2003, says earliest is 3 yrs. But the Basenji health says 1.5 yrs old. Cara is only a year, already doing them. I'd hate for her to have it and me wait many many months til she turns 3 to catch it, or catch it because symptoms occur. Yeah I know… if it happens it usually happens to my dogs so I just feel better testing earlier, not later.

    That bothered me too, but I guess since the BBs didn't bother him he must have been a pretty resilient little b.
