HI. I'm going away for 2 months in summer and am looking for someone to watch my dog Wally for one of those months, either July or August (or part of both).
He's a real character, very, very social and loves to play.
He's a mini-pin cross with something else maybe chiwuawua not sure Smile
Of course I'll provide food and would be more than willing to watch your dogs/cats in return some time, if you have them....
I usually give some payment too but don't want that to be the incentive so will add that its just a token (or I'll shout you to a nice lunch/dinner).
Anwway,....don't have any pics on this computer, but here's a weew video my kiwi friend took of him when he dogsat for me last year....
PM if you would like some doggy company this summer Smile

Hello!

I might be able to help. I don't think I'll be away during that time, but I'll have to check with my husband later and get back to you. We've got a Daejeon pup (Delilah) who's friendly as can be, and would love a canine friend for a few weeks. We have two cats as well, and whilst one has decided she has no time for dogs and ignores ours completely, the other has literally attached himself at the hip to Delilah, so I'm sure Wally would be fine. The apartment's huge and there are nice fenced in gardens to walk him in.

Anyway, I've heard lots about Wally from Nicole ( and the now AWOL Basil) and would love to help you out. We might be looking for a cat sitter around November time, too.

I'll PM you later if husboat says yes.



Very Happy

Hi Sine!!! Wow, that sounds great. Funny thing is, I've heard so much about you too, seems strange that we still haven't met Confused Ah, I also know Delilah, she's a little munchkin for sure Smile
Well, Wally is fine with cats, although he'll be a bit silly with them for the first 5 minutes but after that they lose interest in each other. Anyway, he'd never, ever bite, but will probably try and play. TimV. said he'd probably be able to look after Wally for half the time, and if you would be able for the other half, that'd be SO great. I think Tim is flexible, so we could sort that out later. Perhaps we could do a trial run for a night first, see if it will work out, whadya think? And of course, I'd be more than happy to return the favor in November, I'll def. be here then.....
Thank you so much, I'm looking forward to meeting you. My no. is 010-3088-7175
Perhaps this should have been a pm... Wink

Ariba! Full steam ahead, we can look after him for you, no problem. The trial run is probably a good idea, even though im sure it'll be fine. The friendly cat is more than used to delilah running after him, jumping on him, divebombing his legs, nibbling on his ears etc. And our mama cat is an expert percher on high surfaces. I've got next Friday off (you too?) and I might be coming down to Seoul anyway, with Delilah, so they could meet then! Just give me a yell when you're free. Very Happy

There are some restaurants near my place that seem to be running some sort of dog shelter as a side business, I've heard they actually pay you to take care of your dog as well. Laughing

Hilarious. And original. No, I've never heard this "joke" before Rolling Eyes

Bet you get all the ladies with wit like that.

Nice one dickhead.

Dull, unoriginal and you supposedly bear a remarkable resemblance to a Brick- wow what a combination, you're a really lucky guy.....
