Craziness At The Inn & Our Girls

What’s up guys,

I have been working like crazy lately because we have had two girls quit (not that I care they sucked anyway lol) Anyway. I'm gonna try to start doing a post every week just to sum up the week and all.

This week has been kinda crazy. We had a dog come in that literally barked nonstop for all 10ish hours we were open. He came to us because he had gotten kicked out of the last boarding facility for…… BARKING TOO MUCH LOL. That child would not shut up. We tried everything. We tried putting calming spray on his blankets, we tried putting lavender on his blanket, giving him calming pills, leaving him outside longer, feeding him more, and we even tried a bark collar (last hope) and NONE of it worked. Thankfully the child went home Thursday. Then Friday we had a psycho come in. He came in and tried to bite the worker (We’ll call her Tats because she has a lot of tattoos), he tried to bite his owner too. Tats is kinda new so she still let him come in and put him in his kennel. When Boss Lady got there, Tats told her about what the dog, who we will call ‘Psycho’, had done and Boss Lady was like ok let me try. Boss Lady always tries to work with the crazy ones. She said he was fine in the yard but when she went to put him back up, he lunged at her and tried to attack her. Boss Lady is leaving for about a week so she couldn’t let a crazy dog like that be there while she was away. We also have a girl who works here that is severely accident prone. (More about that later). So Boss Lady had to call the lady and she had to come pick him back up. This is the first time that I know of that we have done that. Even ‘Satan’ who hates EVERYONE but Boss Lady is allowed to stay. ‘Satan’ is the one I talked about last time that I had to feed with a spoon because she will attack me if I try to go in her room. Boss Lady leaves in the morning to go on vacation. Luckily we have an easy week while she is gone.  Now to talk about the girls who work with me.

- Girl #1: We will call her ‘AP’ for accident prone. This woman had gotten hurt SO many times now that I have lost count. She had been bitten by a dog at work, stabbed herself with a box cutter, been bitten by her own dogs, cut open her hand at work… the list is never ending. It’s an ongoing joke now that she needs to get a discount at the hospital now after all the stuff she has done. I personally don’t like AP. She is the one who trained me when I first started working here and honestly she is horrible at training. She cuts a lot of corners and it makes the trainee’s work suffer because of it.  She trained one other girl and did her the same way so now I train everyone. I don’t know why they keep her around but it’s not my choice.
- Girl #2: ‘Tats’ I LOVE ‘Tats’. I trained her and she is just so nice and works hard. There are some minor issues with what she does but she is kinda new and when I was new there was issues with me too so. She is older than me. She is probably in her 30’s. She is just really easy to get along with. She is my favorite.
- Girl #3: ME lol. I am accident prone too but not as bad as ‘AP’. I have cut my fingers and palm a couple of times on our cables to the metal doggie doors. The most common with me is concussions. I have had so many. I bang my head on everything. I hit it on our two covered runs almost daily. I once bashed my head on our ‘small yard’ gate so hard I had an indention on my head for 3 days. The worse one was when I burnt my leg with our steamer. I was in a hurry one day and wasn’t paying attention and hit the button to spray the steam while it was pointed at my leg. I have a scar now. We use a steamer to clean the kennels once dogs go home.


Well that it for this post. I may write another one and post in tonight too, I don’t know yet. If you have any comments or questions leave them below. Thanks guys, BYE.
