Q&A PT. 1

Hey guys what is up,

I was reading a post today about work stories of a kennel worker because I need ideas on what to write about and there were some questions on there that I thought I’d share my answers to and also some questions I made up.

Q1: How many dogs fit in our building? A: We have 11 kennels. 1 is a double ‘run’ as we call it and two of them are covered. We also have 9 pens and 2 creates. So is we are slammed full we can house around 30 dogs. This number really depends on how many dogs are in each kennel and pen. We have had 4 dogs in 1 run before so it’s hard to say an exact number.

Q2: Funniest thing that has happened to me while at work? A: This one is hard because there is so much stuff. One really funny thing that happened was with 2 of our regulars. We had a huge tree cut down and it fell onto part of our fence so we had like a 3-4 foot gap in the fence and our regulars were going home and one of them ran to the gate which was right beside the gap and was jumping up and down and didn’t realize there was a hole there. I eventually had to go pick her up and show her the hole and then she ran and got into the car to go home. Her mom and I couldn’t stop laughing.

Q3: Hardest day I’ve had? A: Hmm this one has 2 answers. Stress wise the hardest was when Sr. Barks-A-lot was there and would bark all day. Emotion wise the hardest… wasn’t really at work I had just got home from work and got on Facebook and saw where one of our seniors and my favorites had been put to sleep. Her name was Ruthie. She was the sweetest thing ever and I loved her. Also the hardest day emotion wise was the day after my 16 year old Boston Terrier Bella passed away. When I went in there was a Boston there who acted just like her and I went into her pen and hugged her and cried for about 5 minutes. The whole rest of the time she was there I would just love on her. I miss my ole’ lady.

Q4: Favorite and Least favorite type of dog? A: Favorite would be: Pits ( wow shocker there haha) and yorkies maybe. Specifically, these 3 that come in. They are all like tea cups I think because they are just tiny. 1 of them I call my shoulder puppy because she constantly sits on my shoulder and the other two are twins who I call my squirrel babies.  Least favorite would be: Labs and Dobermans. Now I don’t have anything against either of those breeds. I used to have a black lab named Muck ( my little brother loved Bob The Builder at the time). However, those are the breeds that don’t listen the most or are just the craziest.

Q5: Most popular and Most Unique names? A: Most popular: Bella, Buddy, Maggie, Happy Oddist/Most Unique:  Kudzu (yes like the plant), Isis (yes you read that right ISIS.), Toby Keith, Repo, Chameka, Drogo, Biggles, Ricochet, Struggle, Beans, and Cha cha & Lasha. Lol The Weird is never ending.

Q6: Favorite Dogs? A: Ok I’m going to limit myself to 10 because I could go on and on and on. So in no certain order my favorites are: Kudzu, Beatrice, Hannah & Chloe, Baxter & Millie, Poe, Bella L. Gryffin, Dallas, Daphne, and Repo. Like I said I could keep going but that’s just 10 of them.

Q7: Scariest Moments? A:  There are so many. Once I post this, I’ll make a whole post about this.

Ok thanks guys for reading if there is anymore questions that i didn't answer just ask me below. I will talk to you all later Byyyyyyee
