More animals in the Lambregts household... Since a few months we have occasionally been looking after the neighbours' dogs, in general just during daytime. Obviously the dogs like it, as they are sometimes confused which house to enter. The neighbours are happy as well, as they asked us to look after the dogs for a whole week, while they would be enjoying a holiday in Turkey. The dogs are very well behaved, an unlikely pair (large black & small white) and like the attention from the girls. The only issue is a lack of fitness, as they generally do short walks only. So we started them on a bootcamp, and took them to the beach twice. These were lessons in pacing yourself, as Britt (large & black) found out. She likes running after a tennis ball, but only manages a few times, before getting completely out of breath. But enjoying it tremendously.....
Her little sister Fleur likes sitting on peoples laps, so the first thing she does when someone sits down is looking at you with sad eyes until she is allowed up. In summary it is the ideal way to have pets, by the time it starts to become routine they go back to their owners!
