- Captain and Moose are yellow lab brothers and even though they're older now, they still behave as puppies and can often get competitive with each other.
- Going on walks requires the ability to control two dogs at the same time and to monitor them both from eating things they shouldn't on the walk and keeping them from chasing after squirrels together.
- They both need a ton of exercise so going to a park to throw the ball for them was essential to them being well behaved and calm when returning to Penny's home.
- I call Captain and Moose in need of emotional support dogs, so giving them cuddles, pets and love is necessary to their happiness and well being. Selfishly I very much enjoy this process as well!
- A little something I always like to do is send pictures of Captain and Moose and all other dogs I sit for to the owners to show how happy and taken care of their furry family is! Just the little things that help the owner relax and trust that I am taking the best care of their loved one.
