Default In a bit of a bind

Hello everyone,

For Spring Break my girlfriend is headed to the UK, so my roomie is going to be watching the dog for her. I cannot watch him when I go home to South Florida as my grandfather has emphyzema and the pooch will surely cause a reaction with his breathing.

Unfortunately my roomie is headed to NY from Thursday - Tuesday (March 6th - 11th). I need someone to watch my pup on Saturday and Sunday as I will be workin the NHRA Lucas Oil event.

His name is Lyric and he is a 5 month old Siberian Husky and weighs about 27LBS. He is crate-trained and listens to many commands. I would be willing to compensate you $25 a day for your troubles. All you have to do is take him out (he sits by the door when he has to go) and feed him and give him some love. He is 100% friendly and is great around kids.

Preferably looking for someone around the Orlando area.

Thanks in advance,
Dana

Here is a pic of him:

I actually do not know how he would react around cats as I don't believe he has ever seen one. La Sombra, if you are interested in watching him let me know. I won't let you turn the dog into a blood thirsty beast though

If you were needing help up here, I have a friend who does this.
She is getting ready to buy an old horse farm and turn it into a
no questions asked abadoned animal shelter. As well as kenneling
pets while their parents are out of town.
I saw a commercial yesterday about Pet Smart having a Doggie
Motel or something like it. I can't remember exactly what it was
called. If I see it again, I'll post it up.

I'll contact Petsmart and check out their facility. I'd rather have him stay with a private person. He'll be a lot better off there.

Okay, seriously few questions

Potty trained? I'm assuming it is by your comment of standing by the door.
Does the dog bark? I have small children. One year old and 4 year old. I DON'T want to be up all night long with a dog barking.
How do you want to transport the puppy? you come to me, or I go to you?
From when until when exactly?
Are you sure that he won't eat kitties? They are getting REALLY annoying.........

10-4, Wife had just said that it was okay with her, that's why I had brought it back up. Glad that you have someone to watch him.

Jason, if you really want to get rid of the cats I can always bring the African Lion hunter over. Sadie really hates cats.

LOL. I was thinking the same thing about my dog but dummy would probably stare at them when he caught them.
