📢🐾 IMPORTANT UPDATES FROM OUR CRAZY DOG HOUSE! 🐾

We have about 47 moving pieces happening at once, so there will be NO social media updates today or tomorrow! We hope to be back Saturday!

📸 You WILL still receive pictures and updates through your client app! Please use your app whenever possible for communication and bookings.

Our sweet Minnie Pearl has important medical testing today, and between appointments, dogs coming and going, and rescue responsibilities, things are a little wild around here!

🐶 We currently have TWELVE rescue dogs in our care! We normally have two or three, but overcrowding and the overwhelming number of dogs needing help have turned our house into a full-blown canine circus! 😂

🎄 HOLIDAY BOARDING ALERT! November and December are filling up FAST! If you need boarding for the holidays, please submit your reservations ASAP. Once we’re full, we’re FULL!

📌 PRICING REMINDER: New pricing and policy changes take effect January 1, 2027. Please read the bulletin in your client app!

Thank you for your patience while we juggle rescue dogs, boarders, appointments, and everything in between! ❤️

The dogs are still getting all their love, attention, and care. We just won’t be documenting their daily shenanigans for social media! 🐾💕

🐾 WE HAVE ANOTHER DOG-FRIENDLY BUSINESS TO ADD TO OUR LIST! 🐾

If you’re looking for someone to help with landscaping, yard cleanup, brush and tree trimming, planting, mulching, paver installation, painting, or minor construction projects, we have someone we’d love to recommend!

Meet Terrell Clark with Ground Force Landscape & Construction! And the best part? He’s DOG FRIENDLY! 🐶❤️

Now, if you’re anything like us, you know how frustrating it can be to have someone come to your house to do work and immediately act like your dogs are four-legged serial killers. Suddenly, you’re expected to lock everybody away, rearrange your entire household, or ship your dogs off somewhere because someone is terrified of a little barking and a few curious noses.

Listen, this is THEIR house. They live here. They pay absolutely no bills, contribute nothing financially, and somehow still run the entire damn property. 😂

That’s why we LOVE finding people who are comfortable around dogs and understand that they’re part of the family!

Terrell is actually Chino’s friend, and if you know Chino, you know that boy has opinions about EVERYTHING. So when Chino gives somebody his stamp of approval, we pay attention!

We’ve had nothing but wonderful experiences with Terrell. We trust him, we love him, and we feel completely comfortable recommending him to our fellow dog-loving households.

Of course, everybody should still make sure their dogs are safely managed while work is being done, but it’s nice knowing you don’t have to worry about someone being terrified just because your dog exists!

So if you need some work done around your property, give him a call and tell him Chino sent you! 🐾

Things were suspiciously calm at HOWA this morning, and quite frankly, I don’t know what the hell was going on. A few of the dogs attempted to get a wrestling match started, but apparently nobody was accepting applications for participation today. Every time somebody tried to fire up the chaos, somebody else shut that nonsense down.

We had a few random bursts of crackhead energy, a couple of halfhearted attempts at starting a backyard riot, and then everybody just stood around staring at me like I was the cruise director and they were waiting for the morning entertainment schedule.

Well, I hate to disappoint the furry freeloaders, but I am NOT the activities coordinator at Camp As***le. There are enough dogs in this yard to start their own circus, form a recreational sports league, and overthrow a small government. Surely to God they can figure out how to entertain themselves without requiring my participation.

I provide the accommodations, meals, supervision, and occasional referee services. I am NOT responsible for keeping 47 unemployed four-legged idiots entertained every waking moment.

Somebody chase somebody. Steal a toy. Start a game of tag. Do SOMETHING. Just don’t involve me because I have already fulfilled my daily obligation of standing outside watching y’all make questionable life choices.

Apparently today’s scheduled activity is staring at management until management loses her s**t. 😂

10/27/2026

JJ McShorty and Teddy are back at it, proving that size means absolutely nothing when it comes to being a professional troublemaker! 😂 These two have their own little wrestling league going, and neither one seems to realize they are in completely different weight classes. JJ brings the chaos, Teddy brings the attitude, and together they’re a whole lot of entertainment!

Brandy would like to file a formal complaint with Mother Nature because NOVEMBER is right around the corner, but apparently somebody forgot to tell October to stop acting like MAY! 😂☀️

According to Brandy, temperatures have absolutely NO BUSINESS getting above 70 degrees this time of year! She has already started growing her winter coat, preparing for chilly mornings, crisp fall walks, and the glorious retirement of summertime nonsense. Unfortunately, that winter coat does not come with a zipper, and when Indian summer decides to make an appearance, she’s stuck wearing her furry winter wardrobe in what feels like spring weather!

She said she did NOT spend all summer suffering through the heat just to have October pull this foolishness three days before November! 🤣

Thankfully, she had her walking buddies along for moral support today, but she would like everyone to know that she is officially requesting a refund on this weather and would appreciate Mother Nature getting her seasons back in order!

Brandy has spoken. Seventy degrees is the LIMIT, and she will not be negotiating! 🐾🍂

🐾 DAY 28,472 OF THE GREAT CCL LEASH RESTRICTION STANDOFF! 🐾

Okay, so it hasn’t actually been 28,472 days, but according to Chino, he’s been held hostage by this leash for approximately 76 years, and he would like to speak to an attorney. 😂

Negotiations remain at a complete standstill. His official position is “I will p*e on a leash, but I absolutely WILL NOT p**p on a leash!” Apparently, he believes his bowel movements are protected under the Constitution, and I am violating his civil liberties by requiring supervision.

And because this circus needed another act, crackhead Jacob decided to catch a lizard and parade around like he’d just taken down a 400-pound wildebeest on the African plains. Naturally, Chino witnessed this spectacular achievement and decided that if Jacob could catch a lizard, perhaps HE could catch a Luca and parade him around the yard!

SIR!!! YOU ARE ON CCL RESTRICTION! THERE WILL BE NO RECREATIONAL LUCA HUNTING! 🤦‍♀️🤣

Meanwhile, poor Luca is just trying to enjoy his afternoon without being turned into somebody’s emotional support hunting trophy.

So here we are. One dog staging a p**p strike, one dog operating an illegal lizard trafficking ring, and one tiny dog who apparently needs witness protection.

Life has officially gone to the dogs over here. I’ve lost control of the entire operation, and at this point, I’m just the unpaid parole officer holding the orange leash! 😂🐾

Well, since Jacob decided to act like a complete fool during their walk and scared all the littles away with his nonsense, we decided it was time for a little off-leash manners practice! 😂🐾

Apparently, the little dogs had collectively decided they had seen enough of Jacob’s shenanigans for one day and would prefer to walk themselves home, thank you very much!

So we turned the trip home into a training session, and these little nuggets did fantastic! Everybody stayed together, minded their manners, and made their way home like a tiny, well-organized neighborhood walking club.

Meanwhile, Jacob was still busy being Jacob, rolling around on the side of the road like he had absolutely no responsibilities in life. 🤦‍♀️

I swear, sometimes the smallest dogs are the biggest adults in the group, and the biggest dog is the one who needs the most supervision! 😂❤️🐾

🚨 BREAKING NEWS FROM QUEEN JACKY’S HOUSE! 👑🐾

Apparently, Queen Jacky has decided that the belly rub tax we were already paying just to get her royal behind off the couch was no longer sufficient. Inflation has officially hit the kingdom, and Her Majesty has announced an immediate tax increase!

The new tax requirements now include belly rubs, ear scratches, AND neck rubs before she will even consider getting off her throne to go for a walk. And judging by the look on her face, she is absolutely NOT interested in negotiating. 😂

I attempted to explain that we have a schedule to keep and other dogs to walk, but Queen Jacky has made it very clear that my scheduling conflicts are not her problem.

As you can see, I eventually paid the increased taxes, and Her Majesty finally blessed us with her presence on the sidewalk.

At this point, I’m not sure if I’m her dog walker or an unpaid employee working off an ever-growing debt of affection.

The Queen has spoken. Pay your taxes, peasants! 👑🐾😂

🐾 Apparently, Miss Ivy has developed some VERY high standards for her walking entourage! 😂👑

After all the visitors she’s had lately, this girl has clearly gotten a little spoiled! Today, she was informed that she would only have TWO walking partners, and let me tell you, she was NOT impressed.

Ivy said, “Excuse me?! TWO?! How is that supposed to look to my fans?! I have a reputation to maintain! Yesterday I had an entire entourage, and today you expect me to parade around the neighborhood with only two escorts? What happened to my popularity?!” 🤣

Apparently, we’ve created a monster. This girl went from needing convincing to go for a walk to expecting a full security detail, a personal assistant, and a cheering section every time she leaves the house.

Don’t worry, Ivy. Your fans still love you. Even if your entourage has suffered some unfortunate staffing cuts. 😂🐾❤️

10/27/2026

Apparently, the morning temperatures have officially reached the point where every dog at HOWA has decided that the closer they stand to me, the warmer they’ll be. Which is all fine and dandy until these four-legged hooligans decide that my personal space is also the designated WWE wrestling arena.

We’ve barely gotten the day started, and I’ve already been taken out at the knees once, body-slammed FIVE times, and somehow lost a shoe. I’m just trying to stand here and supervise, but apparently I’ve been promoted to human space heater, traffic cone, and unwilling participant in the Backyard SmackDown Championship.

And the best part? Not a single one of these little troublemakers has apologized. They just look at me like I’m the one who should know better than to stand in the middle of THEIR wrestling ring.

At this rate, I’m going to need knee replacements, a helmet, and a referee whistle before lunchtime.

If this is how today is going to go, I’m clocking out and going back to bed. Y’all can supervise yourselves! 😂
