Little Billie, just three sessions in! 🩷

We’ve been building confidence, encouraging independence, and practicing settling.

Last night, her family shared this sweet moment of Billie napping in her pen while they relaxed on the couch with Sookie, their cat.

Small moments, meaningful progress!

Spent some time with sweet little Billie today, and these two needed to know EVERYTHING. 😂

Dogs gather so much information through scent. Apparently, I brought home quite the story!

A Little Personal Update

Due to some unexpected medical circumstances within my family, my availability will be limited over the coming weeks.

While I’m unable to commit to my usual schedule right now, I recognize how important the early developmental weeks are for puppies. I’ll continue to consider inquiries from families with puppies between 8–16 weeks of age as circumstances allow.

Please continue to reach out! I’m still here and happy to hear from you, but my response times may be a little slower than usual. I sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding.

Thank you for your continued support. It truly means a lot.

RVA pet sitter friends: I’m looking to connect fairly quickly with an experienced pet sitter who may be able to help with my three dogs, potentially as soon as next week.

They each have very different personalities and needs, so I’m looking for someone experienced, dog-savvy, and comfortable with sensitive dogs. A force-free, low-stress approach is really important to me, as all three can be sensitive in different ways.

Because of some uncertainty in our family schedule right now, flexibility is especially important. Plans may come together on fairly short notice, so I’d love to find someone (or possibly a couple of people) I can get to know and have the dogs become comfortable with ahead of time.

I’m open to different care arrangements depending on the situation, staying in our home, care in the sitter’s home, or potentially separating the dogs between caregivers if that ends up being the best fit.

If this sounds like something you offer, or you know someone wonderful you’d trust, please PM me. Thank you so much! ❤️

I learn a little more about Buford every session. ❤️

Today’s discovery? Give this guy some sunny grass and he’s perfectly happy to settle in and watch the world go by.

Getting to know what each dog genuinely enjoys is part of the process, too.
