My house is now on the market. There is a For Sale sign at the bottom of my driveway - cunningly placed so as to avoid anyone else reversing into the ditch (it didn't take very long to get the Real Estate agents car out). I'll be having my first home open this Sunday, which has led to a flurry of cleaning windows, vacuuming up precious piles of French Bulldog fur etc etc
The agent rang on Tuesday afternoon, he had some people who wanted a look around the property. It was short notice, but I said "OK, I'm home at the moment, it'll be fine." Of course after wandering around the block, they had to come inside the house, which meant I had to corral the dogs, as they are very enthusiastic about visitors. Unfortunately Rolli believes having his harness on = going out, but it was too hot for walking*. So we stood in the shade near the fishpond and waited, and Rolli bounced up & down on the spot, and screeched weird, banshee like screeches, so we all knew he was NOT PLEASED! Luckily it didn't take too long for the inspection, as Rolli is an old dog, and he needed a little lie down after all that excitement.
* The charming flat face of the French Bulldog means that they can overheat very easily, so we have to be very careful in warm weather. Too hot for walking is not really hot at all.
The first time I put a leash on my on my bully/red healer he **screamed** and screamed like we were beating him. I was mortified! We were standing on a busy road and people were staring at us. Dogs are fun!!!
