[Dailydrool] Vacation packing

[Adrienne Gillespie]

Today, I go on vacation. Yesterday, I was in a flurry of packing. First 
I had to pack for the girls. They are staying in separate locations this 
trip. Lucy will stay at Sniff Dog Hotel, where she will have rooftop 
strolls. Fiona was going to stay there, then we had a little health 
scare. She will stay at the vet’s office instead. It won't be quite as 
exciting, but she sleeps most of the time anyway. I think she will get a 
lot of attention, though.

In their bags, they each get their blankie and enough food for the week 
I will be gone. Lucy’s bag will contain the training treats I use when 
she sees another dog (she's fear aggressive) and a nylabone. She likes a 
good chew from time to time. Fiona’s will include her ear drops and an 
am/pm pill container for her old lady meds (Dasaquin for arthritis, 
soloxine for her thyroid). I will also send along baby wipes because 
she’s prone to UTIs and keeping her downstairs clean seems to help.

This is the bittersweet part of vacation. I can look forward to the trip 
once I have them dropped off.
