Billy & Buddy or Doggie for a Day


April 22, 2013

Buddy
Our campground is a pet friendly park as evidenced by all the dogs and a couple of cats who come with their owners.



Now, sometimes a stray appears at the park.  Sunday evening as I was closing the shop a young hound came up the road.  I called Billy, ‘night manager’, for a solution. 

Sunday evening:  Johanna and Izzy, Mocha’s humans, provided a bowl of kibble for the evening.

The dog, now named Buddy, slept outside our trailer.  You think our cat would let him in?  Think again!


Monday:  Billy takes Buddy to work with him.  Buddy loves to ride in the cart, help Billy with chores, and even rode in the wheelbarrow.  Realizing we could not keep Buddy and some missed him, I called animal control. 

Off to work

 As the day proceeded, all the campers got involved with Buddy, now called Buddy the Wonder Dog.  




Richard and Valle provided kibble for the afternoon meal, his last meal before he left us.  Everyone hoped he could stay but we knew it was not possible.

It was a treat to have a hound for a day.

 All the best to Buddy in his forever home.
