Capstone Project: Day 8

Time spent: 3 Hours
Total time: 19 Hours

Today at Muttville, there were a lot of new dogs that were mostly small and medium sized. The loft that the dogs are in is starting to change because many supplies have been brought in and also the layout of the loft looks different from the first time i went there. I feel that every time i go to Muttville, i get attached to a dog easily and I have one dog in particular that i spend my hours with. Blarney is a terrier mix that is 14 years old. He is such a sweet and welcoming dog, I walked in and Blarney ran to me and started jumping and whimpering when he saw me. I automatically knew that this was the dog that i had to take for a walk and get to know more. Blarney is a fast runner and likes to keep at a steady pace when he walks. It wasn't as difficult as walking this other dogs because he doesn't tug or walk really slow. After walking Blarney I washed the water bowls and refilled them with clean water. There is a room full of harness's that needs to be sorted out so i spend a rough 30 minutes sorting it out. Lastly, i went down to the laundry room, took out the clean blankets and loaded another batch of blankets. Muttville only gets the laundry room on Wednesday because they share it with the Family rescue dog center and the ASPCA. I look forward to learning more about the adoption part of Muttville and seeing more dogs come in. It is fascinating to learn about the history of the dogs, so I would like to learn more about the background of a dog next time.
