Special Note: None of the dogs, especially "GRACIE" is NOT to be left in the house alone unsupervised!!!!

If Gracie gets into stuff in the yard, or tries to eat #2, yell "HOSE" and attempt to grab the hose. She stops instantly!!!

#1. PLEASE CHECK THE DOG CRATES EVERY VISIT, SEE IF THEY HAD AN ACCIDENT IN THEM, OR, THREW UP IN THEM. SOMETIMES THEY DO THIS!!! BY THE WAY, (GRACIE AND TRACEY ROLL POOP UP IN THEIR BLANKETS).

#2. PLEASE WASH All 3 water bowls and all 4 food bowls with hot soapy water EVERY night before you leave. We had a horrible ant problem and cannot go thru it again. Thanks!! With Gracie eating "later" at night you can put her food in the front of her crate on the floor and then wash the bowl. (BEDTIME VISIT).

#3. Please refill water bowls on a regular basis while you are here.

#4. Lindsay is AGAIN obcessed with the bunny rabbits and paces back and forth around the garden, shed and around the wood pile!!! Takes her forever to go potty sometimes...use the time to play with Gracie to wear her out.

#5. "Ruby" will want to go inside to get into the other dog's crates/food. Make sure she goes potty, she hangs at the door thinking she can get food. Please keep her outside with you unless its bitter cold out. Thanks!

#6. When "Gracie" and "Tracey" are out KEEP a closer watch on them!!. Tracey takes awhile to "go" so give her time...she investigates the yard inch by inch!!!

Please play ball with "Gracie" for awhile to wear her out.

#7. AND...after you play with her, please remember to let "Gracie" go potty AGAIN right before you get ready bring them in. (Just tell her to go, she will..or she will wet her crate!!!)

Please do not leave for the night without all of them going potty!!! There is too long a time span until the morning from their dinnertime trip out.

#8. Puppy Biscuit time~!!

After all their "play time"...when you are ready to go, and Gracie has gone back out for a 2nd potty trip... crate them...get the biscuits ready, turn OFF all the lights (except the hall one so you can see to go upstairs...THEN give them their biscuits. Leave right away afterwards or else Gracie will start screeching!!

"LINDSAY" gets ONE LARGE PUPPY BONE ALSO AT BEDTIME.

"GRACIE" also gets ONE LARGE PUPPY BONE but it must be broken in 1/2. Watch her eating it so she doesn't choke.

EVEN IF GRACIE AND TRACEY HAVEN'T EATEN, THEY STILL GET THEIR BISCUITS BEFORE BED.
