We are officially a fleet. Archie is pretty excited about it. ❤️

The old poo truck (the Escape) has been adorned with magnets, and my own craft creations these last few years. I have loved having my own personal touch, but thought it time to put a more professional look on our truck. Big thanks to Deb for designing the layout and installing the decals. She has a great team and great prices!

Even at 7 years in this biz, when I see a new client has signed up for services, my heart does a happy dance. I feel so abundantly blessed that in this great big world, and in a growing industry-that when someone searches the internet for this service, they choose us. I am forever grateful for our amazing clients, for their support, patience, and kindness. I don't know how I got so lucky.

Coleman won't take any of our dogs to the vet. He thinks that they won't like him if he takes them someplace they don't want to go. I can't really blame him because it took longer for our dogs to bond with him than me ... it took Gandalf nearly a year. With Gabby's illness, though, we think she connected that sometimes when Mommy took her to the vet she came home feeling better. Whenever she didn't feel good, she would come to me and kind of give me a look. Just as she did this last Saturday. Usually our rides home together were of celebration. We'd stop for a pup cup she didn't have to share with her brothers-or a few french fries. Today I went to pick up her ashes to bring her home for the last time. I couldn't stomache a pup cup or fries to enjoy in her honor today, but I will share some with the boys on our next outing. This sure is hard, but loving her for the time we got with her was worth it.🐾

Gabby's illness had required a lot of care over these last 2 years. And I want to thank Yellow Dog Veterinary Clinic and MedVet Indianapolis and Dr. Owen's internal medicine team for helping to keep her with us longer and maintaining a good quality of life for her. I want to thank the team at MedVet yesterday for staying on past their shift to complete Gabby's journey with us, and for the girls at the front desk that watched our other 2 fur babies while we were with Gabby. They really went above and beyond.

Her care had been expensive, and at times cumbersome ... she urinated frequently, often not making it outdoors. She was great at using p*e rugs we had placed all over the house, but the washing machine was always running. She'd wake us up at least 4 times a night to potty cause she'd try so hard to make it outside so she could get a treat. I had started just giving her a treat if she p*ed on a p*e rug-she loved her treats. Medicine dispensing required timing and consistency and she had an internal alarm that reminded me when it was pill time-no matter what I was doing. My daily work schedule was planned around her care, and I feel blessed my business allows me this freedom.

She barked almost incessantly, and really only liked us-which I think is why she loved us so fiercely and we her. We got all her sweet side, and everyone else got her sassy.

I sat this morning thinking of all the things we wouldn't have to do anymore, and the money we wouldn't have to spend. I thought it might make me feel relieved, maybe even a little better. Well, it doesn't and I'd have done it all for another dozen years if it would have kept her well and kept her with us. I wouldn't trade any of it for the time we did have with her. Rest peacefully little girl.💔

My nerves are shot! Car ran a red light yesterday and hit the car right in front of me. Two accidents today literally right next to me. I about got hit 3 times today, and had I not been paying attention on a roundabout-I would have probably been decapitated by a semi. I guess I should feel lucky. It's crazy out there🤪

It's been kind of a rough few weeks business-wise. Although "busy" is a good thing-it's been kind of hectic, running around like a chicken with its head cut-off kinda busy. I was cleaning up some documents out of my Drive and came across something I wrote back in 2019 ... guess I was feeling a bit of the same way then. No matter how crazy it gets, though, I wouldn't trade having this business for anything in the world 🤪💩🐾❤️

Wilting leaves on houseplants
Unfinished cups of hot tea
A layer of dust...everywhere!

Books left unread
Crafts unfinished
No make-up and hair-a-mess days are plenty

Family time missed
Sad puppy eyes at my back door
Yoga-Booty-Ballet? I can’t remember when

Dream big, bigger, biggest
Vision boards and ask for or you won’t receive it
Pod-casts to earn my happy, dig for my goals, be grateful

“She Used to be Mine”, my anthem now, on constant loop
Signs along the way that remind me my Why
Paths crossed with souls like mine at just the right time

A sore arm, frozen fingers, a never-ending runny nose
Is that doo-doo or mud? I no longer know
Boots and scoops all over my garage floor

All of this beautifully decorates the path to my dreams.
