Plot is lost! - Instructions to my Holiday Horse Cover!

[Chavhorse]

Vardi
If it is red hot rub Vardi’s scars (hip and Head) with Aloe Gel (in my tack box) to take off the dry skin and any scabs. I normally do daily if it is very sunny and every 2 days if it is overcast.

Sunscreen (tube by field) into scars and on nose every day even if over cast.
Every 2 - 3 days put a smear of Aloe Gel onto the proud flesh on his foot.

Hate to ask but can you keep an eye on his backside as he tends to get dried **** all the way down his legs. Wet sponge and a finger nail tend to do the job…..again sorry!

My husband says there is no hope!

 

[MrsMozartletoe]

Rofl - nope, no hope.

Happy holidays

 

[Chavhorse]

Mrs M she is moving in to look after the dogs as well as the horse below are the instructions for the dogs)) really no hope is there!


Feeding

Biscuits are in the blue tub in the kitchen each dog gets 1.5 measures of biscuit. Tins are in the right hand side bottom cupboard each dog gets a third of a can.

Molly & Max eat in the kitchen put Muttley’s bowl by the clock in the living room. Try not to open the fridge door when he is eating as it freaks him out!

When you are out
When Fen is coming (1st week) lock the dogs into the front room
Take the bin and put it in the downstairs toilet
Make sure the Baby Gate to the Dining Room is closed and the board up against it on the dining room side (max is a great climber!)
leave 1 red chew and 3 biscuits (in the tubs in the right hand bottom cupboard) on the counter on the right had side of the cooker
Give each of the dogs a few small biscutis on the sofa when you leave them.
Double lock the main lock on the front door (Not the bottom lock) (Muttley can open the front door if it is not locked)
Fen will leave the dogs with the run of the house when she brings them back

Second week when Fen is on holiday
Leave dogs with the run of the house
Trudi will come in each morning and spend some time with them
Mitchell will come in at 3pm each day and spend some time with them
Bin needs to go in the downstairs toilet or Max will empty it!….Ditto Baby Gate ro Max will climb over into the Dining room.

Night time
Dogs will want to sleep in the room with you, Mutt and Max sleep on the sheepskin rugs Molly will tend to come up and sleep on the end of the bed if you let her.
Kick them all out last thing at night watch Max who has the tendency to not do anything then insist on going out at 3 in the morning!

Walking
Fen will collect the dogs up at 9am and bring them back at 1pm Mon - Fri. If you want to take them for a walk, Max and Molly are easier on the Halti collars hanging on the hook in the hall. DO NOT LET THEM OFF THE LEADS or Mutt and Molly will disappear for hours

During the second week when Fen is on vacation both Mitchell and Trudi will be coming in to let them run in the garden during the day.

WORD OF WARNING - Muttley can be a snappy little ******* do not try and grab his collar to move him and just beware a bit with him!

Vet
Card for the Vet is on the whiteboard in the kitchen he is based in Oude Wettering. Dogs Pet Passports are in the container on the White Board.

Cleaner
Trudi will come in and clean on Monday and Friday mornings during the second week she will come in each morning.

Vardi
If it is red hot rub Vardi’s scars (hip and Head) with Aloe Gel (in my tack box) to take off the dry skin and any scabs. I normally do daily if it is very sunny and every 2 - 3 days if it is overcast.

Every 2 - 3 days put a smear of Aloe Gel onto the proud flesh on his foot.

[Flibble]

Good Grief I hope you are paying her hansomely

 

[inkiboo]

Much better to leave direct instructions, than leave it up to someone's 'initiative'

[Chavhorse]

I am available for house sitting whenever you need!!

I was trying to make up for the instruction to get the dried s**t off the horses legs with her finger nails

 

[Wobblywibble]

Just an observation, but not a critiscism each to his own and what works for you works etc etc, but doesn't this just show how animals can rule your life??

Don't think I ever had to leave such detailed instructions for child care, though not sure how well the finger nail pooh removal treament, not matter how effective would have gone down with Granny.

All joking aside I do this job and it is a godsend when people leave such comprehensive instructions. Well done you!
