today at work a man brought a pug in on a leash and that pug was so excited andĀ happy to see me it was as if we were old friends whoĀ havent been in contact in 7 years i felt so loved in that moment
today a bassettĀ hound came in and waggedĀ her tail so furiously all ofĀ her loose skin started to jiggle and she was so pumped to see me i want more dogs to come into my store they make my life whole and worthwhile
Iām so glad this came back cause a golden retriever named Milly came in today who putĀ her paws on my register counter and wanted to sayĀ hi to me and I lovedĀ her so much and I scratchedĀ her ears and she gave me that classic dopey dog smileĀ
yesterday a girl came in withĀ her boyfriend and inĀ herĀ hand was a tiny tan colored dog that she told me was a chihuahua/pekingese mix andĀ heĀ had a severe underbite and one little canine tooth was poking out andĀ his ears were like bent at the tips and i immediately commented onĀ how amazingĀ he was and she goes omg thanks do you wanna petĀ him and i was like there is literally nothing more i want to do while being on the clock right now than to pet this incredible tiny dog andĀ he was so sweet and licked myĀ hand andĀ his name was spikeĀ
yesterday these people came in and put a blanket into one of our shopping baskets and it started to move and i was like omg whats in there and they set it down on the counter and the blanket kept moving and the suspense was so good like is it gonna be a cat is it gonna be a ferret maybe a lizard and thenĀ the smallest chihuahua ive ever seen in my life poppedĀ her littleĀ head out and licked my finger and i diedĀ
A baby german shepherd named Jonathan came in tonight and since i was on the sales floor and not behind a counter i say to the owner omg can i pet this angel and they were like yeah of course and i crouched down and Jonathan ran into my arms and almost tripped over his puppy feet it was 12/10
TODAY a german shepherd named london grabbed one of our lanterns off the shelf and was carrying it around and the owner was like,Ā ālondon no, weāre not getting thatā and gave him the merchandise she was buying instead and he carried it to me and dropped it on the counter at my register and i could have criedĀ
I want everyone to know both London and Jonathan (Jonnie) came in the other day on the same day. Jonnie is much larger since the last time I saw him but still sweet and still acts like a pup, he barked at something in our footwear department. London still likes to carry things and put his paws up on my register to say hello, he carried the insoles his owner bought out the door for her. Also thanks for the notes, itās nice to see so many people appreciate dogs on here. Another reminder, I see a lot of dogs because I work in a sporting goods store in a strip mall next door to a Petco and we absolutely allow dogs in our store. I live in a mountain town in Colorado and dogs are common here because there are lots of fun outdoor stuff to do with them.Ā
A sheltie in a Petco shopping cart came in yesterday and her name was Sadie and she was so excited to say hi that she jumped out of the cart, onto my register counter, but she missed and Mufasaād her way to the floor, but she was okay. The owner just let her sit on the counter and she was very well behaved and she gently smelled every item I scanned and also my hand. She was obsessed with her neck being scratched.Ā
today a black lab name paxton came in off leash and he jiggled his way into our back room because the door was open and i yelled He Is Employed! and told his owner that weād be happy to hire him and then eventually he made his way up to the front by himself and into the register area behind the counter and now heās my new managerĀ
my boss sent me this picture she took from the window at work today after i left. its not a dog, but it is a goat wearing a cowboy hat.Ā
today a 12 week old dichromatic pitbull puppy named Spot was so tired that he was splayed out on our tile flooring, all four legs sticking out while his people tried on shoes. i asked to pet him and he wagged his tail and rolled over so i could scratch his belly
Today my boss found a lost little Australian shepherd puppy without a collar running around the parking lot and caught her and brought her in the store and I played with her on my lunch break and she was so cute and so sweet and was probably no older than like 9 weeks. Eventually her people came and claimed her. Her name is Panda and sheās in the process of being trained as a service dog for an elderly veteran with one leg.
today a bengal kitten named strider came in and he licked my finger. hes not a dog but hes is very importantĀ
