Doger- Richard will have Doger until July 10
Food is in one of two aluminum trash can outside kitchen door. Please make sure that doors are closed to studio. Terrie will be coming to work in the studio and she doesn't want to get bit by Doger. When people are home, Doger can be tied up in his house under the stairs in the entry- leash is there, or if workers are around and you think he might get less bored you can tie him up on the front porch by the door- leash is there. If he is being to much trouble, friends are here that doger doesn't know and he is barking, you can close him into the back bathroom. When leaving Doger home alone, don't tie him up (dangerous). You can leave him in the entry, close all the exit doors or leave him upstairs, close all the exit doors (bedroom back door, kitchen door, living room door). At night time after neighborhood dog walkers are all gone, you can let Doger out for a while to patrol for deer. Periodically, throwing the ball for him and making him obey your commands will keep him sane. Doger goes nuts if he hears delivery trucks with that low muffler sound. Guys in uniforms are also targets for him. Doger calms down quicker if you go look at what he is barking at and then let him now that "thats enough, good dog" he is now offf duty and you will take care of whatever problem he thinks it out there. You can almost always distract him with food or a ball.

Cats- Food is in one of two aluminum trash can outside kitchen door. Doris- White with black, always wants to come in the house,Peggy- Grey with white, hunter

Snakes- mainly just water is needed. The smaller snake can have water poured through their lids without having to open them. If it makes you more comfortable you can use the cardboard to separate yourself from the larger snakes to add water to their dishes.
Beth may come feed snakes once- she should schedule that with Jerimiah. all 3 snakes ate large rats on June 21. They can go a month without feeding just fine. They do need water.

Birds- food and water almost daily. Watch the pecking order in the largest cage. Please make sure all the cage doors are secure

Plants- handwatering needed on lower patio , around front door, maybe a bit outside bedroom window
Irrigation stations should be on automatic schedule. Map of stations in garden shed
