ISO somebody who is comfortable with dogs..we have 6! I only need help with 2 feedings. The dogs are well trained, sport dogs & livestock gaurdian dogs but will be penned up in the fenced backyard with doggy door access to an air conditioner garage during my leave. There are automatic water dispensers, toys and beds in the garage. The dogs are self regulating and wont need any other care than feedings. For the sake of simplicity I ask that they be scatter fed. It's more entertaining than being fed in their bowls and I will have pre-portioned food ready to just be thrown over the fence. Most of my absence only last 2 days but I occasionally leave for 2 weeks. I stock up all supplies, Deep clean all enclosures, & double up food/water dishes before I leave. It will be a 2 time daily visit to feed & water.
