dog sitting vent and advice welcome

This has just made me so upset for you it brings tears to my eyes. Having to deal with your sick husband and injured pups and all this mess to clean up. Thank God, your son and his wife can help you. Your neighbor is a horrible person. If he was any kind of decent human being, he would offer to pay for damages. If you paid that dude up front, I would ask for your money back!

I am just so sorry you are having to deal with this. I do hope your husband will get well soon and your babies..

Sorry to hear all that your husband has to go through all this, so much added stress on you. Try to stay clam, hard as it may be. Wonderful the son and wife are helping you out. It's a nasty clean up job but a silent sign of love and concern coming from the son and his wife. Keeping you and your family and of course the fur babies in my prayers to give you strength to keep calm and get you through this horrific ordeal. (((hugs)))

I really can't add to what everyone has so kindly said to you that can be any better support than they all have been but I just wanted to say I was so relieved to hear you have a nice,clean motorhome in your driveway to move into. Please take care of yourself too and rest and if you are a believer turn this all over to Him and trust He will help you through this in His own strength. So sorry this all had to happen for you.

I know there's already so much going on, and I'm not trying to overwhelm you, so I would have your son-in-law maybe take care of this for you: file a police report. As soon as possible. In fact, see if you can get police out before you're done cleaning up. Have them take a full report. They'll probably take their own photos of the damage. This will be a huge help to you legally when it's time to pursue legal action.

Just so sorry for all of this, I can imagine how infuriating this must be. Keep doing what you're doing. You're busy enough, and that'll help direct your anger positively. Keep away from this neighbor. It wouldn't be unlikely that he'll say something that sparks you and you don't need even more anger to deal with.

Prayers and healing thoughts are being sent to you, your hubby, your furbabies and home. Get in that motorhome! Hope it's plugged in, so you'll have heat/ac ready to go. Get some rest when you can.

/hugs

Oh my gosh! I would have called that guy more than just a dumb a**!
I don't know how some people can so freakin' irresponsible!

I hope your DH gets well soon.

I agree. You probably didnt think to take pictures of the house when it was a mess did you, or the condition of well EVERYTHING including the dogs? Thats something when it happens a lot of people dont think to do. but you may need it eventually.

[Oddsock]

Continuing to think of you and your human and fur family. So glad you have somewhere clean to rest. Thank goodness you have family to help.
Hope your hubby improves and they figure out what is going on with him.

OH MY GOSH I am SO sorry this happened to you I just wanna hug you! Please make sure you get your key back from that loser. In fact, you might want to change the locks, as he could have had a duplicate cut. Sending good thoughts your way for your husband to feel better and your pups to heal.

I read your most recent post and I so feel for you. Your hub in the hospital, your dogs sick and injured and a house in an awful mess!!! How can a human deal with this and have the strength and stamina to keep going?? They say that God does not give us more than we can handle, but my is he testing you! You talk of the complex nature of your hub's health issues and that is enough stress for anyone alone. Then the various vet visits for your poor dogs. On top of all that you find the time and fortitude to set about cleaning the nasty mess. I so admire your courage. What a great thought....the motor home!! Ah bliss to have a clean and fresh haven to retire to. Praying that the docs can help your dear hub to get well so he can come home to you again. I guess he is in the best place bearing in mind the health hazards in your house right now. I hope that you are getting some well earned sleep after toiling all day and that the howling dog cooperates.
Hoping this horrible period in your life improves soon and that your hub and dogs get well soon. You deserve a nice spa treatment after all this. Hope you can get it soon.
I wonder how the house could have become to badly soiled on such a short time and how the sitter was blind to it all??
So hang in there, praying for you all.
Big hugs, Dot.

Today is going a little smoother. The husband had a dialysis port place this morning and started dialysis. He will stay in the hosp until at least Friday.
They have to monitor him closely due to his heart condition.

Koko is doing ok. The vet put her on muscle relaxers and she has been sleeping most of the day. Finally ate something.

Maggie the fighter dog happens to be the husband diabetic alert dog. She went to visit him today after surgery. Her bit ear is slightly infected as well as the couple puncture wounds. She isn't hurt bad and is healing with antibiotics.

When I took Duke the lab to the vet, I discovered that the sitter dropped him off for a hematoma and didn't go pick him back up until he had been called 5-6 times. He also didn't take his meds. The drain is still in his ear and I have to take him back Friday. He is a happy boy and loved going to the vet.

Lani caught another mouse for me as a present.( If she only knew that rodents and a strong phobia for me) I called the husbands son over to dispose of it.

The house is almost livable. The motorhome made all the difference.

Thank you everyone for your sympathy and kind words. They are a true help as I wade through all this mess.

Just read all that you are going through and just don't know what to say other than I am so sorry for all you are having to deal with.

I agree it is better that you hubby is in the hospital right now.
I am impressed with how well you are dealing with all this - I think I would be a basket case!

Right now anger is not what you need. Take care of yourself, your pups and your hubby. Your sitter/neighbor sounds very immature, irresponsible and and a know it all moron - you are wise to just put distance between you and him.

Sending prayers for your husband and the pup's healing and strength for you as you cope with all this. Blessings to your hub's son and wife for their help

What an ordeal! Hopefully you didn't pay the dogsitter/ disaster maker! You would really think that people could follow instructions and do as they were told esp being that it was a job he took on. Hope you can restore some order to your life and that your hubby is home soon too! Good luck with the injured dog and sorry about the chickens.

I did have a positive surprise today. One of my hens brought out 5 new baby chicks. I didn't know she had a nest hidden
