And that mentality is exactly why I always suggest people use professionals, not friends or neighbors, and especially not kids, to take care of business. Business or no, I treat people and their pets the way I would want myself and my pets to be treated. I would sure hope someone watching my dogs for me would have THEIR best interest at heart, even if I was an ignorant and irresponsible owner. (Ex. If my dogs were escaping their yard through a hole in the fence, I wouldn't keep putting them back in it until it was secure. If I was gone and this was happening, I would hope my neighbors wouldn't keep putting my dogs back in the yard either, just as I wouldn't keep putting their dogs back in their yard if it was not secure.)

Again, just so you know 4H&H, my posts aren't directed at or about you as a personal attack. I understand what's done is done and I hope everything turns out okay, but this information could help someone make a life or death decision the next time they are responsible for someone's pets.
