This is Lady. Lady is a beautiful pit bull I get to hang out with during the week.  She’s a pain to walk because she pulls crazy hard on the leash and is super strong but hey, I can handle it.

New York City ain’t home to just shihtzus and puggles, y’all.

One day I dropped Lady off and her owner was home. We got to talking and this is the exact conversation we had.

“Lady was great today! She did all her business, 1 and 2! Twice!” (Yes, I must report all doggie bowel movements).

“Oh, that’s so great. Thank you so much Sarah. Lady just loves spending time with you.”

“I love spending time with her! She’s my favorite. It’s like we’re soul sisters.” Yeah, I know that’s a weird thing to say. And what?

“That’s too cute. Hey, you know we have a house in the Catskills. You should take her up there sometime!”

“Sure! Why not?” What?

“You can take our car, it’s about two and a half hours from here.”

“Okay!” 

“Bring your friends!”

“Sure!” What is happening?

So…. That’s basically how this happened:

The original plan was to go up, spend the weekend and go skiing but since there’s been almost no snow this winter the trails weren’t looking too good. So instead, we hung out around the house and did some hiking on their 100 acres of property. Again, what?!

Here are some more photos from my super awesome weekend in the Catskills!

 

After spending the day hiking… I got a call from Lady’s owner who said, “Hope you’re having fun! Help yourself to a bottle of red wine!”

Is she not the cooooooolest dog owner ever!?!?!?!?!?!?

So me and Lady got a fire going and spent some QUALITY. TIME. together.

 

 

Both nights, Lady came in and shared the bed with me. She took up most of the bed and slept on my feet but I didn’t mind. It was a special weekend for the both of us.

It’s all about the give and take, people.
