Santiago

Although I call him Tiago cause he's no saint.
I've so enjoyed spending some time with this little Tasmanian devil.
But my COVID "sabbatical" time is coming to an end.
I work as a medical Xray/CT tech, I had the COVID early in the pandemic.
My 13 year old mellow yellow Labrador crossed the rainbow bridge last year.
Tiago here is quite a handful. I've had difficulty socializing him with other dogs.
He spent, apparently, quite some time fending for himself before I adopted him.
At 62, in some compromised health, man he's been a handful but now nearly a year after
adopting him I don't know what I'd do without him.
The services are clawing at me to come out of retirement and resume work.
I have some family caregiver duties to complete first.
Fair likelihood of landing in the SF bay area--- as much as there are plenty of doggie day care options...
I'd certainly prefer to arrange day accommodations for him, someone with a well fenced yard this October.
