    Oh no, poor doggy 🙁! Not very helpful when you have no idea how it happened, as you can't make sure it won't happen again! Is there any chance of taking him with you on your jobs, even if it's only to a few of them so you're not leaving him for so long? Or maybe re-arranging them so that you go at the weekend and DH can stay home with him (I know not ideal 🙁)

    Poor dog! And poor you (and ouch and sympathies on the vet’s bill 😬)! Or can you put a gap in between your jobs so you can pop back and check on him? Could he be crated?

    So pleased your dog is on the mend. You’re doing very well in your new business venture. You will be turning folk away soon as they all tell their friends x
