It took me a couple days to put it together why he was so stressed and hanging on us like a shadow. Then I remembered his rescue story. In short his first home went into foreclosure, his family packed up to move and he landed in the shelter system. Little guy was probably thinking oh no not again. Thankfully like mr. B and miss M, Roadie is pretty adaptable and resilient. One of the best decisions we made though was to never leave him alone at the house. Since the home we were renting was also on the market and agents were not respectful to appointments and calling ahead, the last thing we wanted was for someone to show the home and finding our boy there. Daycare and walk away adventures became our motto when handling showings. Now we are in a great space and I hope to never have to move again for a long while. Congrats to you both on your new home!AJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10022188090960960737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-62364007643520384732014-07-19T09:32:54.499-05:002014-07-19T09:32:54.499-05:00You are not alone!

Luckily we were able to throw Melvin in the car and drive around during showings (it was a great chance to train him on being calmer in the car). Our frustration was less about readying the house for showing (i prob could have cared more!) but about packing. Melvin was so stressed with boxes and the boxes ended up being how he injured his tail and thus lost it. NEVER MOVING AGAIN!!!

We sold the house that our lab was born in a couple years ago and I tried so hard to make sure she didn't see us packing up and moving things out. I packed things away in boxes over a few weeks so it just seemed like I was cleaning, and luckily all of her toys were in a drawer that could just be closed. We did have issues when people came to look at the house because they were supposed to call first so I could get her out of the house, but they never did. We sold quickly and things went great, and I had an entire plan mapped out for moving into the new house, but we had to stay with friends for 5 weeks, which was pretty hard on her. Luckily, that made the move to the new house all the sweeter. :)Ashley Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01432709541557774030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-67594656259404670852014-07-15T09:52:48.713-05:002014-07-15T09:52:48.713-05:00All good tips - Aaron and I want to move eventuall...All good tips - Aaron and I want to move eventually and keeping the dogs happy is our first concern.<br /><br />Monty and HarlowHow Sam Sees Ithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08305827999885588071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-90282012287522881782014-07-15T09:19:21.715-05:002014-07-15T09:19:21.715-05:00Your home always looked super doooper clean.
