I love my job! Every day is different, and there is always an adventure awaiting me! Yesterday was no different.
I set showings for a client and got approval from the listing agents or their offices to show the properties. Apparently one of the agents failed to let the occupant of the home know to expect us. And I was not notified that there would be a dog in the house.
We arrived, knocked at the door, before entering. Upon opening the door, a beautiful white Huskie bolted, out the door and down the street. The lady who lives in the home was sitting there breast feeding. I went after her dog, if I ran the dog ran, if I walked the dog walked. It was a game for Dakota (the huskie), for me it was a workout. With the help of some neighbors about 1/4 of the mile down the road, we were able to capture Dakota and take him home.
So a little bit of advice for anyone who is looking to put their home on the market- Please ask your agent to advise any showing agents that there is a pet in the home. Especially if you have a pet who likes to run!!
