- You have full use of the kitchen but clean up after yourself. That means rinsing and putting dishes in the dishwasher, or putting clean dishes away before putting dirty
ones in.
House Guidelines for Workshop Guests:
- Please bring slippers or socks to wear in the house as shoes are left at the front door. The workshop room is carpeted but the adjoining kitchen is not; it’s
hardwood.
- No smoking inside. You are welcome to smoke on the deck outside or the portico in front. Ashtrays and chairs are provided in those areas.
- You are welcome to bring food and put it in the refrigerator. Please mark any leftovers and ask before taking those unmarked.
Our Four-legged companions (Gracie the Beagle and Izzy the cat)
I’m an animal lover. You’ll find any number of them sharing my home at any given time. I’m also a foster mom for Beagles Rescue. At present I
have 2 companions that are permanent residents and one I’m fostering.
Izzy is the newest addition, adopted to Safe Haven Rescue. She is a very playful and somewhat mischievous kitten who loves to snuggle.
Gracie is a very friendly 3 year-old Beagle. Ginger is a sweet 21 month-old Beagle I am fostering.
All dogs are in training. In order to ensure the dogs see and respect your boundaries as a pack leader, please follow these simple steps. Of course, if you choose not to
interact, I will show you the commands to keep them at bay, otherwise...
- Please no touch, no talk, no eye contact with the dogs when you arrive at the front door. This teaches them that you are the leader and they are the followers.
- Don’t allow them to jump up on you without your permission. This is the most difficult behavior to correct as it is natural for dogs to do this. If one of
the dogs jumps up on you at anytime without your permission, say the command “Off!”.
- Only pet the dogs when you want to. When you do, call them to you and make them sit first. They must earn the petting. If a dog jumps up on you, give her the
“Sit” command and don’t pet her. Only pet the dogs when they are calm. Petting when they are excited only reinforces excited behavior and tells them they are in
control.
- Please refrain from feeding the dogs from your plate or when you are in the kitchen. They will pester you incessantly afterward if you do.
- Beagles are “scent” hounds. Please keep all food and drinks off the floor. If you have food in your purse, put it up on a chair where they can’t get
to it.
- Keep your bedroom doors closed at night if you don’t want the animals in your rooms. They usually sleep with in my room but they do wander to the other rooms when
occupied.
thanks,
Your facilitator and hostess, Jelaila
