answered a question what's a good wet food brand?

I was in pet nutrition for 4 years. It really depends what you are using the wet food for. There are pate styles and also chunky, some with gravy, some with aspic. I prefer to buy/ feed medium to higher end foods. My absolute favorite go to product, is Stella and Chewys freeze dried patties or meal mixers. You can feed it alone or add water to it to make it more of a canned food . I find even picky eaters LOVE Stella and Chewys. I also really like Zignature, Nutri-Source, Lotus, Honest Kitchen, Weruva and Fromm. Hope that helps!

asked a question Advice Needed Please Help !?

I am hoping some of you could give me advice on a situation that just came up tonight I have a client who is very new to me. ( Only house sat one time before the booking coming up this weekend) The owner had 2 dogs, unfortunately one of her pups passed away Sunday, She was an older doggie. (My client had already paid and booked for 2 dogs) . She informed me tonight that I would only be watching one of her dogs. How ever, this is where it gets a little different. She asked if I could possibly watch a friends dog. This friends dog was her older dogs best friend that just passed away...... I have not met this friends dog, and am not sure how this dog gets a long with my clients younger pup at home. I would like to add, normally I would not hesitate to add another dog into the mix, but my clients younger dog had attacked the older dog that lived in her home at one point. (she is protective) And I am still working on building a trusting relationship with her younger dog ....the younger dog took awhile to warm up to me the first day I was house sitting (not unusual for the breed of dog) I want to be understanding of the situation in my response to her , especially given I really feel bad she lost her older dog. Is it rude for me to tell her I would prefer to just watch her younger dog, and once we have a trusted bond and relationship I would feel better adding another dog into the mix? I thought about considering saying yes, If we did a quick meet and greet with the friends dog, and I got to see how he interacts with my clients younger dog..........but we would need to do that within 24 hours to see if everyone is comfortable with the situation as the booking starts this Friday........... I know I can refund some of her payment so I am not concerned about that part of the situation, mostly just concerned about how to answer her properly, and what you all would do in this situation?
