Hiring a dog walker to break up your pup’s day is an important decision you shouldn’t take lightly. In this day and age of online, on-demand dog walking it’s worrisome to see dogs picked up by strangers with little knowledge of canine safety and little or no professional dog walking experience. But another popular option Chicago dog owners lean towards are the super small, “pop up” companies of one or two dog fans that actually aren’t running their business legally.

Today marks Day 1 of CBV’s 12 Days of Chauncey countdown. Thank you so much for following along on this crazy ride he’s taken us on. We’re actually surprised his holiday wishlist wasn’t completely comprised of this single item.

Earlier this week Chauncey wished for a birthday party. Tuesday it was internet fame. Today’s wish is -- well -- a little out there. Enjoy Day 2 of Chauncey and his amazing holiday countdown.

My Chihuahua Terrier is still at it with his cheerful holiday demands. Looks like today's wish is for a shopping day at his favorite dog food and supply shop in Andersonville.
