Here goes nothing lol...

Words: 2k

Warnings: None

Characters: Éomer x OC, Éowyn x Faramir

“You are aware that you’re an idiot, right?” Éowyn grinned as she sat on the floor with her brother’s massive dog trying desperately to crawl on her lap while Éomer shoved magazines and single socks between his best tableware in the old armoire standing in his living room.

“Shut up and help me instead of indulging this traitor,” he hissed; his gaze roamed around the room frantically in search of other offending items. “Why did I even invite you over?”

Éowyn cackled and got up gracefully, stepping past her brother with a mocking grin, to open the door to her own boyfriend whose expression expressed both worried disapproval and barely contained glee.

“Ah, you’ve brought young Denethor,” she cooed at the grumpy-looking cat Faramir was carrying in his arms like a baby.

“I wish you would refrain from addressing the cat by the name of my father,” he sighed and bent down to press a loving kiss onto her smiling mouth. “Take the beast; I’ll see if your brother needs any help.” Extending her arms to her darling pet, Éowyn merely shook her head in earnest pity. It was just like Faramir to offer his assistance despite the fact that her brother had gotten himself into the mess he was presently mired down in all on his own and deserved neither help nor sympathy.

Apparently, the doggy day-care in charge of the mountain of flesh parading as an actual dog that lived here had informed Éomer that said beast, Firefoot – the laziest and least fiery canine in the world – had made a friend.

In his boundless enthusiasm – for “like master, like man” – Éomer had promptly invited the owner of said “buddy” to his home; it was only after the young woman going by the much less ludicrous name of Mathilda had accepted that Éomer was reminded of his woeful shortcomings as a host.

Thankfully for him, his sister had been so amused by his tale of woe that she had offered that she and her boyfriend could come as chaperones.

It had not struck Éomer at the time he had extended this ill-advised invitation that his motives might well have been understood as sinister and potentially nefarious; he was ashamed to admit that it had taken his sister’s vocal dismay to make him fully aware of how unfortunate it would have been to entice a woman into finding herself alone at the mercy of a stranger behind a possibly locked door.

Good-natured as he was, Éomer had not thought of himself as a threat but he was nonetheless very grateful that Éowyn and her partner had been willing to come defuse the dicey situation.

Truth be told, Éomer was rather nervous about the whole evening and his broad, strong hands were just the tiniest bit unsteady as he set out empty glasses onto the freshly polished table.

The frantic energy radiating from him was probably the reason why Faramir was by now utterly infected with blind panic and so, Éowyn got to witness her two favourite men in the world run around like headless chickens; as a woman herself though, she was firmly convinced that she wanted no partner for her only sibling who would be offended by a stray sock or a horse catalogue lying around.

After all, Éomer could clean up anxiously as much as he wanted now, he’d still be a bit scatter-brained and slightly chaotic in nature and the lady in question should learn this about him as soon as possible. If one was to ask Éowyn, she’d boldly claim that Éomer’s kind and brave soul were well worth the blatant lack of tidiness and she truly hoped that the much-anticipated guest would agree.

Indeed, it seemed very unlikely to her that her brother would just invite anybody to his home only because their dogs got along well with each other; certainly, there was more to the story than that!

Slowly, she started to feel her own senses grow sharper with wariness as they waited – seemingly endlessly – for this mysterious dog owner.

As soon as Mathilda arrived, swaddled in a breath-takingly beautiful coat and handsomely flushed on account of the cool evening air, with a very well-behaved dog in tow, Éowyn’s secret suspicions were instantly and uncontestably confirmed.

‘Tilda, as the lady introduced herself, was a woman of rather short stature with a radiant smile and twinkling eyes whose pretty complexion and luscious hair would have charmed even men much more hard-hearted than Éomer.

Right now though, confusion distorted her pleasant face as she took in the suspiciously bare room and the two strangers standing around displaying varying degrees of relaxation.

“I’m Éowyn, Éomer’s sister,” Éowyn simply took the initiative as the two men just gaped dumbly at the newcomer, “and the flushed panicky dude in the corner is my boyfriend. My brother has said something about an evening of boardgames and fun, so we thought we’d tag along, if that’s okay by you?”

Éomer grunted under his breath; he had said no such thing! As a matter of fact, he avoided playing any kind of game with Éowyn as much as possible as they were both sore losers and insufferable winners.

Ever since their youngest childhood, they had managed to turn everything into a competition and, while Éomer was taller, stronger, and faster than his sister, she was wilier by far.

Faramir also blanched for he was well-aware of the rivalry between his intended and her brother; he had been the heedless witness of many a game-night massacre and had been one of the chief instigators of the “no boardgames”-rule in both their households.

“Oh,” Mathilda whispered, her astonished gaze lighting up with innocent eagerness. “That sounds like a lot of fun! Let’s do that!”

Knowing himself to be outwitted thoroughly, Éomer admitted his first defeat of the evening and went to retrieve the old Monopoly from under a stack of empty shoeboxes in his bedroom.

Within a few minutes, war was raging around the rickety table; Éowyn literally bared her teeth at her boyfriend as he considered buying a very advantageous property.

Thus threatened, Faramir decided to play it safe instead and kept his money; he seemed to prefer endless, hopeless wandering around the board to the fierce threat of unspeakable violence in Éowyn’s eyes.

He was affectionately mocked by most people in his life for his tendency to bring great sacrifices and do himself tremendous harm in order to appease or please those he held dear, and – even though this was supposed to be innocent entertainment – the present conundrum was no exception to this idiosyncrasy of his.

As for Éomer, not only did he make a few very unfortunate choices early on in the game, but he was also cursed with a streak of particularly bad luck.

“Sister,” he cried dramatically, “remember the bonds of blood that tie us to one another. Will you not come to my aid in this hour of need?”

“Eat dust, Éomer,” she declared haughtily and made her next brazen move.

In a moment of petulant weakness, Éomer consider flipping the whole table in a sudden rush of irate impatience and heartsick dissatisfaction, but he reined himself in at the last moment and merely glared at his triumphant sister through the whole round.

Mathilda meanwhile had apparently been granted all the luck Éomer was lacking and, very soon, she was the only player who had any chance of toppling Éowyn and ending her reign of terror.

Unfortunately, she turned out to be just as ambitious and competitive; eyes flashed, lips tightened, and long hair was tossed back impetuously as they plotted their next moves frantically.

“Will you not help me?” Éomer whispered at Faramir whose wide, glassy eyes stayed glued to his beloved’s face as he shook his head almost imperceptibly.

“You’re on your own, my man; I just want to survive to see my dear father’s face again,” he confessed under his breath. “Would that Boromir was here. I’m sure he would relish the chance to measure his prowess against such skill and wit.”

“What are you two conspiring about?” Éowyn bellowed from across the table pugnaciously; she was so close to her victory that she could almost taste it.

Both dogs had retreated into the kitchen, distraught by the unbearable tension in the living room, but Éowyn’s ugly cat was perched upon the armoire into which all of Éomer’s unpalatable belongings had been secreted so unceremoniously.

Just as his sister lifted her intrepid hand to make her last move, sealing their fates, the shaggy sour-faced beast leaped down and – landing on the board – made it slide off the table in an avalanche of cards and figurines.

“Ugh! Blasted cat!” Éowyn howled.

“Ah, such a shame!” Faramir cried out, swooping in to save their pet from her wrath and the wet nosing of the dogs who had sprinted back to roll around on the crumpled paper money on the floor.

“What about dinner? Mathilda? Would you care to eat something? I’m sure my sister and her boyfriend would be delighted to dogsit as it was their cat that spoiled our fun!” Éomer pounced on the opportunity to get out of the blast radius of his sister’s temper that was – by the look on her face – about to erupt in a flood of angry words and reckless actions.

Mathilda cocked her head; she was not disinclined to have a bite to eat, but she evidently thought it rude to go out without inviting the other two members of their party.

“Oh, it would be our pleasure, wouldn’t it?” Faramir replied hastily, a wicked glint stealing into his calm gaze. “We wouldn’t be sore losers, would we, my love?”

“I guess,” Éowyn grunted and shot such a withering look at both Faramir and their cat that both flinched visibly.

“That’s so very sweet of you, sister mine,” Éomer chirped and – ignoring the mess on the floor – he extended his arm to Mathilda to escort her into the foyer and help her into her coat. “We won’t be long,” he called over his shoulder cheerily. “If you’re hungry too, you could order a pizza? Be advised though, Firefoot barks when the doorbells rings and my neighbour is not overly fond of it.”

“Let him come and complain,” Éowyn yelled back – a little louder than necessary – and chuckled darkly. Knowing that she would be spoiling for a fight, Éomer accepted to sacrifice the annoying man next door – a grimy, pale-faced, lurking fellow – to her wrath.

Éomer sincerely liked his brother-in-law and consequently had no qualms to save his hide by diverting Éowyn’s frustration thus.

Moreover, he had seen the way his neighbour looked at his sister every time she came over and he delighted in the idea of having her blow him off in the most explicit and unmistakeable manner known to humanity.

He almost felt sorry that he’d probably miss that confrontation; he would have paid good money to watch his sister have a go at that slimy worm of a man.

Nevertheless, he had more important challenges to face now, and – if he didn’t want this evening to be a complete disaster – he needed to prove that he was more than just a mediocre Monopoly-player.

“Milady,” he grinned with all the charm he could muster as he turned suavely back to Mathilda. “Do not worry, my sister is much better with animals than she is with people!”

“I do not know what you allude to,” the young woman replied coolly, “I found her to be perfectly agreeable and a worthy opponent, which cannot be said of all my fellow players.”

Catching her sharp but humorous side-glance, Éomer sighed deeply; it was just his luck to meet a fascinating and enchanting woman who just so happened to be eerily similar to his beloved sister in many a way.

At the end of the day though, he understood, respected, and adored Éowyn and thus, he decided to take Mathilda’s reaction as a good and promising omen.

@fellowshipofthefics thank you for creating such an amazing environment!

@laurfilijames here is Éomer losing his cool (among other things).

Lots of love. If you've not yet joined the server, come join us! Plenty of fun things are happening over there!

Lots of love <3

What Makes a Great Doggy Day Care?

Choosing the right doggy day care is essential for the well-being and happiness of your furry friend. With so many options available, it’s important to identify what truly makes a day care facility stand out. From safety measures to enrichment activities, several factors contribute to the quality of pet day care services. Here’s a comprehensive guide to what makes a great doggy day care.

Key Features of an Exceptional Doggy Day Care

Safety and Cleanliness

Safety is paramount when it comes to choosing a doggy day care. An exceptional facility should have robust safety protocols in place to protect your pet. Look for the following:

Secure Fencing and Gates: Ensure the facility is enclosed with high, secure fencing that prevents dogs from escaping. Gates should be sturdy and equipped with secure latches.

Cleanliness: The day care should maintain a clean environment. Regular cleaning schedules and proper waste disposal practices are crucial to prevent the spread of diseases and ensure your dog's health.

Emergency Protocols: A great doggy day care should have clear emergency procedures, including access to a nearby veterinary clinic and trained staff to handle medical situations.

Qualified and Caring Staff

The quality of the staff is a critical aspect of any pet day care. A great doggy day care will have:

Experienced Personnel: Staff should have experience in handling dogs and be knowledgeable about canine behavior and health. Certifications in pet first aid and CPR are a plus.

Passionate Caregivers: The staff should show genuine affection and care for the dogs. Observing interactions between staff and dogs can give you insight into their approach and attitude.

Staff-to-Dog Ratio: A low staff-to-dog ratio ensures that each dog receives adequate attention and supervision throughout the day.

Engaging Activities and Enrichment

A good doggy day care should offer a variety of activities to keep dogs engaged and mentally stimulated. Look for facilities that provide:

Play Areas: Well-designed play areas with safe, durable equipment allow dogs to exercise and socialize. Separate areas for different sizes or energy levels of dogs can help prevent conflicts.

Interactive Toys and Games: Enrichment toys and games that challenge a dog’s mind and encourage problem-solving are essential. These can include puzzle feeders, treat-dispensing toys, and agility courses.

Socialization Opportunities: Regular socialization with other dogs helps improve behavioral skills and reduce anxiety. A good day care will facilitate supervised playgroups to promote positive social interactions.

Additional Considerations

Individual Attention and Customization

Every dog has unique needs and preferences. An exceptional doggy day care will:

Provide Tailored Care: Offer personalized care plans based on the individual needs of each dog, including dietary restrictions, medical requirements, and special needs.

Monitor and Report: Regular updates on your dog's activities and behavior help you stay informed about how they’re doing throughout the day.

Flexibility and Convenience

Convenience plays a role in choosing the right doggy day care. Look for facilities that offer:

Flexible Hours: Extended hours or the option for early drop-off and late pick-up can accommodate different schedules.

Additional Services: Some day cares offer additional services such as grooming, training, or transportation, which can be convenient for busy pet owners.

Positive Reviews and Recommendations

Lastly, it’s important to do your research before making a decision. Look for:

Positive Reviews: Check online reviews and testimonials from other pet owners to gauge the quality of the day care. Look for consistent positive feedback and any concerns that might arise.

Recommendations: Ask friends, family, or your veterinarian for recommendations. Personal experiences can provide valuable insights into the quality and reliability of a day care facility.

Why Choose a Great Doggy Day Care?

Choosing the right doggy day care is more than just finding a place for your pet to spend the day while you’re away. It’s about ensuring that your furry friend is safe, happy, and well-cared for. Here’s why selecting a great doggy day care is crucial for both you and your dog:

Ensures Your Dog’s Safety and Well-being

Comprehensive Safety Measures

A high-quality doggy day care prioritizes your pet’s safety. This includes secure facilities with proper fencing and gates to prevent escapes, as well as stringent cleanliness standards to avoid the spread of illnesses. Emergency protocols and trained staff ensure that any health issues are addressed promptly.

Professional Care and Attention

Great doggy day cares employ qualified staff with experience in canine behavior and health. These professionals are equipped to handle various situations and provide personalized care based on your dog’s needs. They also create a safe and positive environment where dogs can interact and play under supervision.

Provides Enrichment and Socialization

Mental and Physical Stimulation

Dogs need mental and physical stimulation to stay healthy and happy. A reputable doggy day care offers engaging activities, such as interactive toys, agility courses, and structured playtime. These activities help keep your dog’s mind sharp and their body active, reducing boredom and destructive behaviors.

Positive Socialization

Socialization is vital for a dog’s development and well-being. A great day care provides opportunities for your dog to interact with other dogs in a controlled and supervised environment. This helps improve their social skills, reduces anxiety, and fosters positive behavior.

Conclusion

Selecting a great doggy day care involves evaluating several key factors, including safety, staff qualifications, enrichment activities, and convenience. By focusing on these aspects, you can ensure that your dog receives high-quality care and enjoys their time away from home. Remember to visit potential day cares, ask questions, and observe the facility firsthand to make an informed decision. A great doggy day care will not only meet your expectations but will also enhance your dog’s overall well-being and happiness.

Love every last one of them. :)

Names have been picked from experience working in doggy daycare and having multiples of the same name within the groups.

All the names are lovely! But I would be happier to hear different names each day, lol.

Names may also veer towards being more tradionally British names for dogs as I live in Scotland!

Why Dog Boarding is a Safe and Comfortable Option for Your Pet

When planning a trip or facing an emergency that requires you to be away from home, ensuring your dog’s safety and comfort is a top priority. While options such as leaving your dog with a friend or hiring a pet sitter exist, dog boarding facilities offer a reliable and professional alternative. Here's why dog boarding is a safe and comfortable option for your pet.

Professional Care - Dog boarding facilities are staffed with trained professionals who understand canine behavior and health. These experts are equipped to handle various situations, from administering medications to managing dietary needs and monitoring your dog's overall well-being. The structured environment ensures that your dog receives the attention and care it requires, reducing the risk of health issues or accidents.

Socialization Opportunities - Dog boarding provides an excellent opportunity for your pet to socialize with other dogs. This interaction is beneficial for your dog's mental and emotional health. Playing with other dogs can reduce anxiety, increase happiness, and improve social skills. Many boarding facilities offer supervised playtime, ensuring that your dog engages in healthy and safe interactions.

Routine and Structure - Dogs thrive on routine, and boarding facilities maintain a structured schedule that includes feeding, playtime, and rest. This consistency helps minimize stress and anxiety, making your dog feel more secure in your absence. Familiar routines also help prevent behavioral problems that can arise from a lack of structure.

Safety Measures - Reputable dog boarding facilities prioritize safety. They have secure environments designed to prevent escapes and injuries. Many offer 24/7 supervision, ensuring that your dog is always monitored. Additionally, they require vaccinations and health checks to prevent the spread of diseases, keeping all the dogs in their care safe and healthy.

Comfort and Amenities - Modern dog boarding facilities often go above and beyond to ensure your pet's comfort. They provide cozy sleeping areas, climate-controlled environments, and even special amenities such as grooming services, enrichment activities, and personalized attention. Some high-end facilities offer luxury suites, outdoor play areas, and webcams so you can check in on your dog remotely.

Peace of Mind for Owner - Knowing that your dog is in a safe, comfortable, and professional environment provides peace of mind. You can focus on your trip or responsibilities without worrying about your pet’s well-being. Many facilities offer regular updates and even photo or video messages, keeping you connected with your furry friend.

In conclusion, dog boarding is a safe and comfortable option that ensures your pet is well-cared for in your absence. With professional staff, structured routines, social opportunities, and stringent safety measures, boarding facilities provide a reliable and enjoyable experience for your dog.

How Do I Store Dog Food Properly?

Proper storage of dog food is essential for maintaining its freshness, nutritional value, and safety for your furry friend. Just as with human food, improper storage can lead to spoilage, loss of nutrients, and even health risks for your pet. This article will cover effective methods for storing dog food, ensuring it remains safe and nutritious for your canine companion. We’ll also touch on how pet day care facilities manage dog food storage, along with tips on storing dog toys for optimal cleanliness and safety.

Why Proper Storage Matters

Nutritional Integrity

Dog food is formulated to provide a balanced diet for your pet. When exposed to air, moisture, or varying temperatures, the nutritional integrity of the food can deteriorate. Fats can become rancid, and essential nutrients may break down, leading to an unbalanced diet for your dog.

Safety Concerns

Improperly stored dog food can become contaminated with mold, bacteria, or pests, posing serious health risks. Consuming spoiled or contaminated food can lead to gastrointestinal issues and other health complications.

Cost Efficiency

Storing dog food properly can also save you money in the long run. Fresh food remains palatable longer, reducing waste and the need to purchase replacements frequently.

Steps for Proper Dog Food Storage

1. Choose the Right Container

The type of container you use plays a crucial role in the storage process. Here are some options to consider:

Airtight Containers: Look for containers specifically designed for pet food storage. Airtight containers help keep moisture, air, and pests out. Options made from BPA-free plastic or metal are ideal as they provide a durable and safe environment for the food.

Original Packaging: If you don’t have a dedicated container, you can store dog food in its original packaging, provided it is resealable. Just ensure it is kept in a cool, dry place.

2. Store in a Cool, Dry Place

Temperature and humidity can significantly affect the quality of dog food. Here are some tips for optimal storage conditions:

Avoid Direct Sunlight: Store dog food in a shaded area to prevent exposure to sunlight, which can accelerate spoilage.

Temperature Control: Ideally, dog food should be stored in a temperature-controlled environment. A pantry or cupboard away from heat sources like ovens or radiators is ideal.

Humidity Levels: Keep the food in a low-humidity environment. Excess moisture can lead to mold growth and spoilage.

3. Portion Control

When managing dog food storage, portioning can be very beneficial:

Small Batches: If possible, store smaller batches of food to minimize exposure to air each time you open the container. This practice helps maintain freshness longer.

Daily Servings: Pre-measure daily servings and store them in separate containers. This not only keeps the food fresh but also makes feeding time more convenient.

4. Check Expiration Dates

Always keep an eye on the expiration date of your dog food.

Rotate Stock: When purchasing new bags, use the first-in, first-out principle to ensure older food is consumed first. This practice helps avoid waste and spoilage.

Regular Inspection: Periodically check stored food for signs of spoilage, such as unusual odors, discoloration, or the presence of pests.

5. Cleaning the Storage Area

A clean storage area is essential for maintaining the quality of your dog food:

Regular Cleaning: Clean your storage container and the area where you keep the dog food regularly. This will help eliminate any potential contaminants.

Avoid Cross-Contamination: Store dog food away from human food and other items that may harbor bacteria.

How Pet Day Care Facilities Store Dog Food

Pet day care facilities often have specialized methods for storing dog food, ensuring safety and quality for the many pets in their care. Here’s how they manage dog food storage effectively:

Bulk Storage

Many pet day care centers purchase dog food in bulk to save on costs. They typically use large, airtight containers to store food safely. Regular stock rotation is practiced to ensure that food is used before its expiration date.

Individual Portioning

For convenience and to maintain freshness, pet day care facilities often portion dog food for individual pets. This not only simplifies feeding but also allows staff to monitor each dog’s food intake and preferences.

Temperature and Environment Control

Most professional facilities have climate-controlled environments to maintain optimal temperatures and humidity levels for dog food storage. This ensures that food remains fresh and safe for consumption.

Additional Tips for Storing Dog Toys

In addition to food, dog toys also require proper care and storage to ensure hygiene and safety. Here are some guidelines for managing dog toys:

1. Regular Cleaning

Washable Toys: Many dog toys can be machine-washed. Regularly clean these toys to eliminate bacteria, dirt, and odors.

Non-Washable Toys: For toys that cannot be washed, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry completely before storing.

2. Designated Storage Area

Organized Space: Designate a specific area for storing dog toys, such as a bin or basket. This keeps your living space tidy and makes it easier to find toys when needed.

Avoid Overcrowding: Store toys in a way that prevents them from becoming dirty or damaged. Avoid stacking too many toys on top of each other.

3. Rotation of Toys

Keep It Fresh: Rotate your dog’s toys to keep their interest alive. By periodically switching out toys, your dog will be more engaged and stimulated.

Monitor Condition: Regularly check toys for wear and tear. Discard any toys that are damaged or pose a choking hazard.

Conclusion

Storing dog food properly is crucial for ensuring your pet's health and well-being. By choosing the right containers, maintaining a suitable storage environment, and following best practices for portioning and cleanliness, you can keep your dog’s food fresh and safe.

Moreover, understanding how pet day care facilities manage food storage can provide valuable insights for pet owners. Just as important is the care of dog toys, which can enhance your pet’s playtime and contribute to a happy, healthy life. By implementing these storage strategies, you can ensure that your furry friend enjoys nutritious meals and engaging playtime, leading to a healthier and happier dog.
