Buenos Aires Dog Walkers



Professional dog walking appears to be a lucrative business because as we were walking to the cemetery this morning we saw three people, each walking a large amount of dogs. They appear to specialize. This first walker has all the cute little fluff balls including one like Bella. We watched him tie about eight dogs to a tree and he left them to go to an apartment upstairs to bring down a darling little poodle. In the U.S. if we left these little tykes tied to a tree they would all be stolen in a minute.

The woman had more of a challenge and when I snapped the photo she had tangled all the leashes and she was having a hard time getting them separate without losing any of the dogs. Down the street was another walker with about nine huge hunting type dogs and he was working hard to keep them all at the same pace. It was fun watching the interaction of the dogs and you could tell they were loving it.
