Conditional Use Permit: Kevin Armstrong – 19054 Waco Street NW, Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />Description Narrative: <br />I, Kevin Armstrong, had Remi (yellow lab) prior to my girlfriend moving in. When she moved in at the <br />beginning of 2020, she brough 2 dogs (Bilbo – Black Lab, Sullivan – chocolate lab). Late November 2021, <br />my sister was moving and needed a place to house her dog (Nemo – German Shephard), we agreed to <br />watch him while she looked for a place to live. By January she was unable to find a place that takes <br />dogs, so we ended up adopting Nemo. <br />We never intended on owning 4 dogs, my intention was Remi, but life doesn’t always work that way. <br />The boys are loved and cared for. They rarely are home alone (my girlfriend works from home). They <br />get along well with each other having established a hierarchy and respect for each other. The boys are <br />current on all their shots and are seen for their regular check-ups at the vet. Waste is cleaned up <br />regularly, as you can imagine four dogs can leave quite a legacy if we do not keep up on this chore. The <br />boys are brushed regularly too, to help mitigate the shedding and reduce the number of times a week <br />we vacuum (which is a lot – we like a clean house) <br />All four dogs are walked daily. Sometimes Nemo and Sullivan will get a second walk. Bilbo is almost 14, <br />and Remi has some physical limitations, so any additional walks for these two is just too much. Sullivan <br />can be seen in the neighborhood running leashed alongside my girlfriend, while Nemo loves to play ball <br />in the back yard. All 4 dogs, including the new arrival Nemo (who learned very quickly), need to sit for <br />their dinner and cannot start until given the approval. They all get a lot of attention, and although this <br />was not planned, we wouldn’t have it any other way (although when it’s Bilbo’s time – he will not be <br />replaced) <br />Thank you.
