| I'm so nervous I'm boarding Rosie for the first time. We're going on a cruise for 1 week and I'm leaving her with my boss. The problem is they're going out of town too, so she'll have to be boarded for 2 nights 3 days It makes me sad that she'll be in a crate for two nights. I hope they take her out often. I tried my best to find arrangements where I don't have to board her at all. |

| I'm sorry...I know that is tough. Check out the place where she will be boarded and ask them questions. It might make you feel better. Good luck and try to enjoy your cruise.

BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | It will probably be harder on you then it will be on her. I'm sure she will miss you, but she will love it more when you get back! Have fun and take lots of pics for us who have to stay home in this cold weather! |

| It's too bad you don't live here! I do petsitting in my home. Have you tried PetSafe Village in KNoxville. I've met the owners (I believe). They were super nice. They order wholesale treats from the Bone Appetit Bakery. http://www.petsafevillage.com/ You may check it out. Seems to be a very nice place! It's definately a little pricey, but it's better than your baby being in a crate all day and night. So long as you trust your boss to spend some real playtime with your baby though she should be fine.

| That is a very hard thing to do, leave our babies in a place that they will be caged up..I do not have to do this, and would hate that day..But like another said, it is probably hurting you more then it will hurt her...and spoil her while your gone, find some cute things to bring home for her..toys treats.. I left mine with my brother in law when we went on a cruise, I cried when I left. silly ah..but they become so much a part of the family. I did miss them so much. People as usual just thought it funny...oh well!!!!! |

| My boss has a yorkie and a shiz tsu, so I completely trust her. She has to board her dogs for those few days too, so I wanted to board Rosie at the same place. I don't want to burden her with having to go across town to pick Rosie up. I hope this place is good. |

| We boarded Hailee when we cruised last June! I was a wreck! We boarded her with our vet and they weren't in crates but were in little "cubicles". Her coat was a mess when we got back, but she was fine, not traumatized at all. We were gone 10 days - great cruise - San Juan, St. Thomas and Grand Turk. It was so great! My husband is a cruise addict. I usually just want to stay with my dogs. Don't worry too much and have a great time. Rosie will be very glad to see you when you return.
