In the over 1 year that we had Pepper we always took him with us but one time when we took our anniversary trip - he was boarded and I didn't have good experience with it. We don't go on vacation if we can't take him, but I know one day we will plan a trip again and I'll have a tough cookie with it... I won't leave him in a daycare anymore but I have no family in the US either. Maybe finding a paid sitter that will only take your dog for that time would be better |
