Do you leave him alone during the day normally? If so, he should be OK. If it would make YOU feel better to take him to daycare, then do so: the move will be traumatic for YOU, too. Have you been able to locate Doggie Daycare already?
In any event, congratulations on securing a new job, even if you have to relocate to do so. Jobs are hard to come by right now ... Being able to take Izzy with you will make things easier. I've also found that walking dogs is a good way to meet new folks, too (EVERYone loves a Yorkie!)
Oh, and be sure to make frequent stops on the road so Izzy can stretch his legs and go potty (you too!). When travelling, it may be a good idea to take bottled water for him so water changes along the way don't affect his little system too much.
Good luck! |
Thank you! Yes, it was hard finding a job here in Michigan so I decided to make a move. I have some family and friends there so the transition might not be too bad.
I do leave him home normally and right now I have been in and out of the house trying to run my errands and he is used to that. I am going to check into a daycare and vet today. His vet gave me all of his records so I'm all set with that.
Thanks for the tips!
