wow, that's a toughie.
i recently had somewhat of the same experience. my aunt and uncle live 1h away (in good Houston traffic) and we were being evacuated.
When i called and asked if we could come, she of course said yes.
I didn't think to mention the dogs thinking of them like a part of me. When i mentioned the dogs, she said she needed to talk to my uncle about it.
then they said they didnt' want the dogs too b/c they had just moved in and got new carpet and furniture!!
i was crushed! i wish she had offered the garage!
btw, if you are staying and the weather is good, they should be ok out there for the night. does she have a yard you can watch your kids play in all day?
and i can't remember who said "You can bring them to my place in Albany," but that is so selfless and awesome! |
