It's sounds like you are in love.
lt was so hard to leave Rockie when he came home at 2 1/2 months. We made sure he was not home for over four hours by himself. My daughter had a schedule at school where she got out at 12:00 o'clock, l start work at 8:00a.m it worked out pretty well. We did not let him around other pups untill he had all his shots. lt's great your mom watches him for you. lf you have no other altenative as far as someone else watching him...l'd take him and be watchful, are you taking his crate too.
