Yep, I forgo vacations now and haven't had one in at least 4 years. There is only 1 person I would 100% trust to watch them, but now that I have 3 that is just too any and too much to ask.
And mine ARE my babies, and I have a skin kid too. I also think it's different when people have larger dogs and don't understand. Our little ones cannot take care of themselves as a larger dog could. They are little, underfoot, can get into trouble if not being watched, really good escape artists. They depend on us for their safety and care, just as a child would.
