I am glad she is no longer a breeder if she thinks they are just dogs! I know exactly how you feel. I have rescheduled things and just flat out not gone to places in the past week or so since Riley came home because I was uncomfortable with how long I would be gone and he would be in his xpen.

We have always been that way with our dogs even when they were older so it isn't just cause he is a puppy, he is our baby and I don't want him to wonder what happened to me. I will be more willing to be gone longer periods once he is older and I know he knows I will always return but still never think he is just a dog so I don't need to worry about how long I am gone!
