I got divorced in January and made a BIG move also. My girls were great though. They were great companions on the trip and had little to no problems in their new location. The problems with driving was the rest areas. They do not allow pets in the restrooms, so be prepared. I was kicked out of one when Tia poked her head out of the puppy purse. Not all hotels allow pets also, but we managed well. Get a room on the ground floor, close to the Exit door for easy potty breaks. Getting excited makes more potty breaks! lol I learned to take everything with me when I checked in. My girls did not want me to leave and grab the rest of my stuff out of the car. Bark Bark Bark I did supplement their food with chicken to keep them eating. I had way less stopping to take them potty than I thought I would. I started out with them in the car seat but ended up taking them out of it because it was too confining. They were buckled, but could move around the front seat with me. I could rub them and give them lovin' when their little eyes looked at me for comfort and questions. Good luck. My girls keep me going. I don't know what I would do without them! |
