[BaxterBaby]

Tomorrow is my first day back to work since bringing Baxter home. I took off work a few days last week to get Baxter used to his new home. I am opting to let him stay in the kitchen with a baby gate & puppy pads, as we are pad training. The problem is he is so attached to me. He cries his little head off. My daughter has offered to puppy sit Monday & Tuesday then I'm off the rest of the week. I just work 2-3 days a week. Do I take him to her or am I prolonging the inevitable? He is only 11 weeks old so that is why I am not crating because I can not come home at lunch. The kitchen is a fairly small kitchen & is puppy proofed. I feel I've made a mistake letting him stay by my side too much. Oh my this is tough. I just hate to leave him alone while I am at work. What to do!
