Hello! And welcome back!

I realise I'm from a totally different part of the world - but I, personally, wouldn't be able to bear the thought of Harry (or Junebug!) being put back in a cage, any size or kind of cage, again. I don't think it would be worth the thought of regression - and I'm sure you wouldn't enjoy your time away with the worry of it all!

You've got quite a while, so plenty of time for research. Does your Vet know of any 'house-sitters' that are registered and insured, that might be able to come and stay at yours, so that little Junebug is in his own environment?

What I did was to advertise for a dog-sitter to look after Harry in their own home. I interviewed at least a dozen ladies, visited their homes, saw how Harry interacted, checked out references....and then, once I'd found 'the one', I left him with her for just a day. Then a couple of weeks later, left him with her for an overnighter. It worked out absolutely perfectly - now he loves Lisa as much as he loves me!

I'll keep thinking - and good luck with whatever you decide! Sally + Harry x
