| I am taking my dog with me to my bf's family home this thanksgiving. I took her there before and she was a nutty girl. (she found an old picture of his grandmother from somewhere and she chewed it....) But no accidents. They have a lab but he is usually outside the house but last time I took her, he was inside and he wanted to play with my Momiji (3lb) but he was bit too rough on her and she got scared.... I did ask my bf if it is O.K. for me to take her and he said yes so hope his family doesn't mind.... |

| I'd probably try to make everybody happy - get a hotel room, leave the doggies in the room, eat with family and run back to hotel.

| We are going to my mother's house for Thanksgiving. It's about a 4 hour drive. My mom is okay with the dogs, but my Grandma is not and her house is where we will be spending most of the day. We're not doing Thanksgiving together for another week and I will have my puppy by then. My sister has a yorkie puppy too and we are planning on puting them under the carport outside in a play yard. But, I live in the South and its been in the 70's here lately. |

| That's awful, I can't imagine! Even my hubby's grandmother would let us bring Vinnie and she can't stand little dogs. She has a gorgeous house with rooms you are not allowed to go in because she doesn't want you to walk on the carpet and she would let Vinnie come knowing there would be no way of keeping him off those carpets!

| I am so sorry you did not get this worked out so you could be together as a family, especially after so many years in the military have kept you separated. I know how difficult this must be to be seperated from your husband and girls. I am not having the planned Thanksgiving day either - due to one person spoiling it for everyone else - I had intended to drive 14 hrs to be with my brother and sister-in-law and their 2 babies, including my 5 mth old niece, who I haven't even met yet. And they said my yorkies were welcome to come Plus my parents would be there. But my daughter 18 yr old daughter has thrown a major fit, she thinks she is so independent after going off to college and refused to go. I couldn't leave her by herself for the holiday, nor could I drive it without her, so after a battle for 4 days we are staying home - and on top of that it's snowing buckets her today. We could have been somewhere much warmer. It is too bad, when one person can spoil the family get together for everyone else.

| Such a shame. Those of us who have lost loved ones since last Thanksgiving would give anything to have our families back together for one more time, with or without our furbabies. |

| Thank you so much for all your support girls! I really needed it. I thought I was ok with this. I thought that it would be ok this one time to split up just to make her happy but found myself really upset when I was getting the hubby and girls ready to go. Now I have spent the last hour since they left just in tears. They won't be back until Friday afternoon. We havn't lived here very long and really don't know anyone that he could have stayed with but even if we had I don't think I would have gone for it as she is just being ugly from the start. My husband didn't want to go without us and I told him he should go to keep the peace but I can promise that this will be the last time we will be seperated because she wants to be ugly...I have already decided I will have an open invitation to my house on holidays and they can come if they want but we won't be staying there again. Now I have to figure out how to quit with the tears so I can just enjoy my son's.

| I agree and I am very sad that we all can't be together there but it is not just about Teddy not being there, it was about her being ugly and acting as though she didn't want us there or that she just had to do something to stir the pot. I'm hoping she will miss us and realize what that her pettyness has hurt alot of people this year.

| I'm sorry things didn't work out for you. My daughter's the same way. She has four dogs, but she'll never let me take my dog's over her house.

| hence this is why I have thanksgiving at my house every year.. The people who I know will make a fuss about my kiddos I dont even invite. Its my house I am not going to let them spoil my mood or have them treat my dogs bad in THEIR house.. I dont agree with how some of their kids behave so I wont go if I know I will be annoyed by their children. In my eyes they have 2 choices, either deal with my kiddos, or dont come.. they are eating my food for free anyway.. its not like they are paying... |

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | I'm sorry that that's how it had to be. I wouldn't leave mine either if it was a long trip like that - but we just go over my aunt's house (10 minutes away), so we'd always let the dogs stay home. Try to enjoy your Thanksgiving. Maybe there's someone on here near you you could spend the day with lol.
