When you go away - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I have a friend come stay at my house. She is always up for changing. I have had my neighbors watch after both my Yorkie and my Bassett, but for no more than 2 days or so maybe 2 or 3 times. They leave them at my house during the night and bring them to theirs when they are home.

If I can't take Bridget with me, she goes to Grandmas! She loves it there and gets spoiled rotten.

I have two neighbors and relatives that would be more than happy to babysit my dog. He has been to all their houses many times and enjoys being there.

But - I never go anyplace - so what can I say!

Me and my boyfriend are into camping big time we have a trailer tent just like this one

so we go camping every weekend in the summer and I can not wait to take Smudger with us. Haven't got a clue what we would do with him if we go abroad in the summer for 2 weeks like we do every year??? Everyone in my family has dogs except my auntie and she's not really a dog person IYKWIM lol

Would never ever take him to a boarding kennel though. Would probably have to get one of my sisters or friends to come and stay here with him maybe

Well, my yorkie is a service dog, so he can go anywhere. However, if he couldn't we'd probably leave him with family or friends.

Right now I stay at a friends if I have to go to Toronto and she has a cat. One Yorkie is okay 2 Im thinking would be a no no. Family looks after her sometimes but they have dogs of their own, even though they love her to pieces.

Do you live near Toronto or no?

Yes about two hours away from Toronto!!

My daughter BEGS to keep Rowdy - she always says, "When is Rowdy coming for a sleepover?" But we rarely leave him - when we have to though - we leave him with her. She has a cocker spaniel, a boston terrier, a lab and a cat, so their house is pretty crowded.

Skittles has gone to visit family with us from the very beginning. She has never been left anywhere. Even when my mom visits she brings her dog, Feeberz. Heck my grandmother will go to my moms and pick her up while my mom is working so she doesnt have to be alone all day! Even now with Gunner he'll go...maybe not to my dads tho, he isnt much on animals unless he is mounting them(taxidermists, lol). Before Gunner when we made our 1st trip to my dads I asked him if Skittles could come, becuz if she couldnt well then we werent coming to visit and we'd just see them next time they came down. They are my furkids! Just love 'em to pieces.

I'm lucky that I have my best friend live less than a mile away from me and my family is here so if we have to leave the babies behind, they are in great hands! But they go almost everywhere with us except when we travel to baseball tournaments (my youngest has been playing tournament ball since he was 8 - will be 13 next month). I don't want to risk their health out at a hot baseball field and most hotels won't allow pets so they stay behind and get pampered by others for the week-end
