I Need Help!!!!!
 
We are flying to NY for Christmas...will be leaving Dec 22 and returning on Jan 2. Hubby bought the tickets for us a long time ago and he bought them from Southwest Airlines. I just found out that they do not allow you to travel with your dogs!!!!!!!! not even under cabin!!!!!!!!!! :thumbdown :thumbdown they said only "special assistance dogs" are allowed. you know the ones that lead the blind, deaf, etc..... so it is looking like i can't take my baby with me :cry2: :cry2:

I have a little time on my hands...but I need to find a place for my baby to stay :cry2: I am so sad about this. I have never been away from her for this long. I am going to go NUTS. my best friend would watch her...but she just comes to the house and lets the dogs out and feeds them. there is no real interaction. I would love for her to have a place to go where she would get attention and have other pups to play with.

I really don't know what to do. I know there are lots of YT members that have BIG hearts....I am reaching out. can anyone help me????? I know how hectic the Holidays can be....so this is asking a LOT. I just don't know what else to do :(

Ooooh I would LOVEEE to take Maggie - but I am in NY :(

bdbmamaw 10-23-2007 08:32 AM
I wish I was close. I'd watch your baby in a 'heart-beat'!

I have tried to travel with my babies and I have had to always avoid Southwest because of their policy on animals. It stinks! Next time try Continental. I have always found tickets with them for less than Southwest on Orbitz.

Good luck, girl!

........I wish I wasn't so far away (PA)...........we would love to have Maggie w us as a Christmas guest!..........

pepe mint 10-23-2007 08:38 AM
I would even be willing to drive for a couple of hours if there is anyone within driving distance

i am going to be asking some of my friends. i seriously doubt i will have any luck there. from what i gather, they are traveling for the holidays as well :(

autumn star 10-23-2007 08:42 AM
I wish I lived closer. I would help out in a heart beat! Good luck I am sure you will find a YT to help!:thumbup:

pepe mint 10-23-2007 08:44 AM
i wonder if I can get some kind of certificate saying she is a service dog?? i can pretend to need a service dog!!!

that's so wrong..isn't it?!?!????

Ellie May 10-23-2007 08:45 AM
I would never ever let Ellie go on a plane alone but is that something you are willing to do with Maggie? Could you just send her on another plane and meet up with her? I totally understand if that's not an option though.

i had thought about this but it is going to be sooooooo cold and i am afraid for her to fly in that weather.

i am going to stop by my vets office and see if any of the assistants there would want to watch her. they have all gotten to know us quite well :) and seem to really adore her. it is just hard because of the time of year. everyone is so busy for holidays. :(

cockerduchess 10-23-2007 08:51 AM
I would love to help you out but I'm in Oklahoma.

cj_michi 10-23-2007 08:52 AM
I have never personally left my baby at a pet hotel but I know my older brother has done that with his two beagels. He's in the Air force an there are times were is is called and he needs to leave the dogs behind. I believe they have been taken care of pretty good. Or may be a dog sitter that can go to your house.

This would be a good idea if your willing to do it and don't want to leave your baby behind. Just make sure she gets to NY around the same time you do.

Good luck in finding someone to take care of your baby. I which i lived closer to you, I would of volunteered to take her while you were in NY.

We'd love to have Christmas guests, but we live in Florida.

chachi 10-23-2007 09:06 AM
I would watch her if you were closer to me

hha 10-23-2007 09:15 AM
If you're willing to drive 6 hours to SC, I will watch her..we live in the western part of SC..other than that, you could board her out, but, for the most part they're in cages..

LuvMyPrinceKobi 10-23-2007 09:18 AM
Just bumping this for you...so sorry to hear about this :( I'm not close and will be traveling for the holidays myself. Keep asking around on here and hopefully you can find someone! Good luck!

Izzy Princess 10-23-2007 09:20 AM
Phooey!!! We live to far too and we would love to take Maggie to play with Izzy.:( You have gotten good suggestions - try Continental.

amanda350 10-23-2007 09:25 AM
I live in Murfreesboro and would be happy to watch her. I am a stay at home mother so I have lots of time. Kallie and Stewie are 18 and 19 weeks and love to play.. I also have a very lazy and older golden retriever that minds her own buisness but she is in the house with us as well in case that is a concern for you. She lets Kallie and Stewie climb all over her.. My children are very gentle with the dogs. PM me if you are interested.. Maggie would fit right in..If it makes you feel any better about not knowing me, my husband is a police officer so we are good honest people...

crystalsmom 10-23-2007 09:28 AM
I don't know how long you will be gone but I would go with keeping her in her own home. If you had the person come in to feed and walk her that you had before, could you get a neighbor to come in mid day and at bed time. I find they are really happier in their own home but of course this is a decision you have to make.

Wish I was closer so I could help in some way.

ellie81 10-23-2007 09:29 AM
oh I'm so sorry!!!! I would watch her if I were closer!
I would ship her in another plane with tons of blankets!!!!

crystalsmom 10-23-2007 09:30 AM
Oh I didn't see you got an offer and it sounds close to you.

Sugar's Mom 10-23-2007 09:59 AM
Are your tickets refundable ?With such a long notice, they might be.

Superstarkba 10-23-2007 10:58 AM
Oh, I would LOVE to get her!! I could meet you half way!! Call me and talk to me about it:)

Good luck!

drawlins27 10-23-2007 12:06 PM
If that falls through, then I could keep her as well. As long as she wouldn't mind putting up with Lily and Dixie who love to play 24/7 :rolleyes:

hha 10-23-2007 12:56 PM
