    When I decided to have furry babies I stopped going on vacations unless I can take all 5 with me . They love daily routine and no one can replace me. I love them and I don't miss any vacations ❤🐾❤️

      Same here (but for out of state surgery), especially since the last time we boarded the dogs. They separated them because they didn't tell us needed flu vax? I had to give them all the other vaxes, too. Gave them their food from home. Didn't matter because I think they forgot about them for 2days. My kid had coworker go & check on them. They both lost 5lbs, only 15lbs max to begin with. Then, my sweet boy blew up, went blind, within 2mths of the vaxes. Vet said autoimmune or something, will die within a yr. No other testing, took at word. Lasted 2yrs. I regret not taking him elsewhere for testing & followup. We were living paycheck to paycheck, so... But maybe he had diabetes or hypothyroidism, I don't know. Just another one of my regrets, guilt of not doing enough.

      As a long time pet sitter to help pets accept me in their home I visit at least 2x before I will be staying while the owners are gone. In addition I make sure the owners give me a hug, to show with body language that I am welcome in the house by their owners, I give the pet's favorite treat, pet them and get a hug on leaving from the visit (again, body language that I'm welcome). Keeping the pets in their home, eating their normal food at their accustomed times, play times, treat times, ..., so far so good most of my charges are happy to see their owners again but not pouty, or frantic. 😊

    My dog tells the time better than I do. And yes, they have a large range of emotions....I could never leave my dog, I did once for a few months and she turned into Hitachi. Thankfully I returned but I'll try to never do that to her again, Lord willing. She means too much to me.

    As my dog got older (he's 14) he put his foot down and kiboshed my going anywhere without him. I would run errands and watch him on the nanny cam and he'd pitifully howl, cry, his mini seizures were even sometimes triggered. So no more vacations unless he's allowed to go along. I took him to work with me to my part time office job but now I work from home. I mainly only shop in stores that are pet friendly. There are only a few instances where he's not able to come along such as my doctor appointments. He rules my life. This is not ideal but he's my baby. I know it would not work for most.

    At the end if the day they are still a Dog. That being said: I did some serious bedroom changing around. Different bed different layout - the cardinal sin - I moved to dog ramp. Changed sleeping sides etc. It was funny to watch them react. We have moved around the country many times... After a few minutes/hours all is right with the world. Gotta love 'em.🐾🐾

    Thank you so much for this video. I could see changes rather dramatic and really sad with my dogs playmate. His parents would vacay regularly and he either had myself or another person taking care of him. He used to go outside and race indoors to hide in a certain bedroom and that was sad and concerning. After I mentioned to his parents he was stressed and missing them now when they go away he doesn’t do that anymore and instead when I let him outside I can’t get him inside and neither can his parents. Years ago I said his play with my boy was “off” and finally they took him to the vet and was diagnosed hypothyroid. 😮
    Course with hypothyroid (as I have it oddly) depression is associated. Wow even our pets are complex. Thanks again Doc! ❤

      From my experience, it helped a lot!! She interacted with me when on camera, and followed my commands seamlessly. She was happy and we transitioned smoothly between my work and off days. I especially realized this made a difference when I skipped video calls and opted for voice calls only for a few days (I was so tired from work). She completely ignored me for a whole day when I came for the weekend! Straight up hid behind her daddy and refused to look at me... pretended she couldn't hear me, unless I had a treat lol. Oh, a part of me diiiieeeed. The very next morning, she finally couldn't resist and plopped down on my chest. I never let a day go by without her seeing me ever again (I always got pics from the hubbs so I was always happy lol). She was a huskylab, for reference. Still can't believe I'm saying this, but Rest in Paradise, my sweet Nala!! I love you! ♡ 2011 - 2024 ♡

    If my dog isn't welcome, I'm not going. I had to make this decision when I learned early on that my rescue dog has such terrible seperation anxiety that she gets a devastating gi bleed if I leave her behind. Strange behavior is one thing, life threatening illness is another. As long as her eyes are on me at all times, we live a very happy and healthy life. She is worth any sacrifice I've had to make for her wellbeing. It's just me and her and the love and joy we share makes any possible inconvenience meaningless.

      The commercials for farmer's dog are real. Dog health improves after switching to better food like Farmer's dog.
