You love your dog. I understand. I love my dog, too. However, I have to be honest, I love him a little less when I have to travel with him.
I know. It’s harsh and I would never say it to his cute little puppy dog face, but traveling with your dog makes everything more difficult and more stressful. In my years of puppy raising and body schlepping, I’ve found that the best way to ensure that “man’s best friend” remains your best friend is not to take him with you when you go on the road.
If you can’t bear the thought of boarding your dog due to threat of germs, foul treatment or gangs of canine low lives, you may want to consider services like PetWatchClub that will help you to find someone trustworthy to watch your dog while you’re out of town. This, of course, assumes you have no friends of your own to do it for you.
I’m not judging.
