I can still see her big brown eyes before I adopted her. Sad, too big for her cage, 15 lbs underweight bc the food was dried corn preserved to stay in a bag forever.

I really would like to travel, but not if Emma has to go in a cage or a kennel. A little help here. I'm sure it goes ok for a lot of dogs...
You are not alone Kitty! We can't bear to leave our 7 year old Cairn either! I keep saying I'm going to find a home sitter but my husband says he would not enjoy the trip away from him so we just go places where we can take him! It really limits our travel!
