Eeek, I was reading the posts on leaving bubs out in fenced yards for periods of time and now I don't know what to do.
We have to travel occasionally without our babies and boarding is a huge problem for me. The first time looked like a great facility - The dogs have huge outdoor runs where they could interact with others all day and brought in at night. When we picked them up they were filthy, covered with mud, and Sophie started submissive peeing. Syrus was extremely subdued.
Second time, new place similar results. Breaks my heart to have my kids so upset.
We are in the process of fencing in about 1 acre around our house and my next thought is to have a pet sitter come out, let them out during the day then put them inside garage at night. (The garage is bub proofed and where they stay at night already). But now I'm not liking that idea, but don't want them to have to be inside all day except for pet sitter twice a day visit.
My mom at 85 with health issues can't house sit anymore and my sister has a unique idea of pets (ie. they should be free).
What are opinions for better of three choices? Inside/outside?
Look for yet another facility?
Let them stay home but confined?
