strange house with people and other dogs or home alone overnight?

[doggiemumma]

My mum has gone away for a week, i am responsible for her dog, have two dogs and 1 DD at home. All get on fine, my mums dog has been here all day and its all good, but he is just not settled. I have taken him back to my mums house for a bit (to give him his dinner mainly) and he instantly settled. He is a big dog and a bit arthritic and will sleep on his sofa at home but will have to be the floor here. Would it be really bad if i went to get him after our tea, then take him home to sleep, then fetch him in the morning? Literally round the corner so no hassle for me?

I would personally want him with me, I wouldn't be able to settle myself for worrying about him

You mention a sofa - is it a Dog sized sofa or a full sized one? If Dog sized, can you take it round your house?

If it's his first night with you, I would expect him to be a little unsettled, maybe when the DC are in bed and you relax on the sofa, he may also settle. If not, could one of you sleep round there with him? It's what we do when PiLs go away as our bitch won't accept another bitch in the house.
