Can he sleep in the car?

[ExitPursuedByABear]

Our doggy care had let us down this weekend. All kennels are full and we are going to a wedding. The only option seems to be to take him with us and him sleep in the car. Anyone else done this?

When we are away competing ares are left in the van over night but it has caging in there and we have all the doors open with uv sheeting over the van/ windscreen. We shut the doors at night and they have air con running. We are also looking into getting an alarm that lets you know if they van etc gets over an certain temp. All of ours love sleeping in there and cant wait to get going when they see us loading it up

He will be fine at home. Best solution. Less worry and stress for you. Enjoy your wedding!

Still ongoing. Brace still in place. Appt at the dental hospital a week on Friday when hoping they will remove it but will probably need implants later which will cost a bloody fortune. Considering suing my father. Is that bad?

[ExitPursuedByABear]

Me neither. Which is why he normally goes to our Admin lady.

Sigh. I prefer to not leave him at all.

[ExitPursuedByABear]

Oh the one on the top near the sheep trials? What do you do with yours then?

[ExitPursuedByABear]

You wouldn't want him with yours. He is a twat.

A much loved twat of course.

I was going to pm you to find out what you do with yours but the neighbour has come up trumps.

Which one at Holmfirth?

He hates kennels with a passion.

We did this with our old dog a couple of times, she was fine, and much more settled than when we took her to kennels. Hope you enjoy the wedding.

The older children I know are all getting their A level results tomorrow so will be out on the lash on Friday night.

The neighbour is very doting and I am sure he will get over it. He sleeps alone downstairs anyway.

We used to do this with our dog when we went on holiday as they were so much happier than in kennels.

Just to say, my dog sleeps in the car when we go camping, he likes it more than home!

It's not ideal but its better than the car ! Do you not have any friends with older kids that could come and sleep for the night ?

[ExitPursuedByABear]

Thanks all for your input. I had nightmares last night about him sleeping in the car, so I have found a neighbour who will take him out for a couple of walks and let him out for a wee last thing at night.

Now - will he be ok on his own in the house all night ?
