I have her photo on my personalized checks! I purchased my bank checks online and I get to have the option to put her picture up front. I always use my checks and this way, I can always get to see her whenever I'm away.She's a cute Beagle, by the way. Maybe some of you would like this kind of idea. It saves money, too!, around 50% off the usual price (bank price)! I always remember my pet when I travel and you know why? I have her photo on my personalized checks!

Trust me, your dog would rather be with you but there are places that devote their days to making sure your dog is happy! Another idea is to find another dog owner, whose dog is your dogs best friend, and take turns caring for each others dog. Imagine being a dog and getting to play all day with your buddy! I have dogs that don't want to leave my kennel when their humans come to pick them up~ Check out your area for a kennel like mine. Start out with daycare to see if your dog likes them. Talk to other clients that go there. Do the other dogs look happy? You may have to drive out of your way and you may have to pay more than you like but hey, if your best friend is happy, you will be too!

It was hard for both of us. He didn`t eat almost anything and was just laying and looking at the door. It was only two days, so what would happen if I leave him for two weeks... With this comment I want to tell, that we need to think not only about us keeping them close to heart while traveling, but also about them staying behind.

Through out their travels I send slide shows to them of what their dog is up to at camp. It really helps shorten the distance. I've even put dogs on the phone with their humans. The fact of the matter is, you'll have a better time on your journey knowing your dog is having fun. I've cut vacations short because I was worried about my dog.

They say cats can read pictures in your mind. She sits there looking at me when I do this, so I feel it must work! I do get sad when I have to leave her, but this way I feel like she is not at home wondering what has happened to me!

I don't know if this was airline-approved or if she snuck it on in her purse. It drove everyone on the flight crazy the entire time. Anyway, my girlfriend likes to put a couple photos of her cat on our digital camera before we go away anywhere, but the video clip is an even better idea. Thanks!
