I agree, get a good house sitter or take her! We plan our trips where the guys can go with us. They have never been in a kennel. Little trouble sometimes but we make it work.
Hello, we have 2 longhaired babies! 1 black/cream and I guess the other would be called dapple! 1 boy/1 girl. We also had a beautiful girl named Gypsy for 12 years to she passed away.
Boy I sure love these dogs!
