we luv lexi
Well-known member
hey all,
just a question maybe i can get advice....
i know all our cavvys love us so much they cant bear to be away from us, BUT...my husband and I both work the night shift as nurses in the hospital, im part-time so i only have to work 2 days a week but every so often (maybe 2-3times per month) my husband and i have to work the same nights so lexi gets left alone for about 8 hours til we come home in the morning. So b/c of our night shift schedules we obviously cant get a dog walker or doggy daycare or a babysitter at 3am and she has really bad seperation anxiety and i feel so bad for her! we leave her in a closed off space in the hallway with a gate and some toys and her bed and we leave the tv on, but all i can think about while im at work is my little lexi crying her beautiful little eyes out
we leave her at my grandparents house occasionally but i feel like a burden sometimes since they're older and i dont want to impose on anyone so...
is there anything i can do to make her time away from us a little less painful? any suggestions? dont forget we're talking middle of the night...
oh and shes 6months old now...my poor baby. im just thankful this is only like twice a month.
sorry this was long...
thanks
