Albert,

I wasn't reading into your post, just more justifying my reasoning. But I
have gotten grief over my decision for my choices in regards leaving her.
Sorry not taking it out on you. Its hard on the dogs at convention. Some
dogs can handle the stress, some can't. There is just so much going on, so
much to do at convention. I would rather give emma a vacation. Plus I am
about to start full time school, plus being married, and other activities.
Its just a lot. She needs the vacation and I need it too.

Oh do not at all read into my inquiry. I was just asking. I vacillate
between doing that myself. But since your guide will be on a mini vacation
himself more power to you and your pup.

Emma is an experienced guide, has traveled with me to several conventions,
Washington seminars, and other events. But the convention is stressful on
me, much less Emma. I frankly do not wish to subject her to that sort of
stress, if need be. It is not that she can't handle the stress, but I choose
for her not too. The puppy sitter I will be leaving her at, has other pups,
who were to be guides but because of health reasons can't. Emma will have a
great time, and be able to relax and have fun playing.   

Sorry if anyone thinks that is strange or horrible of me. But this is my
choice, and my guide.

Why are you not taking your guide with you?

Subject: [nagdu] pupp sitters

Hello listers,

In a little over a week, my guide will be staying with a pup sitter while I
attend the national convention. The pup sitter is a former sitter for the
school I received my pup from. She will be watching Emma for 10 days. So
here is my question, What is the going rate for kenneling a pup? Or for pup
sitters? I have explained to her that I am by no means rich, but would like
to pay her something. Kenneling is very expensive, so I know it has to be
way under that. Any ideas please let me know. If you feel more comfortable
emailing me off list, please do at marsha.drenth at gmail.com 

Thank you,

marsha
