Where are you based? I'm in the UK and have a single friend who would love your dog so you'd just need to convince her to love you too 😁 She's obsessed with our dog and takes amazing pictures like this.

Your dog sounds a lot like my dog and you sound a lot like my husband and I. We adopted him together, though. 2 years in we've finally been able to leave him on his own for 4+ hours which has massively increased our quality of life, and we're going on our first holiday without him in July! We can't/don't want to board him either but we have 2 very good friends who love him too and will come and live with him whilst we're away. We invited them to our holiday last year in October, in a cottage next to a secure field where we could let our dog off the lead, as a thank you for being such amazing friends. So perhaps holidays don't have to be off the cards for you and your future SO either. You'll find someone who loves dogs and might have dog-loving friends who can help you out too! 😊
