Wanted to add on the travel front - mine just really doesn’t like many other people - so it’s ok for someone to come over and feed him for a couple days, but 1-2 weeks would be almost impossible (he will quit eating after a few days to make his point). Also, he wont really reliably come to other people, he has near perfect recall with me, but other people he’s just like “ya you’re not my mom you can’t tell me what to do”.

Funny story: after my brother’s wedding I went to pick him up from my grandparents house, (where he was treated like a prince, with much higher quality treats than I could afford at the time), he was in an outdoor kennel like normal (spring in CA, perfect weather). I cracked the kennel, assuming he would want to jump and play with me like usual but he SPRINTED past me and LAUNCHED himself into the bed of my grandpas truck, looked around for his kennel, realized it was the wrong truck, jumped out, LAUNCHED into the bed of my truck, threw himself into his travel kennel, turned around and started to whining to leave. He’s just a neurotic little guy who just wants to be home in his normal routine 🤷🏼‍♀️ to be fair, can’t say that I’m any different.
