Holiday plans

I'm just putting in for my holiday dates for work and I'm realising that now I have a pup I just can't contemplate jetting off somewhere and putting her into kennels.

At the time I was shocked and could only think of getting the damaged vehicle and myself to the hotel where I was staying and where I knew there would be close relatives. Not having been in such a situation before it was only in...
