By In House session - do you mean the trainer coming to your house? I am assuming you mean at their place of work.

Certainly puppy training classes are offered to pups at 3 months of age at places of establishment; but they will be kept on a leash. With Doggy day care, the dogs are running around all together off leash and playing/wrestling and the requirement for Vaccinations may be a bit different with this situation - they usually require their second round of shots in order to participate in a Day Care situation; at least in my area they do.

As Susan stated, Lulu survived; it may have helped a bit to have Tucker in the same room for entertainment(even if she was just able to watch him) from the X-pen. Your Milo will survive also; there are lots of people that work; and their animals are home all day. Would hubby be willing to come home during lunch?

If you are considering someone coming to your home to Take Milo out at lunch and walk him/feed and potty him - Check the Yellow pages in your area(many people have their advertisments there) -as I suggested before, check with your vet. I know my vet and places like Petco or PetSmart usually have business cards from people who do this as a service. I would check with your vet first and see if anyone there has heard of anyone in your area who they have heard good things about.

Also, I think Fluffypants(Jackie) has someone who comes into their place during the lunch hour to take care of Jackie. I am not sure if she is still doing this, but you could PM her and ask her how she likes this set up and how it has worked for her.
