Dog during training

[AirMugsy]

My friend has 2 regional offers and I offered to watch his dog during training.. He thinks he might be able to get by, by keeping the dog with him at the hotel during indoc, etc. Any suggestions for him? Have you heard of people bringing pets to training before?

Bring the dog to training? Tell me this isn't happening.

I know,, I keep telling him its a bad idea

If the hotel doesn't have a problem with it, he'll probably be fine, but distracted at a time he needs full concentration.

If the hotel doesn't allow pets, it'll be the shortest indoc he'll ever go through.

Peace.

Tell him to bring the dog. Depending on what regional he's at, he might have to eat it later on to survive.

Wandering if your jumpseat is available...... for my dog and I?

Put the dog in kennel, that's what I did. Some are very luxurious and take good care of your dog; of course it depends on your budget.

Sooooo, what is his master plan once he is on line and gone 20 days a month?

This is a combination of what I'm doing, just a suggestion. (I live in base)

1) Get a non-pilot roommate who love dogs
2) Bid reserve and proffer same day trip if allowed
3) Get a petsitter
4) Doggie door if you live in a house
