Eleanor,
I know your feelings too well.
Question...are you leaving her with your brother because you trust him implicitly or are you settling for your brother for convenience or fianacial reasons?
We have kenneled our dogs in a kennel that we inspected and trusted and it was easier because our had each other. If there is a kennel that you've heard of by word or mouth that is clean, secure and matches lonely dogs up with buddies for playtime, it's not a bad thing.
For us, trust is the foremost issue, whether it's a sitter or a facility.
If she stays with your brother...check in every day and stay as available by cell phone as you can.
I've labored over the issue of traveling and leaving my dogs for years. I hate to travel because of it.
Where are you vacationing? ~Denise
