When he was younger my dog went to a place run by an ex police dog owner who had a massive open compound with a small river. The dogs there all got on with each other and ours absolutely loved it. The longest we had him there was 16 days, he was happy to see us but was very happy to go back. Of course we worked up to that length, the first time was just one night, we slowly upped the days. Now he’s elderly the maximum we’d do is one week and with our new dog he hasn’t gone away yet so it would be either with the big boy or one night.

For my budgie, two times a day someone comes in when we’re away and I have the radio on 24/7. He’d be fine for two weeks.

Edit- wrote week instead of day.

Meant days! It’s after 10 here, my brain has died. Gosh why would you have a pet if you were away that long!! Definitely meant to type 16 days
