Where’s my dad?’“It causes them extreme stress, and I think that’s where a lot of people are today.”Quinn said those who aren’t comfortable leaving their pets home alone or in a kennel can always have a dog service check on them, or sign them up for doggy daycare.“Personally, I kennel my dog when they’re young, and there’s kennel games to make it a good time and a happy place.“Not everyone thinks that’s a safe place — but what if that (destroyed) garbage bag was your couch? What if that garbage bag was an electric cord? You want your dog safe.” Coronavirus — Dogs could benefit from Manitoba’s
