Will my dog still love me after staying with my boyfriend for 2 weeks?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Male | neutered | 1 year and 7 months old

I have to go on a 2-week trip, and will be leaving my dog with my boyfriend. We live together. Will my dog favor my boyfriend over me after this or not? My dog and I are very close.

Not necessarily. Your dog is likely going to stay loyal to you because you are his owner and have been with him the longest. They don't call them man's best friend for nothing! : ) Also dogs don't easily forget. No worries. Enjoy your trip! Take care.
