I love dogs. Unfortunately, I travel every week for work. Wondering, If there are options which can allow me to adopt a dog. Is there anyone who owns a dog while traveling?

I suggest looking at volunteering at your local humane society / animal shelter by playing with or walking dogs. That could be a good way to get your dog fix and also really benefits the dogs.

^Piggybacking on this. LOTS of rescues are desperate for people who are willing to be a weekend foster home for dogs. You take the dog home for a weekend and bring it back to the rescue.
These dogs often need some 1 on 1 attention and love.

I actually just got a newsletter from the rescue where I got my dog. There’s a whole page devoted to their weekend foster program highlighting the benefits and asking for more volunteers.
It says that dogs who are fostered over the weekend come back calmer, better behaved and more social. Dogs newly arrived to the rescue are sometimes getting their first decent sleep and human bonding time. Fostered dogs are more likely to be adopted and help reduce strain on the shelter and its volunteers.

These are great suggestions. Gives me a hope. I will start from weekend foster home option ♥

We both travel, so our dog stays with her parents while we are gone. It’s good that it keeps them busy, but bad that we both miss him terribly. A dog can be a lot of work, especially if you are young and don’t have a back up plan. Kenneling is expensive as well. Those costs can add up to over a grand.

I travel every week. And don't have family close by. The cost add up! But one of my two fur babies (both rescues) is 12. I could never rehome them.
And I second the volunteering route, you get pups to love on and no high vet or sitter bills!

I just looked into my city’s foster program, and they actually find a sitter for you if you travel on business! I’m sure this wouldn’t work if you traveled M-Th every week, but maybe for those who travel more rarely.

Is it better to take out a personal loan for credit card debt vs a debt consolidation? I decided to do a personal loan with a bank I already have a mortgage with. I did 16% for three years vs having multiple credit cards with 25% interest. The loan covers two of my four credit cards. But a friend said I could’ve gotten a better deal with debt consolidation bc they have relationships with credit card companies.

Need advice. Have some credit card debt that I’ve been working to pay off. Have made progress but want to lower it quickly. We have dual income, with a house (~$300k in equity), 1 kid and 1 on the way. I’ve looked into debt consolidation via HELOC but also have ~$80k in vested equity in my company that I haven’t touched. Get equity refreshes every year. Would it be smarter to cash out $15k-$20k of that to pay debt vs. a HELOC at ~5% given that will still require mthly payments
