[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, if you can't get someone to watch the dog on short notice, you and DH will have to stay home, right? Problem solved and hopefully Dh will step up next time. [/quote]

Tell him that you need to know when to schedule the dog-sitter, because if you don't have a dog-sitter, you can't go.  Repeat for any other relevant factors--scheduling leave for work, etc.  If he can't be bothered to get the information in time, then the natural consequence is that you don't go on the trip.

Or call your MIL and get the information.  [/quote]

I'm on this team. If it is important to him, he needs to participate. If he doesn't pull his own weight, well, he can't be mad at you if it falls apart. "Poor planning on your part does not constitute and emergency on my part."  Mild example, my husband often forgets his sunglasses. I used to remind him. But then, I decided, he's a grown as man. Maybe if he has to squint into the sun for an 8 hour drive, he'll remember them in the future. And if he doesn't, oh well.[/quote]
