How can i leave my dog easier?

Home More advice Pets & Animals

Whenever I have to leave for school, or work, or even a trip run into town for half hour, I feel terrible leaving my dog behind, even if my family is around. (he is my dog, not my families, and he is closer to me than anyone else.) My boyfriends family has been inviting me camping for weeks now, and this is my last free weekend this summer due to camping, but I can't bring my dog. My mom said she will care for him and such while I am gone, but I honestly started crying just thinking of leaving my dog behind, that is how close I am to him. I work nine hour shifts for 10 days straight starting Monday, so It would basically be like 13 days away from him, I just don't know if I should stay home with him, or go camping with his family..Having a dog is a bigger responsibility than I thought :/
