The word "Travel", actually has its roots in the word "Travail". No wonder then that horror stories on all modes are common.
Its hard enough without your pets, or kids for that matter. Your kids would feel abandoned if you leave them home on an ordinary vacation, and they will soon enough find out what they missed.
But dogs won't ever know what they missed. They will know only that you ain't there. And you weren't there with your dog most of the trip anyhow. And it won't be any better next time , either!
Travel IS travail for humans; but for animals it is travail on steroids! Leave the damn dog home next time.
Get someone who loves dogs to look in on him frequently - He will be better off in the long run.
