Germany Bound TONIGHT!

[DoggiesAreTheBest]

I haven't been on PT for a while, but wanted to stop by and let you know Andrew, Drake, and I are leaving the US tonight @ 8 PM to go to Germany. We arrive in Frankfurt sometime during the day tomorrow.

Drake has all his paperwork so that he isn't quarantined upon arrival. He is also used to his crate (loves it as a matter of fact) and has a sedative that he will take before getting on the flight to make his trip easier. I am worried sick about him. His last flying experience was not too pleasant (delayed flight and he was in the crate for almost 23 hours). I am terrified they will put him on the wrong plane!!! He is out right now with his Daddy running on the trails.

Our bags are packed and goodbyes have been said. I am very anxious and excited to start new adventures in Europe. We received bad news a few weeks ago; Andrew will be going to Iraq about a month after we get to Germany. I got the job with the Department of Defense as a translator. I start work after Andrew leaves.

Please keep us in your thoughts. Wish us luck on our journey!

Good luck!!!! I am sure that Drake will be fine. He is such a great dog. I'm sorry Andrew is being deployed. I was hoping that he would avoid that. That's great that you got a job that quickly, but, I'm not surprised. I hope that you will be able to join us again on Pet Talk when you get there and get settled.

Souraya,
have a good trip to Germany. I hope all goes well for the three of you, that Drake will be fine on his way to his new home, and that Andrew will be safe in Iraq.
We'll always be anxious to hear how everything is going and wish you the best.

[Aspen and Misty]

You are in prayers! Good luck!! We want TONS of pics of Germeny! How long will you be living there?

Souraya,

I hope your trip over goes well and there is no problem with Draker (no delayed flights or anything else).

I'm glad to hear that you all are doing fine, you've been missed here!

I'm sorry Andrew will be deployed so soon after arriving. At least you have a little time together there before he leaves.

Congratulations on getting the job!

Please let us know how everything is as soon as you can

Take care!

Your friend
Anna

Hey, we'vem issed you two!
Got any pictures for us before ya leave?
Good Luck!! Have fun on the rest of your trip!

Good luck with your trip. I would be so nervous about leaving my dog like that, as well. I think it's inhumane. If I had my way, he'd be in a seat right beside me. I think it would be wonderful to see Europe, although maybe under different circumstances.

We look forward to hearing all about your adventures when you can post again, and wish you all three well on your adventure - ahem - trip. How cool that you will be working for the DoD, that ought to have some interesting moments involved that you probably won't be able to tell us about! Perhaps you'll be able to meet some of the European Pet-Talkers, too, although I am sure Filou and Tigris might not want to meet Drake!

Touch back in when you can,

Lots of hugs, and an extra biscuit for Drakers!

[lovemyshiba]

I think I'm a bit late, but wishing you the best anyway.
I hope you all have a safe trip, and keep in touch when you are settled in.

[K9karen]

Souraya, hope you all arrived safely. Please try to keep in touch with us! I was hoping Andrew wouldn't be sent to Iraq. Please tell him that he'll be in my prayers for uneventful missions and a safe return. {Bear Hugs}to all of you!

Oh Boy - what a huge move for you!

Congrats on your new job, sorry that Andrew has to leave so soon after arriving in Germany, and wishing Drake the very, very quickest of flights .........

Let us know when you are safe and sound ....
