I have a question.......

I would looooove to someday be able to attend one of these meetings.... but I would have to fly to and not sure about the doggies tagging along.....(flight rules and all, I mean do I need anything special when flying other country, do they need quarantine?).......

well the main question is.....IF I flied my doggies with me (after clearing out all the requirements for it) I could send the application and money and all, but would I have to send them like 3 months ahead so they can get it on time?, will they ever ship me the permit? will they even give me one being from other country?..... what about if our "rabies" law is different..... I mean we have rabies campaing every year and my girls get their shot if not every year one yes one don´t..... the rest of the shots are just given as puppies (I don´t over vaccinate)......and what if I do my own shots...... for rabies only if you go to a vet office they MAY give you a license proving so, but if you got to free campaings they just give you a paper stating you did (and this is goverment given)...... and besides we even have different types of vaccines than the ones in the states.......different "cepas" (not sure translation of that )
I´m not going this year but maybe I can plan for the next one with more time and knowledge

Interesting about the bags.

... without bags, or warning of no bags, how do they expect you to pick it up?

And if they are telling those who come in to pick up their passes,
what are the doing with the ones who register by mail?
Shouldn't they be warned also?
(Phred or anyone else who registered by mail ~~ did you receive a warning?)

I got to *thinkin* 'bout this, an *thunk* maybe I otta <open> the Permit Envelope.

<ripp>

Full-sized envelope was <STUFFED> **NOT** with valuable info ...
ONE lonesome Laminated Permit Card ... with not so much as a half-sheet of
recycled paper to keep it company!

So much for pre-warning the mail-order folk about the pending Baggie Policy Change.

Matter of Fact ... I sent an EXTRA $10.00 as a "Donation" for "Dog Park Improvements" ...
which was
* NOT acknowledged
* NOT receipted
* apparently NOT very much appreciated

Maybe I shudda marked it "for the Baggie Fund".


Oh well ... maybe they're too busy to say "Thanks".

Isabell, maybe if you sent your application through one of us - and we could arrange to meet you and the doggies at the park with your permit, if you and the doggies are able to make it. I am not sure what your faxing capabilities are, but I know by now that we wouldn't rely on the Mexican postal system, seeing how few cards that were mailed from the US got to you!

[Cinder & Smoke]

do they need quarantine? ...

Will they ever ship me the permit?
Will they even give me one being from other country?

Well ... we'd all Love to see you in Ohio ...

BUTT I'd bet that would be one VERY Expensive plane ride from Mexico to Ohio!
And if you toss in a Doggie or two ... WOW! Big Bucks!

You'd spend a LOTTA Money for a 6 hour Picnic ... with no guarantee the sun would shine.

It might be more satisfying (and a darn lot CHEAPER) to round up some of the
SOUTHERN USA Pet Talkers and hold a Gathurin "down South".

Jump on the Internet and see how much the round-trip Airfare would be ...
you'd be flying into Toledo, or Columbus, Ohio as first choices;
and Cincinnati, or Cleveland, Ohio as second choices.

Everything else can be arranged with proper planning.

Oh you betcha Amy We leave next Friday! Only 5 more days of work! Doing the happy dance

Isabel that would be so wonderful if you could visit sometime. Like Phred said it would probably be heck of a lot cheaper if you decided to come without the dogs (even though we'd all love to meet them!)....we've got lots of extra dogs you could hang with

[Hellow]

I wish i could come but my dad and mom would have to come and i live WAY over here in georgia so if you hold one closer sometime i might just show up.

Hey FurKids ~

Got any Special Requests for Dawg Park Treets?

Or more to the Point - do you have any "Restrictions" -
or stuff you're NOT "supposed" to eat??

We're pretty sure lil Chipper hazza "short list" of acceptable treets ...
AnyBody ELSE need a special diet or treet?

Bowser "was" supposed to be on a super-restricted diet - Nuffin but Hills "s/d" inna kan ...
but since he went onna Hunger Strike about a week ago ...
Dad gives him ANYthing he'll even take a couple bytes of!

Last Sona-Gram sed that pesky "bladder stone" was STILL in there ...
so the "stone disolvin" "Steak-inna-Kan" dint seem to be doin much disolvin!
An now Bowz doesn't think it tasts like "steak" anymore ...
he'll munch a few pieces iffin it's wrappen inna Salami Slice ...
but "plain steak" wedges don't have much appeal.

So put Bowz down fur "Anything is Fine" ... he's back to bein Our kinda Dawg!

Chip ~
What's your Favorite (that your Mom approves of) ??

[k9krazee]

Anything edible -- and the Hoodlums will eat it!! Heck, it doesn't even have to be edible They're not too picky

[cyber-sibes]

We'll bake up a plate of doggie carob-chip cookies as a special treat! Sherman's on a diet, (it ain't just "all fluff" anymore ), but we'll look the other way for this special occasion.

[luvofallhorses]

I wish I wasn't so far away so I could come! I hope everyone has a great time! I will be looking forward to pictures.
