Moving Plans

posted by DoggiesAreTheBest :It will take more than a move to Germany to get rid of me!! I have my laptop that will be going with me to AL, AZ, and Hiedelberg! >>>>>>

I am glad you posted this, because I would certainly
miss you. I was already starting to go through with-drawls.
We will all get to see and share Germany through
your eyes.

I am willing to assist with the move. What dates in Feb will the move take place?

[wolf_Q]

Congrats!! I bet it will be beautiful in Germany, and I'm sure you will enjoy it. Can't wait to see new pics of Drake in his new surroundings!

Will Drake have to stay in quarantine at all, and for how long? I recently talked to someone that moved from England, their dog had to be quarantined for about a month.

Wow that's a lot of moving! I was wondering about quarantine too - I have a friend in the process of moving to England and they are extremely strict about animals since apparently they don't have rabies there and want to keep it that way. So Drake's been to France? It sounds like he's done a lot more traveling than me the lucky dog!

Congratulations

Scott, Thank you for your offer. I am already moved into our house in AL. So, when February comes, I just have to move my clothes and my bed.

Sabies, Drake has been to France and Mexico. Both were very fun trips. I will have to dig up some pictures. We have also taken Drake all over America. Many of our trips were made by car so that he can tag along. Very fun times!

According to the in-processing office at Ft. Rucker, Drake may be subject to quarantine if we don't have all the right paperwork. That is why I am already getting busy. In addition to a health certificate, we will have to provide Rabies certificate, prrof of ownership, proof of pet liabilty insurance, proof of pet owners' competence (where do you get that?), and a evaluation of temperament. All these have to be notarized and sent to the German Embassy so that they may certify them. Then, if all the paperwork is approved, Drake won't be quarantined. I will get all this done way before the move. The Health Certificate is only valid for 10 days, so that will have to be done very last minute.

I don't think Drake will take too well to quarantine. If he has to be quarantine, they will have to give us a big kennel for 2 so his mommy to stay by his side!

Congratulations on getting the post you wanted! My brother was stationed in Mannheim when he was in Germany, and loved the countryside and the history surrounding him everywhere.

Karen, that's my Neck of the Woods. I grew up near Mannheim.

Souraya, I hope you guys like it in Heidelberg, especially Drake.
If he doesn't, i would love to keep him.

Souraya, wow, you're moving into our neighbour Well, Germany is much closer to Belgium than US is. I don't remember exactly where Heidelberg is, but I used to have a penpal from there.
I hope you'll enjoy your stay in Europe!

[Tanya&Fritz]

Heidelberg? I can't believe it! I spent 4 years in Baden (that's the Canadian base in Germany). You're going to love it so much there

[anna_66]

I'm glad to hear that you, Andrew & Drake are finally going to all be living together! I know you must have been wanting this for a very long time
I bet you will all love living there, expecially since it's where you wanted to go.
You'll have to keep us posted with lots of pictures & updates on everything when you do move there.
We would all go through withdrawls without pictures of Drake

When my nephew (who is in the Air Force) and his family were transferred to Bahrain, they took their one dog with them. There they acquired another (shelter) dog and were subsequently assigned to Okinawa where they acquired another (shelter) dog. They have since come back to the States with their 3 dogs.
