i am somewhat sad that saratoga springs is out of the running, but i’m also somewhat happy i don’t have to endure your smack talk against it now. 😉 we love saratoga!

I am sure. Austin seems to be the place to be if you have a dog.

Heh, I’d love a US vs. Canada challenge. Though I fear we’d lose due to lack of numbers. There just don’t seem to be nearly as many Canadian pet bloggers. Or maybe I’m just looking in the wrong places?

When I lived in southern Alberta the US border was very close and I went shopping in Montana all the time. Nova Scotia doesn’t border much of anything (sorry New Brunswick…) and now that the Maine ferry is closed down the States seem so far away. It’s not that I don’t think it’s worth visiting, not by a long shot, it just seems like work. Especially since my passport is long expired! I really need to get on that…

And I use doggie “prewash” too–great for recyclables, dinner dishes, pots and pans….

I love your very creative “trash talking!” – I’m hoping Cape May makes it to the next round just to see what you come up with next! =D Bring on Sonoma, CA!!

I voted for Cape May already! There are lots of great pet friendly places out that way.

Thanks for the vote, Jodi.

And you’re probably right in general about the west being more dog friendly. I think less congestion and warm temps go hand in hand to create the most dog friendly places.

I wouldn’t mind coming back as one of your dogs either. But I can’t guarantee I’d sit on my bed while you ate dinner. 🙂 As Honey would say, “someone’s gotta supervise the dinner.”

My mother says, she would like to come back as one of my dogs. 🙂 I like to give my dogs whatever I can because I know what they give me. 🙂

If everyone were kinder in general what a nice place this world would be.

Oh, Jodi, I certainly hope you will. And post a video tape of it on your blog. 🙂

As for spoiling, I don’t think the world is suffering because any creature is being treated too well. We need a whole lot more spoiling going on.
