    HI Simon, OK OK!! I get it! haha.. no really Im truly grateful for all the advice. I thought it would be harder for him to be without us for a month, but likely not!

    wow, what great information you have , obviously from experience! Id love it if you could keep me posted on what your situation turns out to be.
    send me an email at angievavra@shaw.ca
    I would have asked too about visiting and I have to be assured our dog doesnt end up on another plane! Im thinking more and more about finding someone to come here and stay. that perfect person. 🙂
    You can try and check out air transat they are usually the discount flights , they allow dogs too.
    thanks and hope to hear back from you!

    raihnman and maravilla, thanks so much! I will definatly check out everything you have given me. I so appreciate your help!
    I am concerend about the “rules” when we get there. maravilla, Im a bit confused, so did you end up actually paying the fee of 100 plus 80 the consulate wanted ?
    how was your dog when you arrived?
    Does anyone know about the stopovers? can u go get your dog if its a few hours?
    Im really thinking we may not bring him out of concern for him . Just need a good caretaker for him! Thats really why we want to bring him.

    thank you so much!

    Thanks Everyone for all your help in this. I know its only one month , but Bently is our babe, (he’s 14 months old) BUT now I do have some concessions about bringing him. It does sound like a hassle but then maybe not. I guess you have to have your ducks in a row “just in case”.. it is another country. Never know what can happen.
    We are actually thinking about being in CR in 2009 for 6 months maybe longer, so this is the reason for the months stay. checking things out..

    Now, did I mention we are in Canada. So Im wondering who I could get the LEGAL info (in writing)from for Canada. US and other countries have different rules.

    We actually have found several places to rent for a month that allow dogs. I was pleasantly surprised! we have decided on a place but havent paid yet.In Playa Coco, a condo and minutes to the beach. Our dog loves the water , of course!

    Thank you to all of you for your knowleged, if anyone else has been thru this please let me know. Especially for Canadians.

    Anyone want to housesit in Kelowna BC for a month and take extra special care of our pup?? 🙂 kidding.. maybe..
