[quote=”maravilla”]you’re lucky i inserted punctuation!! jejeje i could’ve made it all one sentence! i met a woman just last week at the beach who told me she had read my article on the suicide of that woman who came here last summer. she admitted she was lucky that she hadn’t committed suicide because of all the horrid things that had happened to her here, including being robbed multiple times and having 5 different dogs poisoned. she also admitted she hadn’t heard any horror stories before she came here; everything seemed perfect, but in reality it was anything but. i must have a dozen or more stories just like that one. having said that, i admit to being one happy camper here. i love costa rica, warts and all, but then i am anything but a typical gringa.[/quote]
I’m worried about this dog poisoning–is that common? My friends and I are doing extensive research and thinking of retiring to CR, but our dogs are very important members of our family and we anticipate participating in rescue in CR.
