I guess you'd call it a "spot on", you rub it on the back of the dog's neck once a month for the season. It goes by weight, this package is for a dog of 65lbs was $140. It's made by Pfizer. I've seen a place called "Dogs at Camp" but, I suppose, the names not unique, where's the one you're thinking of ?

Its between Uxbridge and Port Perry http://www.dogsatcamp.com/where.html

It looks good cos they are not in runs all day with only 2 outing, we are staying with familly untill we can rent hopefully no more than a month, they live in Whitby and we are looking at that and surrounding areas.
The only problem with boarding them is me, because of my job i am really over picky i suppose, but then you can never be too picky with your children. If you can advise of any good places around the area please let me know. Lilly May and Murphy are very lively young english springers so they need lots of exercise and love.

That is the place I drove past but I don't know anything about it. Our neighbours leave their dog somewhere near there and have been happy with the place they use. They're away at the moment but I'll ask them the name when next I see them.

I have heard, although I haven't checked it out, that vets can provide you with names of approved pet "foster parents". You may want to consider that as an alternative to a canine prison.

Hi guys if it helps we're in the process of waiting for blood tests for candy our 9 year old labrador retreiver, i've spoken in person to defra, if she is micro chipped and rabies vaccinated and a helth check a few days before flying all will be fine flying uk to canada. our problem is our move to canada has happened really quick we did'nt know for sure weather or not we we're going to take the job offer, so we we're a bit unprepaired, we took candy to the vet who told us that we needed the rabies jab immediately so we got that done the same day, candy can not have the blood test for 22 days, so we're booked in with the vet in a weeks time, it then takes six to eight weeks for the test to come back if all is well and antibodies are high enough the vet will issue the medical certificate if all is not well the process of jabs and blood tests have to start again. our biggest problen is the company offering work to my husband they want him there 22nd August so we're pushing it, its gonna be last minute dash we've got exchange of contracts at the same time for the house sale too yipeeeeeeee, so you can guess the panic at our house

That would be great if you dont mind, I always think other fury parents references are a good idea and if its somewhere they have used more than once the kids must have been happy on thier hollidays.

The foster parents idea is good but im very nervous that if they are out walking and a kid should slip its lead or get loose i would be devastated, at least at a camp or boarding place there are high fences everywhere so they can be loose and run but not get lost, my springers have a lot of energy and need to run.

Thank you for asking your neighbours in advance.

Dear dbd33, i have looked up revolution and am going to see if i can start them on it before we get to canada it looks very good. Could you tell me if your dog(s) have had any side effect when you have applied it and whether you use this in conjunction with worming tablets for hookworm and round worm. As i am bug paranoid i want to make sure they are covered against everything in canada before our arrival but am unsure of exactly what bugs are there but not here. for example heartworm is not normally treated for here.

Thank you in advance.
