    Dogs waiting to Bite at Villaviaja

    Sorry to say but your rabies is not a lifetime vaccine. There is no such thing. After a run-in with bats I, too, received an aggressive vaccine series. But we must consult the public health officials again for any future run-ins.

    Solo (female) walker alert

    I will remember the 1-1-2 tip! Thank you. Leaving for the Camino in June (again!-so excited). Don't regret not having taken the picture-then you would have had a PICTURE of him! Worse! Don't let it stop you from going, ladies! This sort of thing happens in crowded parking lots in your home...
