Thank you Chrissy, they are wonderful dogs. If somebody asks me 'what kind of dog is that?', I say 'It is not a dog, it is a Vizsla'. Easily the most 'human' of dogs with the most amazing ability to learn and please their hooman parents. Your niece looks very happy with her proud boy. Best wishes.
Thanks Thomas, so many Caminos - so little time! I was in the Ger a few years ago and I got chatting with a Spanish guy who was one one of the Caminos through Montesquiou. We were in La Rioja a few years ago and the Camino crossed a road we were on. Four of us got out of the car and walked a...
Thanks Don, it is the terrain that gives me most concern. I know the path you mention and there is similar terrain on the South Downs Way. I am waiting for our favourite online giant to deliver me some shoes to go with these socks. We will try them out in Richmond Park over the next few weeks...
Thanks Kanga, interesting story. I know that non of this will be 'easy'. Of course we will never do anything to endanger the wellbeing of our little girl. We do have lots of flexibilities to fall back on. We are not in a hurry so we can flex our timings depending upon all our energy levels. We...
Thanks Rick, she knows 'lunch' in three languages so far! Some great points you raise and I will add to the planning list. Interestingly, nobody has come up with any of the in formation I requested. I must learn the art of a catchy headline?
Thanks Lynn, the moment I walk through my Vet's door here in London the bill is going to be over $300! Of course I have great insurance. Currently it covers Worldwide. With all the Brexit/Shengan shenanigans going on who knows what the situation will be in April next year?
Thank you Anamiri, I am finding the planning phase most interesting. I have already communicated with lots of hotels. Sadly, two have come back to say that it is unlikely that they will survive the pandemic and the consequent loss of income.
Thank you Anamiri. I am enjoying the planning and...
Thank you very much, I will certainly AirBnB when staying multiple nights. We prefer the privacy and flexibility. Planning is fun, I think it heightens the anticipation.
Thanks Arn, we have a property in southern Spain and are aware that the Spanish (not all of them, of course), view 'a dog is for Christmas; not for life'. Dogs are pretty cute - meet/get fed/follow/return home/repeat.
Thanks. I am introducing Guapa to boots/socks (she hates already). Of the YouTube vlogs I have seen there is mixed terrain so the footwear will be pretty much like the lovely Lab in the images.
I am new to the forum. I am not new to enquiring about taking my dog on the Camino. Please do not offer me advice/opinion in that regard.
I intend to walk shortly after Easter 2022 with my girlfriend and ............. our dog. She is a Vizsla and will be 2 years next April. We are already...
