Finally getting my residency permit means I can start making arrangements to bring my boy from South Africa.... I am so excited.....

I met up with Britgirl and her hubby yesterday as they have enlisted my services in training there two cute babies.... Thunder and Lightening.... names are very apt......

I was shocked when she told me about the ticks the dogs pick up here..... Who would have thought ticks would survive in the sand.... Fleas maybe.... but ticks... they are nomally a grass insect.....apparently, Frontline is not working to well here.... so beware about that..... Bulahri (the tick born disease)is a "killer".

I was hoping too see Hill's Vet also... as at home Anex is on something similar, but produced in S A..... MC, would you please find out if it would be available to us mere mortals not on the airbase......lol...... I do like Pedigree also, but not so keen on the tinned stuff.... prefer chunks...... Anex goes through about 20kgs a month.... so would buy big bags at a time.....

Thanks J, for the info regarding the lead, as my lead is quite expensive and I would be upset if it got zapped.... i will ask my friend to tape it to the floor of the crate underneath the bedding......

Keep posting info.... it helps alot......
