but if you can leave your doggy behind - if you have someone you can trust with the doggy. I brought my baby border collie with me he was a year old - we came from scotland with long lovely walks in the fields and streams! Now along with my saluki ( we found him bless ) we get to walk them on a wasteland each morning, dodging the broken glass and jumping over the dirty needles which lie around. There probably are other places where you can walk them which are a bit better but not many. My bc hates the lead and we cant have him on the lead, hence the wasteland. You will also get pestered when walking the dogs by people hollering and shouting abuse! The summer is far too hot for doggys and the only nice place for them is the beach ( which they love like crazy!) dont get me wrong i love my dogs like mad they are one of the most important things to me - but its no life for them out here i dont think! If i can i would have left them behind with a new home, but i couldnt trust anyone with them so there here with me!
