Botas is all loaded up to go to his new summer home, at Carlos's ranch, 7 km south of PM.......Carlos is a friend I do Spay and Neuter Clinics with and is very involved in animal rescue here in Mexico.....
Botas has done a meet and greet a week ago and was a little overwhelmed... Carlos has 18 dogs.....so he was reluctant to come out of his kennel....
Here is the main gate on the highway, and Carlos has many hectares of land for the dogs to play in, along with organice produce, chickens, geese, ducks and turkeys....all in huge fenced pens away from the dogs....
The inside gate - the ranch has WOOF volunteers constantly (World Organization of Organic Farmers) who come from around the world to work on the farm in exchange for room and board. Botas will have lots of friends, 2 legged and 4 legged, and we hope it will help him get even more socialized.
Off to the airport on May 1st - thanks to Brian for the ride - and we met Ricardo, who was the volunteer for Tierra de Animales, an animal rescue organization in Cancun. We were the companions for 2 rescue dogs going to homes in Canada.
This is Brenda....these 2 dogs were so calm and cool....not at all freaked by all the noise and people and activity......
Once the dogs had been processed and boarded, and we had checked in, we took time for a quick bite at a resto in the airport....been up since 3 am, so happy just to take a break.........
and they called our boarding in the middle of our final margarita, so took them with us on board....complete with shakers..........
These lucky dogs are Brenda and Paco, who arrived safe and sound and we were met immediately by Ola who is taking them home. Gave Carl and Alice a bit of a scare when we arrived with 2 dog crates on our luggage rack....LOL.....
Lovely Mexican rescue dogs arrive safely at Toronto airport....this was an easy and trouble free experience for us, so we will do this every year when we fly home. Thanks to all the great volunteers in both Mexico and Canada who make this happen.
