We had great time at Woods Canyon Lake area but it was super windy and a bit cold for swimming.  It was perfect hiking weather but my paws were a little sore so mommy thought it was time to go back to warmer weather and a lake we could SUP on.    After leaving Woods Canyon, we checked out Willow Springs Lake since it was so close.   We got there at the perfect time because they were stocking the lake.  That was cool to see.      After that we made the trip back down the 87 to Payson.  We

Again, we were sad to leave Apache Lake and contemplated staying another night.  But decided we should move on.  We headed up the 87 and stopped in Payson to check it out.  Nothing to write home about but we only went through the main area.  We couldn’t believe there were no coffee shops open on a Sunday for mommy to update her blog, only 2 Starbucks inside grocery stores.  A very seasonal town for sure!  A nice man at the gas station told us to go to Woods Canyon Lake and that is what the gal and Facebook said to

We got off to an interesting start on this adventure.  We were originally supposed to leave on Thursday, April 13th but the universe kept throwing signals to mommy that is just wasn’t the time.  Good thing she listened and we didn’t go for two reasons.  The first reason is that I had a seizure on Thursday!  I hadn’t had one since October when I was diagnosed with a brain tumor but I got treated with the Cyberknife radiation and have been on medications since then.  Mommy does not like medications so she has been slowly weening me off of them.

Vets in Mexico

Have you ever had medical treatment in Mexico?  I know many people that go to Mexico for dental work and I have a few friends that went there to get medical help because they could not afford treatment in the United States.   Being in the medical field myself, I have heard good and bad stories.   What about your dog?  Would you ever take Fido to Mexico for Veterinary Care?  What if it was a life or death situation and you could not afford Veterinary care in the U.S. ?  Cancer is on the rise in people AND dogs
