Water those roots...?
Hong Kong
Yes its the 5th of May and I am still in Hong Kong. The visa situation is still the same...... I've been finding out about getting Ditch back to Hong Kong. Not a nice thing for her to have to endure. The minimum quarantine period from a Class III country such as China is 4 months. The kennel size is 1m x 2m. Thats a tough time for a pooch. Chatting with a few people about their experiences and they say their dogs were not in a good way. Psychologically disturbed. Well.. as Ditch grew up with me she is already slightly damaged in the brain. She is already a bit nutty, but even so..... Its gotta be horrible.
I'm now looking into sending her off to France to live with a family for a short time. France could act as a transit point, from which she can return to Hong Kong with out being locked in a box. Big green fields, running free with other dogs. Thats got to be better....
I have a sneaky suspicion though that it will cost a fortune.... We shall see. What am I doing at the moment.??? I'm reading, swimming, pottering and working. Mainly the first three though. Hopefully the 4th will snap into action very soon.....I have a few plans in the pipeline.......but for the moment I'm quite enjoying taking it easy in Cheung Chau. ............Although I'd much rather be up in China pedaling away.......

Hope you manage to sort out Ditch's predicament....
If you get her back you can spend time teaching her to "Mush", and letting her feet toughen up slowly...you will be amazed how much power she can supply, and how long she can keep going. The trick is to get her to enjoy it while still obeying commands.
Hang in there and think how much better prepared the 4 of you will be.
Cheers
