Hi Tracy:

I most likely wouldn't take Bogart to a hockey game myself but this is just me. Is it an NHL or semi pro level you're thinking about? I ask because those arenas aren't really all that cold. For example when I go to the Vancouver Canucks games or to our junior hockey teams games we are usually sitting in our seats with our coats off and totally comfortable.

As for hearing the sounds there are a couple of options. I once sat in row 1 in the corner by the net for a junior playoff game and the sounds there were awesome since you had the body checks into the boards, the puck flying around the boards or the glass, the shots at the goalie and all that. For more of an overall sound scape, I would think you'd want to be above the level of the glass and on the side of the rink. So I's say about 16 to 25 rows up around the blue line would give you a good sound scape.

I guess I should inquire about how things would work at a canucks game if I took bogart. I was sort of hoping I could get access to the wheelchair seating area since this would have room for the dog. 

Let  me know how it goes when you go to the game.

Gary
