[nagdu] Question about going to Europe with Neena

[debby phillips]

Hi all, I have a question.  My husband and I are planning a trip 
to Europe probably sometime in April.  We haven't set a date, or 
even the tour we will go with.  We're going to go with a company 
called Trafalgar.  We will be visiting various countries and will 
be on buses, trains, and maybe boats for lots of the trip as owe 
travel between places.  When we first began thinking of this, it 
was pretty much decided by both of us that Neena wouldn't be 
coming.  Of course, I didn't have her yet, I was waiting for that 
call from TSE.  Now that I have Neena, I'm revisiting that 
decision.  By the time owe go, we will have been home about 7 
months.  The max time we will be away is about two weeks.  Could 
be shorter but by the time you incorporate travel and all, two 
weeks is probably it.  My question is: should I try and bring her 
or not? If we were just going to one country it would be 
time-consuming and there would be lots of steps to go through, 
but since our tour will be most likely in England, the 
Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, and France, I'm not sure what 
to do.  The thought of leaving her makes me unhappy, but the trip 
is very exciting to both my husband and me, because we probably 
will never have the money to go again.  But there will be lots of 
sitting (although there will be walking too.  So if anyone has 
traveled outside the U.S.  with their dogs, I'd appreciate your 
thoughts.  Neena is great on road trips, I think her puppy 
raisers took her to like 16 states before I got her.  She's had 
lots of exposure to different situations.  But what about all the 
permissions and all that stuff?    Perplexed, Debby and Neena
