> to do his business, etc. No worries, Royal Caribbean will ask you or your 
> travel agent (hint, hint) to fill out the paperwork for you for the access 
> department, in reference to the dog.  You need to bring your own dog food, 
> bowls, etc. for the dog.

> I have a whole list of countries and what is needed for bringing the dog
