guestDo not bring large dogs to this country. They will die in anesthesia and they won't accept the blame. Just leave them at home. It' snot worth it. The water is reclaimed sewer water and is diseases. Your dog will rash up and stay that way until you leave or they die. We lost our dog just 2 days ago to a local vet. First time EVER in surgery, ended up dead from anesthesia - medical malfeasance because NO one watches the vitals. They don't take anesthesia here at vet clinics as seriously as they do in other countries. You'll have some low wage, uneducated worker who doesn't speak very good english in there assisting. So not worth it. He was a GSD, DDR stock, 122lb, pedigree dog. Do right by them, don't bring them here. Good luck.
