Hi Norma,
Thanks for your feedback. I am flying into Manzanillo Airport but I'll be aware of that possibility. Oscar is on "Advantix" (for fleas and ticks) and I'll make our vet puts it on the Health Certificate.

Have you heard that dogs need to be vaccinated against "Leptospirosis"? My vet is recommending it, but I'm not sure it's really necessary. It's a bacteria that is got by the dog drinking from "urine contaminated street puddles" or any other contaminated 'standing water'. As I am only going to be in La Manzanilla and plan on keeping Oscar on a on a short leash both figuratively and lterally (other than when he's on the beach) I really don't see much chance of him contracting it.

Thanks,
Terry
