Greetings From Virginia
This is actually my 2nd post (first one is under Health unfortunately). I live in VA fairly near Washington D.C. and have a yellow lab who will be 11 on March 27th. We have previously owed 2 other black labs who lived to "old" age. I found this site when I was searching for health info. and what a find!! Looks like lots of great info. and active posters. So glad to be a new member!

Hi! Glad you like it here--Lol, my 2nd home! I haven't read your other post yet so don't know the problem. I also have had some bad news recently on my 2 dogs! Won't go into it here as I have posted already about it--just say they both have dilated cardiopathy--enlarged heart. My Max (Paxer) will be 11 on April 1st--about 4-5 days younger than yours! What do you call him/her? Maybe you already said in your other post. Guess I better go read that right now. Hey, enjoy the site--I do!:mrgreen:

I am finally able to log back in - had to switch browsers! Anyway, nice song but wrong state  "Country Roads" is about West VA not VA. I live in Prince William County which is an outer suburb of Washington, D.C. - it is the next county out from Fairfax, if anyone recognizes that - I live near Manassas.
Where is everyone else from?

Remember, they can't move on until you send it back!
Wonder if we should include our dogs???

Yeh! I have had 3 separate pcs. of mail now to do with sending it back, including the report itself! Uproar around my area--waste of tax payers money sending out these 3 pcs. when the form is enough!!! And then they 'screwed up' the addresses on a lot of them!
I think we should of been able to---It costs just about as much to 'raise' the dogs as it does the kids!
