Joop's Dog Log - Monday June 14

Three more weeks and we`re going on a big vacation trip, me and my humans.
We`ve rented a camper van, and we`re going to Norway.
That is: I hope we are. It all depends on my blood test.
The Norwegian humans have very strict requirements for visiting dogs.
All dogs crossing their borders must have had shots against just about any known disease
and any virus on earth and the moon.
With my Dog Log and all I`m suprised I didn`t need a computer virus shot...!
So I had my shots. But the Vikings at the immigration desk mean business. They want proof.
That is what the blood test is for.
If the vaccines don`t show up in the blood test I can`t go to Norway.
And even if the blood test is good, they still won`t let me in if the chip reading machine
they have at the Norwegian border can`t read my ID-chip.
Also, if all goes well and I`m in Norway,
I must see a Norwegian vet within a week for more shots....!
Yes, I still want to go. Call me crazy. Hey, I`m in a vacation mood already.
My humans have three more busy workweeks ahead, but I`m ready.
All I have to do is keep my paws crossed for my blood test.
It should come in any day now...

Wow, Joop, this is one of my most favorite of all photos of you. You just look so darn happy! And I tell you what - if all us fotologgers cross something, the energy generated is sure to get you past those dog guard guys and have a really wonderful vacation. You deserve it! I mean, all the worrying you do about the problems of the world. You NEED some time off! Time for fun and frolic, to relax and regenerate. Okay, everybody, on the count of three, let`s all cross something, okay? One . . . two . . .

Wow they have a lot of rules, these vikings, but I`m sure that means if you make it there, it will be a very safe place for a healthy dog! They must really care about their dogs in Norway. Good luck, and such a nice photo of you as always Joop!

How complicated humans are my friend!!!! It is always been like this, and perhaps it will even get worse! But don`t worry, your blood test will be ok, and soon you will be travelling to Norway with your humans... I can`t wait to see the pictures! Take care, all of you!

Look at that smile on your face, sweet Joop. Wow, a vacation in Norway. How wonderful. I have a feeling all your tests etc. are going to be just fine. Oh boy...I bet you can hardly wait. Norway. I think that is a place I will never see in person, so I know you will let your human take some photos of you in all sorts of interesting places.

Joop, you`re so funny! Ha ha ha ha, ...computer virus...ha ha ha ha. Just think, Joop, in many countries U.S. pets have to go into quarantine for up to 6 months before they`re allowed to visit! That sounds absolutely horrible!! So I think the Vikings are just being cautious. Nothing personal. We`re off to find a new adventure this morning now... Paw from Luke!

Oh Joop, people are crazy, believe me. We (the K-pack) will go to Corsica in 65 days with just a vaccination against rabies - that`s all (if the EU had no new ideas...). Paws crossed for EU and your blood test, :) Hardy & the K-pack
