Thanks for sharing. Great pictures. :)

Great link. Thanks:)

pm: Do you have a service dog? :confused:

Your answer is in the photo. Cruised 5 times with RC.

If you read my past posts you will see I truely want others opinions. {Why is that so hard to understand?} Maybe they will make a point I never thought of. Maybe I can learn something. That is why I am on these boards. I do not have all the answers to life. I appreciate others input. I have been reading and posting on this thread for sometime. More reading than posting. I have learned many things about traveling with a SD. Thank you all for your opinions and your experiences with your SD.

Quampapetet I will be more than happy to answer any questions. To share experiences. If interested let me know how to contact.

Why was the thread pulled? I would have liked to have read what ppl had to say about having an SD onboard.

 

Were any other experiences mentioned (besides the ppl with a "Brenda" dog that I'm hoping is a different one from Roz's dog)?

 

Did anybody say anything GOOD about SDs?

Yes there were many who had good things to say. One poster was on a cruise with about 40 dogs and had nothing but positive to say. There were two other posters, both of which felt the SD they saw was not well groomed/taken care of but that was it.

Then there were the few that kept coming back to, it's the law our opinion does not count why are you asking. I kept assuring them that their opinion did matter to me, which is why I posted the poll. I knew what the law says but that I wanted to hear what they had to say. Just because something is a law doesn't necessarily mean you agree with it. I truely wanted to know how others felt about SD on cruiseships.

The last I checked the poll it was 190+ in favor of SD on cruiseships and 5 against. Two of the guys that posted against came back to comment on their vote after they found out it was a public poll and others could see how you voted. I feel it was one of these posters that made sure the thread got pulled. His comments did not make him look very intelligent.

They were saying things about "Brenda" and even posted a photo of her sitting in a chair in one of the lounges. The photo was of a black lab with a red bandana and I believe the leash may have been red also.

They said she was even eating off the cocktail table! That they were told she was not a "real" service dog. I so wish you could have defended her.:( They were very insistant and posted several times about her. None of which were favorable I'm sad to say.

The thread has been pulled.:(

Sorry the link somehow is the wrong one. Not sure how that happened. Try this one instead. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=759827

If you are the owner of "Brenda" you may want to check out the link I posted.

Hey everyone...over on the "Ask a question" boards I have a poll going on about cruising with a service dog. Come on over and take the poll, also read what your fellow cruise critics have to say on the subject. You can even click on the button to see how everyone voted! here's the link http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=75982

I believe the CD is Ken Rush.

I will be looking forward to your review.

Angel59920...Enjoy your cruise!:D

Liz, great photos of the staff.

Lots of information in this thread. Thanks

Way to go Capt. Johnny.:D

Sounds like you had a great day.:D

Just moving this thread up so it doesn't get lost.;)

I have a question...how do you deal with waiting and waiting for embarkment day!?!?!?! :confused:

That's a very good question.:D Sorry I don't have an answer for you.:p

Schooner Bar's piano bar was a lot of fun on Adventure

This is the place to be.:D

No never have taken one. Too many other things to occupy my time.

On my first cruise, RCCL, on the last day of the cruise, which was a sea day, I went to the Windjammer for an afternoon snack. I got a plate of nachos and brought them to the pool deck, as many were doing. As soon as I stepped outside a huge gust of wind carried all my nachos, (beef, cheese, tomatoes, chips) onto this older gentleman who was sitting and relaxing in a chair. I was so embrassed and felt bad, but I had to run inside before anything else was taken in the wind!:o

OMG I would have died right there on the spot.:o

It's hard to think of a food that was bad. If I had to come up with one it would be once I had pizza that was like cardboard.:(

This is a very entertaining thread. Great read.

Love the idea of bubbles. I'm putting them on my packing list.
