Question
I will be coming to Ajijic 6-1-05 until 6-13-05.  The trip is to see if Ajijic is for us.  We have  6 small dogs and I need to know if there is a certain number that you are allowed to have.  This will probably be the deciding factor for mus.

Answer
Hi Judy, some areas do have restrictions on the number of dogs, some don't. I don't know of any restrictions in the villages themselves, but newer areas do.

Doglandia is a great boarding place if you need one. Just across from Flor de Cordoba in San Antonio. Pat loves all dogs and we have been very happy leaving our afghan and poodle there. She has separate runs but many dogs live in her house while boarding. Perhaps a tad expensive but no worries.

For a vet we use Drs. Ladron next to the animal shelter in Riberas but there are several excellent ones. You will be very pleased with the costs involved.

Best regards,
  Ron

Expertise

I lived full time in the Chapala-Ajijic area for 7 years, and other areas 5 years. During that time I provided information (health care, working papers, immigration, driving, cost of living, insurance, culture, divorce in Mexico, trusts vs direct deed,etc) to help people make the decision about whether the area was right for them, either full or part-time. I live legally in Mexico.
