Mood: I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

Glad it all worked out!

Before Isla Coronados was a park island, we were camped in a tent on the beach with our Australian Shepherd. At 3 a.m. she went crazy, tore through the screen door that was zipped closed, and barked her way out into the water. My husband turned on our big spotlight in time to see two men in a panga pulling up our anchor in preparation for stealing our panga. They dropped the rope, started their engine and sped off. Without our dog, we would have gotten up and found no boat! She saved our trip! Good dog!

You'd have had zero problems with the dog on the island. Too many conservative ppl on this board that will give you, well, very conservative, by the book advice. I'd have taken the dog in a heart beat. Very worst case, less than 5% chance, it would have cost you $50.

I'm sure it would have been fine but the tour group I used did not want to let our dog off the boat if we did not find anyone to watch him. I'm sure once we got there the captain would have been ok letting our dog off.

No biggie we had a great time and our dog was fine.

Ok JZ, I tried hard to pay the mordida with my situation, and it did not work, I believe the park official does not care for Gringos. So is not always a $50 solution.
