Over the past several months, your posts have led me to believe my next Baja trip will lead me to Asuncion for a wide range of reasons.
However, the upsurge in crime in your community has me worried. Will I need to caravan with other nomads so as to reduce the chance that a
basura-strewing canine might over-take me and lead me into false kidnapping allegations???
While I generally appreciate a polite pero, am I at risk of canine capture? With all that tail-wagging and hand-licking, I might consider petting El
Pero....would that constitute assault on my part??
And consorting with your criminal family....would that put me at risk of incarceration....guilt by association???

It looks like somebody might have made a mistake by not checking with authorities before taking the dog. This seems to be a new thing, but it seems OK
I guess. But I don't see how Sirenita should take the heat for it - it was her boyfriend's grandma who took it, right? Nevertheless, If I were
Sirenita, I would have personally returned the dog and apologized up and down about how I failed to uphold the law regarding pet adoption and for
failing to report a stray animal. I would have also provided the owners of the spaniel with a leash and some printed materials on how to properly
contain the animal. Where is the closest animal control center to Asuncion? If the dog were to stray again, I would kindly oblige to arrange transport
of the dog to the center in, say, GN or wherever it is. You've got to help where you can.

(With apologies to Cool Hand Luke)."..When a dogs master is gone, uh he gets to thinking about trying to find him. Before he knows it his mind aint
right.
He s got rabbit in his blood and he trys to run.."..THAT DOG DEFINITELY HAD "THE RABBIT IN HIM" It was a joke to last the whole trip. The Dog was a
very nice and clean well cared for spaniel that looked to be very close to a pure bred.
Every chance the dog had he tried to get out of the car and run. It was a source of constant worry that the dog would somehow escape and we would
arrive in Asuncion sans dog.
But we finally arrived at our destination with the fugitive dog.
Shari was as always a helpful and gracious host.
We had a great time staying at BIRD DOGS' WIP house. The fishing was great. I caught a 40 LBS Yellowtail and my friend Ing/Doc C. Romo caught a
yellowtail weighing in at 35lbs. Too bad Lic.J. Martinez beat him out.
I think that my two friends came down with a bad case of
Asuncion Baja Fever. Everyone at work has "Fish Envy" when
they see the size of the yellowtail to be had at Asuncion.
To be sure our next trip will find us bringing some Baja newbies to this still very special place in Baja.

yeah right let them try...i didn't even take the darn dog...uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..you should have heard what she said to me on the phone..did you
really expect i was gonna lay down and let her insult mua?? not likely...i am half canadian but that part of me is pure mexican...huge temper and not
easy to calm down..ask my mom...those people think they can trample everyone just 'cause they have money well boohoo...and don't get me started 'cause
i will never end...........just remembering this makes me maaaaaaaad
they should get a good look at who took their dog first then start fighting...and the dog was really happy in BOLA, the kid who got him bought
shampoo, pedigree food, a really cute leash and a bed for him...when i took him his parents had to tell they poor little guy that i was taking the dog
to the doctor...it breaks my heart everytime he sees the leash and says it was his dogs...

Sirenita,
Of course you had no ill intent in this situation. I strongly believe that.
But sweetie, if someone had taken one of your perros home, how would you react? Anger first, reason later? Or reason first, reaction later? You
just explained your hot Mexican temper. Now's the time to take the high road.
I believe in you.

This dog caper seems to be somewhat of a national past time in Baja. I had commented to my friends wife who is from La Paz about the incident and she
just about finished my sentences as I was telling the "tail" She told me that in BCS
It is quite common especially if there is some bad blood.
People will tell strangers or the non suspecting "that dog belongs to no one. Sure you can take it"etc. Knowing full well it beongs to fulana, who
would just go to pieces if anything were to happen to their dog.

It always amazes me the unique and devious ways los mexicanos seek revenge/justice. I'm sure Sirenita will figure out a way to get hers! thanks for
that vaca.

i'm not out for revenge mom, you should know me better than that...i know everything in this life is fair, if i do something bad then karma throw's it
right back at me...the same with that family...i'm not the first one and most definantly not the last one they try to hurt and step on...the
difference is that i'm not letting them...and if you really think that i want to get back at them for that, well...i'm sorry for you because that just
shows how little you know your own daughter.

That's pretty sad about the little guy in BOLA.
With all the abandoned dogs in Baja, especially the ones outside of Rosarito in that shelter, it would seem someone could replace it with another.
What a great Christmas gift it would be for him.
