FURRY FRIENDS

We found a dark grey male dog either mastiff or american stanford on the road from San Vito to the Paso Real. It was totally befuddled. We think it might have been abandoned but just in case.... It is extremely cuddly. 2786 55 19  Ingrid <larocadeeden@yahoo.fr>



Pet Rescue/Veterinarian in Perez 
Dr. Milena Elizondo Segura and her staff operate a full-service vet, pet supply and grooming center with a pet rescue/adoption center in the back of the building. Please visit Huellas veterinary clinic if you're looking for a vet, to adopt a dog, or even a worthy cause for donations and volunteer time.

Dr. Elizondo is a guardian angel for our four-legged friends in Perez, a place where pets are not always treated like members of the family. If you've ever wondered if there's someone who'll care for the abandoned and injured dogs and cats often seen on the side of the road, this is your answer. But they are running out of space and resources!

There are around 8-10 dogs onsite and another 25-30 dogs hosted in people's homes and on a local property. Adopted dogs are all spayed/neutered and completely FREE (donations gladly accepted, of course). They also offer discounted spay/neuter and shot packages. Call for more information.

El Chiropractor
   Casa Quiropractica Del Sur is happy to serve friends, families, athletes and the community at large. Chiropractic is a very effective and powerful form of natural health care (life expression). The degeneration process begins because of subluxation (misaligned vertebra & pressure on a nerve root or the brainstem) and bad posture. I specifically adjust the primary subluxations in the vertebral column thus restoring proper nerve flow. Check us out on Facebook: Casa Quiropractica Del Sur or at www.CasaQuiropractica.com.
We are open Monday-Friday 9am-6pm. We are located 300 meters west/up hill from the park. Or 75 meters up hill from Cinco Menos/Xiomara.   e-mail: CasaQuiropracticaDelSur@hotmail.com or call 2770-4206.     Dr. Robert Henderson  Collegio de Profesionales en Quiropractica de Costa Rica.  Lic. #22

Hottub or whirlpool needed
I am looking at gettting a new or used outdoor whirlpool or hottub (with ozonator) for my house in Dominical for rental guests to use when I am not there. I'm assuming people will not want to heat it up much in our zone, but am concerned about electrical costs   So does anyone who has experience with one of these and what the electricity bill might escalate to if it is used frequently?  Are there more problems than in other areas with keeping it clean?  Do the components rust out quickly like with other appliances in the Southern Zone?  I'd probably get one with capacity for 4 or 5 people. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.  Please email KC@SkyForInc.com.  Thank you!
