I'm already nauseated thinking about the flight. 🤢 Cindy, thank you so much for taking this long flight. I promise to behave and not get into too much trouble! I was going to take the first part of the two weeks by myself........I'm so happy that I have you, John and Oakland to keep me busy! I can't wait to see what Horton does when he sees Oakland, another CCI dog onboard with him.......he's going to be so happy. We'll have to find an empty lounge and let them just let loose! If it were Brenda it wouldn't be so much fun.......she was not a dog lover......Horton is totally the opposite, he loves dogs and loves to play!

How cute is this......Horton will NOT go up on the couch because when I brought him home Brenda would give him a growl and a side-eye when he would attempt to lay next to her......she was so bossy and the couch belonged to her, and HER only!

I think Halo and Oakland might be twins. The coloring and the long legs are so similar. Halo has, what looks like, a lighting bolt down his tail. Kind of getting on the middle of his back also.

He does remind me of Oakland. When I first went to CCI in 2000, all I could envision with me was a Yellow Lab. Now, after two Black Labs, I can't picture me with a Yellow, not that I would ever say NO to one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.S. Cruisers Posted August 21, 2019 #21461 Share Posted August 21, 2019 OMD (Oh My Dog) I know I have said it before, but I think we have the most handsome and beautiful dawgs in the world. Jezzy Lou is tolerating the obnoxious thing that moved into her house! She has snapped him at least 5 times. He is a slow learner when it comes to loving his sissy. He wants to play with her some bad he is beside himself. It is getting better day by day. Jezzy is allowed to go into Travis' room when she needs a breaks from the noisey little twit. Jezzy actually brought one of her toys out and gave it to him this morning. It was very cute. Had to take it away from him because it is a stuffy and he will shred it. Kong toys are on the grocery list. That is soooo exciting that Cindy, John and Oakland will be cruising together! What a very special cruise that will be. ❤️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you've ever been lucky enough to witness CCI dogs playing together you'll understand how much fun it will be to watch Horton and Oakland when they meet and have a chance to interact with each other. And, the totally opposite coloring of these two dogs will be stunning. I can't wait to finally meet Cindy and John.....we've shared so much over these many years through Cruise Critic, it'll be fun to actually be together. We found out that Cindy's TA is an old acquaintance of mine who Morey and I cruised with years ago.......it's such a small world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caribbean Chris Posted August 22, 2019 #21463 Share Posted August 22, 2019 (edited) Wow, go away for a few days and look what happens! Roz, Horton, Cindy, John, and Oakland are planning to cruise together!! I’m jealous and would be rarin’ to go, too, if we weren’t already cruising with old friends out of Florida in November when you five set sail. You must promise to take lots of pictures. Can’t wait to hear how senior citizen Horty and young Oak get along. Seven year-old Raylene’s best buddy, a two year-old CCI yellow Lab hearing dog named Firenze, came for a play date last Sunday when I invited my three girl pals (all of us adult-deafened with cochlear implants, two of us with service dogs) over for brunch. When these two Labs get together, the toy herd gets thinned out. But they look so innocent and have so much fun together, I just laugh. This pic was taken in June when they destroyed the outside of a soft Kong toy squirrel, leaving only the rope in the middle. So far, the hard plastic red & blue one has survived their onslaught. But Firenze’s spending six days with us next month, so we’ll see if it lasts. Edited August 22, 2019 by Caribbean Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend in SC who has a hearing dog and seems maybe Firenze visited her at some point. And yes we are all cruising together. Where was everyone when I lost my mind and booked this cruise?? I've been on here with Roz from the beginning and always felt a connection with her, even though shes a crazy lady. Lol Wexler wasnt a good candidate for flying out to LA. But Oakland is so laid back, I think he will do fine. And he doesn't have to potty as much as Wexler. I'm more worried about me flying. I feel I've been in a panic since we booked. I cant wait to see the 2 dogs together!! These CCI dogs seem to know they came from the same place. I'm sure they will be quite popular on the ship. Lets just hope Oakland uses the box!! He didn't get it on the last cruise until the last few days. I'm excited and terrified at the same time. Cindy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Oakland will observe elder statesman Horton using the box, take a sniff, and hop right in. ”Ebony & Ivory” are definitely going to be popular on your cruise!

Since it's all he uses on a daily basis and he has to go potty every 3 hours, he surly is a pro. My daughter brought over her snooty, little French Bulldog/Chi. mix, who will only pee on a pad and when he followed Horton out the sliding door to his potty box, he too was using the box..my daughter was shocked, as were the rest of us! It was fun watching him climb up on the box and lift his little leg. Oakland can watch Horty and before you know it he'll be the pro. I know that ebony & ivory are going to love each other and will have a hard time when they're not together. Horton may be older but he's such a character, Oakland will love playing with him! I definitely plan on getting lots of professional pictures of the two of them together, as well as camera and phone shots. It's going to be so cute to see them posing....the other passengers will love them. Chris, I wondered where you were. I love the picture of the two buds getting into trouble. Cindy, I give you a lot of credit for flying across country with your small parade. You're very brave! I promise not to give you too much of a hard time!!!!

rangeley Posted August 23, 2019 #21472 Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) Do you think they will have 2 boxes? A stairway will not work for John. If theres 2 boxes, we might have Horton pee in our box to get Oakland going. I looked up Mexico and its only the health certificate? Thats easy! Princess has this new Medallion thing instead of a key card. I was wondering if Roz has done this since I know how tech savvy she is? John and I did it. Also signed up for full internet, so we will be able to post some pics. Roz did you give your TA our reservation number so they can link us for dinner? We were waitlisted #6 but I think we are now confirmed. Edited August 23, 2019 by rangeley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be coming in to Ft Lauderdale November 15th on the Edge Transatlantic from Rome. We are going to Venice first - a bit of pre-planning needed for a wheelchair and Service Dog!
