  1. When we lived in Mexico we couldn't afford more than basic vet care, like medicine and sometimes IVs if the dog was really sick. We would have just had to let the dogs die. They ended up dying kind of young, about 8 years old. Dogs don't last long in Mexico. It's a factor here in the US, we're not able to afford pets.

  2. My sister-in-law used to participate, she'd give local dogs shots in her town. They give a little medical record and a dog tag type thing to put on the dog's collar to show they were vaccinated. (Government program provided everything for her, she just did it for free.)

  3. That's a good question. It could be they can't cross the border, or are not able to navigate in TJ. It's a huge hassle and since there's a service, it's easier. Maybe they can't take off work.
