hi Richclover
thanks for the response. Great info. Anytime we might be at such a really high elevation we would be climbing over a high road to get to an elevation a lot lower than 10,000 feet and at that including finding an rv park or campground at a more comfortable and workable elevation with a generator.
Nice response and thanks for what you have done for rescue dogs.The most beautiful dogs we ever had were rescue buddys
Glad to help! Our Aussie Shepherd was adopted from a co. animal shelter a couple of days before he was to be put down. He gave us 12 years of unconditional love.
Buddy, a stray Border Collie mix, was adopted from a county shelter. Bitsy, a mini Aussie Shepherd, was an owner surrender. After a year they are family.
As others have said if you live at a low altitude you will feel the change up high. Our house is 7020’ above sea level, so we and the pups are better suited.
Bottom line, if you aren’t feeling good neither are your dogs.
