Re: Spay at shelter
I have used both. My foster dogs were done at the spay/neuter clinic $85 each as cost is an issue for the rescue all 3 did fine though weren`t fully awake when picked up. My new miniature Aussie puppy was done at my regular vet which was $330 but included Micro chip & Bordetella vacc I just felt more comfortable taking her to my vet310Views0likes0CommentsRe: Mold in wall board in Forst River Blue Ridge UPDATE

Make sure you update us when the unit is returned, many happy camping trips for your son & family. Will definately update when he gets it back. Pick up is in January & they estimate March/April to be completed523Views0likes0CommentsRe: Mold in wall board in Forst River Blue Ridge UPDATE

Seems to me that when he called the first time, they could of run his VIN and known then and there that his trailer was part of a recall. I asked my son and it was the dealer he called first & they told him they didn`t know of any issues & that he was out of warranty. When he called the factory as suggested by members of the Cardinal forum the factory did get right back to him the next morning and had him take pics & send vin# and called him shortly after receiving the pics & told him his camper came from the plant that had the problems and they will take it in for repairs. So far he is happy with their customer service & hopes to have his camper back for next springs camping season.523Views0likes0CommentsRe: Mold in wall board in Forst River Blue Ridge UPDATE
Just wanted to give an update. First Thank you to `Me Again` for the Cardinalownersrvclub link. It was a Great help. My son had joined that forum when he first bought it but hadn`t posted in it. Turns out there was a problem with that year camper made in one of plants. A Forest River Rep. called my son the next day & took the vin number and his Blue Ridge was one of the ones affected with I believe he said improperly sealed wall board. He sent additional pics and close ups of the walls. The same day he got his repair contract and the factory will have a transporter pick it up in January for repair or possibly replacement. Even though he was out of warranty it`s nice to see a company step up and do the right thing.523Views0likes0CommentsRe: Mold in wall board in Forst River Blue Ridge UPDATE
Thank you for the responses. The dealership was in a pretty good rush to give him a good deal on it and get it off the lot so personally I wouldn`t be surprised if they knew there was a problem or it did havea leak before he bought it that they may have fixed and they wanted to unload it before it showed up. either way he`s going to get stuck paying for it524Views0likes0CommentsRe: Mold in wall board in Forst River Blue Ridge UPDATE
No cold weather camping He`sonly used it maybe 10 times and throughly cleans & makes sure there`s no dampness before winterizing. Insurance adjuster said it looks like it was in the wood and not what you would see if there were leaks or moisture possibly contaminated wood or glue. He did try the factory & they said he`s out of warranty so there`snothing they can do. Will pass the info for Magnuson Moss warranty act to him.115Views0likes0CommentsMold in wall board in Forst River Blue Ridge UPDATE
I was wondering if anyone has ever had this problem? I`m just trying to help my son find some info or ideas how to repair it. My son has a 3 yr old Forest River Blue Ridge 5th wheel and as he was getting ready to go camping last week noticed pimple like bumps all through the camper wall, He opened a few and found a black mold that after further looking apears to be in the actual wood board that`s under the wall paper (as in contaminated board during construction) He takes excellent care of his equipment, no leakes or water damage prior. so he doesn`t know where it came from. He is now going to have to do repairs on it himself as insurance won`t cover it.5.3KViews0likes20CommentsRe: Waiting at the Rainbow Bridge
SALEM May 4, 2001- August 22, 2009 Salem was born in a feral colony that I took care of. Her mother kept taking her out in a pasture and leaving her so I picked her up and raised her. She always had health issues but was active and seemed happy. She traveled everywhere with us vacations, horse shows etc and loved to sit on my shoulder and watch the miles go by. She was with us when we bought our first RV a Fifth wheel then our gasser MH then the Diesel. She loved to lay on the dash on her blanket and would chase the squeegee when we stopped an DH would clean the windows. She loved to travel and was at the door when she saw the MH being pulled down to the house to be loaded up. At home she kept the other cats in line, she was the queen of the house and when she felt it was bed time at night would sit at the top of the stairs and meow until I came up then she would hop on my pillow and go to sleep. She would also demand her lap time from DH she always decided when and how long. The past few years she had been fighting constant sinus problems we took her to several vets but none could tell us what was wrong. This past year she really slowed down and seemed to have more frequent bouts of breathing problems, no longer slept on my pillow and did`nt want her lap time, she slept on her blanket and spent most of the time sleeping and this past week she went down hill fast and I think she knew her time was coming to an end All week she wanted to go outside with me and would follow her dog Sterling around, Tuesday night she spent the whole night on my pillow(it had been months since she did that) by Wednesday her breathing was getting a little more difficult and she had trouble swallowing and wouldn`t eat but still wanted to sit out and walk with her dog. Thursday she only wanted to sit and by Friday night she could no longer breathe well IV fluids and meds were no longer helping. Saturday She was very distressed so I made the decision to let her go. The vet felt she had growths in her sinus cavity that finally started to press on her airway. She also felt something in Salem`s abdomen. She was such a special kitty and I miss her so much, she has left a huge hole in my heart.

Duchess our sweet Torti Cat and the Queen of the house Oct 1994- April 21 2009 Beyond The Rainbow As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played, I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade. I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity. I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side Were meadows rich and beautiful -- lush and green and wide! And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be! My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do. I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright That this place is truly wonderful, then a bright Glow pierced the night. 'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold. For although we may not be together in the way we used to be, We are still connected by a cord no eye can see. So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart458Views0likes0Comments
