I'm surprised I didn't notice your post before now as I'm on here on a fairly regular basis. I appear to be the first to respond to your original post. It would also appear that we have the entire ship to ourselves. lol
I had to respond when I saw the picture of your pug. My girlfriend, who will be on the cruise, has been heavily involved, and still is to some degree, in pug rescue. She currently has three japanese chins from rescue groups. Go figure, although she has had pugs in the past.
Before I make any false assumptions I have to ask what "DH" stands for?
What airport are you flying into for the cruise?
