    Shipping Dog from DR to USA

    Hi DR1, I need advice on how to ship a dog from Santiago to NYC. I've searched online and have not found concrete information (aside from making sure the dog has all its vaccinations). I'd like to know if there is a service that does this or what is a good airline, costs, and any other...

    Dominicans on YouTube

    Hi DR1, It's been a long time since I've visited this site. Anyway, I am searching for Dominican YouTubers and would like to hear your favorites (if any exist). I want to see what Dominicans have done with the creativeness that YouTube offers as a platform and its effects on the culture. I'm...

    Looking for Internships and Study Abroad Programs

    Hi DR1ers, I just got back from DR after not visiting the country for 3 years and I was completely bored out of my mind. I think I am starting to lose my love for the country; I just don?t know anybody and I would really like to have friends to hang out with but unfortunately I?ve never had the...

    Cost of X-box Video Game Consules?

    Hi, My mom told a dieing cousin of mine we would send him my Xbox (original) which has been gathering dust for about 2 years, but unfortunately he has taken a turn for the worst and I believe if I send it now that he won't get to play with it. Anyway since I don't have access to the Dominican...

    Looking (Shopping) For A Dog in Santiago

    Hi, I will be traveling to Santiago on a short trip later this month and a friend asked me to purchase a dog for her. She wants a little dog; the miniature chihuahua aka teacup chihuahuas. She heard from various Dominicans in NYC that they are way cheaper in DR, so as I favor I said I would...

    Modeling

    I was seeing pictures of Dominican Moda week, and I guess NYC has jaded me, but I thought some of the designs were just awful. Anyway, it got me thinking is the modeling business profitable in the DR? I know that there are modeling schools such as Barbizon and John Casablancas, but is operating...

    Horses

    Where can one buy a horse? I see alot of horses in DR, and I'm wondering what is the median price for a horse? I could probably ask a campesino but I'd like to do some research before hand. I'm not looking for a Thoroughbred (although that breed is quite good), but a young horse between 3 and 4...

    AL HORFORD 3rd Pick in NBA Draft

    Wow, I really did not believe he would go that high. He has talent but I think he is not a 3rd pick type talent. Hopefully he won't be another Darko Milicic or Sam Bowie. Congrats to the guy.... I can see Leonel Fernandez getting ready for a photo op.

    A Good Dominican Movie

    I am being very broad when I ask this question/statement, I'm including movies made by Dominicans and movies about DR topics. I just saw "The Galindez Files", and it was bad. The movie is about a collegiate researching Galindez mysterious disappearance, it supposedly takes place in DR, and the...

    What were they thinking?!

    Did anybody see the Casandra awards? I have never in my life, seen so many Dominicans badly dressed. What the hell was Venya Carolina thinking? Her dress was quite vulgar, she should have been naked, it would have not made a difference. She looked like a tank. What I really find amusing, is how...
