May 28 @ 7:30 am- Sky HarborAirport-Terminal4:

 Directions: From the51 take I-10 to the airport exit (#149). Follow the signs to Terminal 4Departures and go around the terminal (headed east). Once you are headed west(approaching the south side of Terminal 4)  the Oversize Vehicle Lot is on your right. It is a quick turn into thatlot which is not a covered parking area. If you go past the terminal you havegone too far and will need to circle Terminal 4 again. There is an automaticparking ticket dispenser at the entrance to this lot and to your left as youenter you will see some large yellow posts with a red stripe at the top. Thisis where we will meet since it is the sidewalk going up to the terminal. Thereare some gravel areas in this parking lot where you can potty your dog prior toour going into the terminal.

 From the 143, 202and 60 follow the signs on 143 taking you into the airport. Terminal 4 will beyour first terminal and the Oversize Vehicle Lot is on your right.

 My advice is stay inthe right lane as much as you can going around Terminal 4 since I find the airportto be a little tricky entering and exiting. You may also want to do a test runprior to the class.

 Parking is $4.00 perhour so plan on an hour and a half charge. At any point you feel your dog isoverwhelmed with the sights and sounds please feel free to take them outside.Don’t feel you have to do this complete adventure, after all our dogswell-being is our priority.
