Info on Dangerous Toxic Plants for Pets in Costa Rica

Has anyone seen a list of plants typically found in Costa Rica that are potentially dangerous•toxic for pets??

I think it could be a best seller if someone created one [in both English & Spanish even better!!

Any mega Costa Rica plant aficionados out there that could also help families figure out what plant in their garden is making their pet break out or get sick? 

Someone that could make a House Call, or the family could make a video or take pictures of their full garden.


One of the dogs where I've pet sat at keeps getting red bumps & bright pink on his belly & around his mouth outbreaks since he came to live here & the vet hasn't been able to identify the problem STILL.

POSTIIVE MESSAGE - "SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE"


I LOVE THIS message!! 
Now, what defines "SUCCESSFUL" is what's open for interpretation!!! 

For me, it's SOOO NOT about how much $$$ one has - or how many "things" one has  accumulated (actually, to ME, it's QUITE the opposite these days).

To ME, a "Successful Person" IS VERY MUCH those things listed in the green!!!!!!!!  
(though I get to work more on all the "writing down" points!! 
And I'm VERY MUCH a "Fly by the seat of my pants" kinda gal - but to ME - that's called "Living in the Moment" and being OPEN for "God Timing" - TRUSTING in the process and being OPEN to AMAZING things to happen that I hadn't planned or that I had tried to Control!
Also, there are MANY AMAZING "Messages" on TV and even more examples on showing you about different types of people and how to/not to deal with them!!! 

Heck - EVERYWHERE in life we have "Messages" - be it a billboard, a bumper sticker, a 3 year old child, a street person - when YOU'RE OPEN to seeing the "Messages"!! [I don't get people that are avid readers giving off an attitude of superiority because they read - especially when they're into reading fiction, etc. How is reading a book on fantasy/fiction different than watching tv??  
You can LEARN NEW THINGS from ANYWHERE in life YOU CHOOSE to be open to learning from!!)

FLEA MARKETS in Costa Rica • MERCADO de las PULGUS en Costa Rica


Mercado de las Pulgas • Flea Market in Costa Rica
Flea Markets as we know them from the States are not something you find often. 

We do have a
COMMUNITY GARAGE SALE•Mini-Flea Market in Escazu once a month (details at -  LivingLifeInCostaRica.blogspot.com/2014/06/MiniFleaMarketCocinaEclecticaEscazu.html

MERCADO MAYOREO
Mercado Mayoreo is the CHEAPEST Farmers Market•Feria in Costa Rica and on weekends -

Saturday & Sunday - 7am-12pm/noon/mid-day
they also have Flea Market•Mercado de las Pulgas "stuff"!!!

I haven't stopped in yet but from driving by it seems like it's a lot of made in China chunchas/chachkees (like MANY flea markets I've been to in the U.S. seem to be doing), some brought over from Panama (MEGA cheaper for most things) or Nicaragua and yes, SOME things are stolen but . . . , and used "stuff".  Not lots of "quality" things but seems like a great place to check out if you're a newbie to Costa Rica!  I hear Tools can be quite well priced here (again - not the highest in quality but if it's not that important - they're cheap [FYI - you can often find some basic tools like hammers, wrenches - things like that - at Pequeño Mundo!!! -



The regular Feria• is open week days starting EARLY in the a.m. like 4am or so as MANY restaurants shop here and when I've been there - they seem to clear out by around 11am-ish - but there is one that stays open till 10 PM!!!!!!

 They also have a bunch of Soda's there to eat from that are quite cheap!!!

 Daniel reports:
"You will find everything fine creams, perfumes, sunglasses, antiques, clothing, food in general, cleaning utensils, old stuff, general spare parts, etc, etc, etc. At the same time next takes place the weekend market in the selling fruits and vegetables. More info and photos on his website: "
http://Escazunews.blogspot.com/2012/06/mercado-de-las-pulgas-en-san-jose-flea.html

WHEN:
 Every Saturday and Sunday - 7am-12pm/noon/mid-day
(I'm sure except for major holidays like Christmas and Samana Santa)

 WHERE:
Avenue 10
 (400 meters from Sabana Park - on the same side of the street and just East of Yammuni  -  OR  -  adjacent to the Municipality of San Jose  -  OR - just West of•before the Cemetery•Cementerio).

PAID Parking inside - off the side street
