The reason for the sudden <strong>Nowhere dog ban<\/strong> was the organization&#8217;s\u00a0failure in managing some uneducated non-burners participants that crashed Nowhere 2013 with their even less educated 3 dogs.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than regulating the dog scenario with the <strong>adoption of a pet policy<\/strong> (something that many burners events around the world have done successfully), the Nowhere organization decided that it was easier to make life difficult to participants with dogs, by banning pets on site for good. Basically the solution has been to &#8220;exclude&#8221; those participants, members of the Nowhere community, who for logistic or financial reasons cannot leave their pet behind, spending money on two weeks or more of dog pensions, besides of missing their beloved companions.<\/p>\n<p>Growing Nowhere has proposed many times the adoption of a pet policy for Nowhere, but never got feedback on it, besides of unreasonable rejections without even the pleasure to get to discuss the policy proposal (or even better, having the community discussing it). <strong>Curious about the pet policy proposed by Growing Nowhere<\/strong> a few times over the last couple of years? <a title=\"Growing Nowhere's Proposed Pet Admission Policy for Nowhere\" href=\"https:\/\/www.burningmax.com\/growingnowhere\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/GrowingNowhere-Proposed-Pet-Admission-Policy.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download it from here<\/a>, and let us know what do you think of it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There really are no reasons to ban dogs from Nowhere.<\/strong> While at Burning Man there is the issue of the alkaline soil that can damage dog&#8217;s paws (but yet DPW volunteers are allowed to bring their dogs, if they don&#8217;t show them in public places during the event), there is no such problem in the Monegros. As a matter of fact, the entire area is a &#8220;paradise for game hunters&#8221; and the hundreds of hunters of the region spend entire days from dawn to dusk (and sometimes the entire weekend) out there in the Monegros wild with their dogs. And let&#8217;s not talk about the hundreds of shepherds and their dogs, who obviously have no problems in &#8220;being exposed to the harsh environment&#8221; of Los Monegros. <strong>Ask all local monegrinos<\/strong>, and they will certainly tell you that, if you intend to spend a few days and nights <em>al monte<\/em>, you&#8217;d better leave your babies at home, and bring your dogs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.burningmax.com\/growingnowhere\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/davolicchio-davola-monegros-desert.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-491 aligncenter\" alt=\"davolicchio-davola-monegros-desert\" src=\"https:\/\/www.burningmax.com\/growingnowhere\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/davolicchio-davola-monegros-desert.png\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1290\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Seriously &#8211; if the Monegros desert is so bad for dogs, then <strong>we should reconsider the participation of kids<\/strong>, specially the very young ones under 5, sometimes even under 2 or 1 years old. Kids, besides of being exposed to the same harsh conditions as everybody else (and being certainly more fragile than a dog), are also exposed to the &#8220;spirit&#8221; of the community, that sometimes (often) goes past borderline with kinkiness and other extremes. This alone certainly don&#8217;t make Nowhere a &#8220;safe place&#8221; for young participants. Or, if it&#8217;s cool for the babies, then it should be also for a pet. Or are we wrong?<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t get us wrong, at Growing Nowhere we love kids, and <strong>we know that Nowhere is a safe place for babies and kids<\/strong>, if their parents are responsible and well organized. We also know that Nowhere and the Monegros are a safe place for dogs too, if their pet-owners are responsible and well organized. Same goes for the grown-ups. Add a <a title=\"Growing Nowhere's Pet Admission Policy for Nowhere\" href=\"https:\/\/www.burningmax.com\/growingnowhere\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/GrowingNowhere-Proposed-Pet-Admission-Policy.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pet admission policy<\/a> for good measure, and there should be no problems at all.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It&#8217;s all about regulating, instead of prohibiting, banning and excluding<\/strong>. All burners and nowherians are &#8220;regulated&#8221; by the BM principles and infinite check-lists from the Survival Guide or Barrio Bibles. Parents have their &#8220;bringing a baby out there in the dust&#8221; information provided by Malfare\/Inclusion, and artists have their regulations by Art\/Kunsthaus to make sure their art won&#8217;t harm the participants or the environment. Participants who are pet owners have a ban, instead. It should be about inclusion, not exclusion&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, tired of trying to be reasonable and rational with those who don&#8217;t want to hear, <strong>Growing Nowhere and the Nowhere Embassy are now offering a real solution to Nowhere participants with pets<\/strong>, a solution that allows nowherians with pet companions to save money on the bad logistic solution of leaving their pet behind.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our new gift to the community<\/strong> will also allow participants traveling to Spain with pets to keep enjoying the Spanish summertime without the hurry of going back home, and to participate to other summer festivals in France, Spain and Portugal, including the Boom Festival. <em>Note: <\/em>pretty much all outdoors summer festivals in summer regulate but accept the presence of pets. <a title=\"Boom Festival's Pet Policy\" href=\"https:\/\/www.boomfestival.org\/boom2016\/boomguide\/pets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Boom Festival<\/a> has a pet policy that bans dogs from the crowded camping and music performance areas, but pets are still accepted if they have their shelter in a camper van (not in a tend), and stay in the caravan park area (which is huge and also has a beach).

No, he doesn&#8217;t look happy &#8211; who does when you&#8217;re lock in a cell? We really don&#8217;t like to lock animals, and our Davola will stay at friends with a garden during the event, but this is the only viable solution we have found to offer a free, gift economy service to our fellow nowherian pet-owners. Rest assured that the place is clean, big enough for the pets not to feel &#8220;in a cage&#8221;, and in a very quiet countryside place, with no traffic sound, only nature. It&#8217;s a nice place, if it wasn&#8217;t for the locked cells&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Since it&#8217;s not fair to leave the dogs locked for the whole week, Growing Nowhere and Nowhere Embassy will organize a <strong>Nowhere Dog Walking + Swimming Tour<\/strong> for our four legged friends (and their owners) on Thursday early afternoon. We will leave site with the owners of the &#8220;dogs-in-residency&#8221; to go pick-up Davola who will be staying in\u00a0Sari\u00f1ena with friends. We&#8217;ll then go to &#8220;free&#8221; our pets, bringing them for a couple of hours to the amazing close-by <strong>Pantano de San Juan<\/strong>, where Davola will show off to his new furry friends how he can dive into the lake to &#8220;save&#8221; a stick or a pine cone, while the nowherian dog owners can enjoy the fresh waters, the nice pine trees shade, the time with their pet, or all of the above.<\/p>\n<p>The Nowhere Embassy will provide some nice <strong>treats<\/strong> for our furry friends, and fresh (non alcoholic) <strong>drinks<\/strong> for their happy owners. <strong>Bring your own food<\/strong>, drinks, swimming gear and pet toys, and be ready for a collective Leave No Trace sweep before we leave (of course).
