🚨Attention Travelling Pet Parents🚨

Effective August 1, 2024, pet parents must adhere to new CDC requirements for importing dogs into the U.S. through all borders, including land and air. Key requirements include:

1️⃣Dogs must appear healthy upon arrival.
2️⃣Dogs must be at least six months old.
3️⃣Dogs must have an ISO-compatible microchip for identification.
4️⃣Dogs must have a Certification of Foreign or U.S.-issued Rabies Vaccination**
5️⃣Dogs must be accompanied by a CDC Dog Import Form receipt
☝🏼Additional requirements vary based on the dog's country of origin and vaccination status

These rules apply to all dogs, including puppies, service animals, and dogs that left the United States and are returning. They also apply whether you are a U.S. citizen, legal U.S. resident, or foreign national.

To learn what you need to travel with your pet, explore the CDC website and leverage their "DogBot" to learn the specific requirements you need to fulfill: https://bit.ly/2rww2bq
Once you know what your pet needs, contact your veterinarian for any required vaccinations, microchips, or examinations, etc.

Please share this post to keep other pet parents informed🔁



**When traveling from Canada to the USA, dogs without rabies vaccinations may still enter, as Canada is deemed a 'low risk' country (provided the dog has not traveled to certain countries within the past six months). Required documentation and a microchip are necessary, but a rabies vaccine is not mandatory. However, without the rabies vaccination, the paperwork is valid for only a single entry into the USA for up to 30 days. In contrast, vaccinated dogs can enjoy significantly longer validity and multiple entries.
