Important new rules for bringing dogs into the USA, please read if you plan to take your pet on vacation with you, particularly to Canada.
The main things are: owners need to fill out a form before coming back into the USA, and your pet must be microchipped.

In a change of course, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says for dogs that have only been in dog rabies-free or low-risk countries in the past six months before U.S. entry, the CDC Dog Import Form is the only form that is needed, starting August 1.

🍀 Celebrate St. Patrick's Day with Irish Dog Breeds and Interesting Facts! 🐾

💚 Irish Wolfhound
The Irish Wolfhound is the tallest of all dog breeds, with males standing up to a minimum of 32 inches at the shoulder. If an Irish Wolfhound stands on their hind legs, they may be 7 feet tall.

🤍 Glen of Imaal Terrier
The Glen of Imaal Terrier neared extinction due to declining demand for its original purpose in Ireland's Glen of Imaal. Despite revival efforts, it remains one of the rarest dog breeds, also the least-known among Irish terriers.

🧡 Irish Red and White Setter
The Irish Red and White Setter, older than the Irish Setter, dates to the 1600s. Despite the latter's greater popularity, the red color's rise led to all-red setters dominating. Yet, public outcry preserved the traditional red and white color, ensuring the survival of the Irish Red and White Setter.

💚 Irish Red Setter
Standard breed colours for the Irish Setter include mahogany, chestnut, and red. The solid-red colouring became popular in Ireland in the 19th century.

🤍 Irish Terrier
Throughout history, Irish Terriers have been the favourite breed by many notable figures, including American President Theodore Roosevelt, who owned an Irish Terrier named Jack. This led to the breed being nicknamed "the daredevil of the dog world," in reference to Roosevelt's adventurous spirit.

🧡 Irish Water Spaniel
Boatswain, the Irish Water Spaniel owned by Justin McCarthy, is credited with giving the breed the distinctive appearance it bears today. In fact, Boatswain was thought to have lived to the ripe old age of 20.

💚 Kerry Blue Terrier
Irish national leader Michael Collins owned a Kerry blue terrier named Convict 224. Collins was a major player in the push for the breed to become the National Dog of Ireland.

🤍 Wheaten Terrier
Due to ownership restrictions, farmers relied on Wheatens for various tasks: herding, vermin hunting, guarding, and gun work. Their versatility persists; they excel in Agility, Tracking, and Herding competitions.

🧡 Happy St. Patrick's Day to you and your beloved furry companions! 🐶🐾
