Important information for traveling to Canada with your pets!

BREAKING: Updates to Canada travel

Hey there! Do you live on the border of Maine and Canada? Do you travel back and forth frequently? Are you planning on vacationing in the Maritimes this summer, or taking a long weekend in Quebec? Will your dog be accompanying you?

The USDA and CDC have passed new regulations concerning travel with dogs, specifically relating to returning into the US from any other country. This will typically affect us in regards to Canada travel, but would also apply if you were taking a trip to Mexico with your dog. Whereas a simple up-to-date rabies certificate was previously the only documentation necessary to cross the border, re-entry to the US now requires a Certification of US-issued Rabies Vaccination. This form must be endorsed by the USDA and must accompany you and your dog on your trip; your dog also must be microchipped in order to cross the border.

There is a lot of information pursuant to this change and these requirements - you can find answers to most (or hopefully all!) of your questions at https://www.cdc.gov/importation/dogs/enter-the-us.html .

If you are planning travel with your dog into Canada this summer or later, please allow as much time as possible for us to process the paperwork for you; your dog may not need an office visit as long as they are up to date, but will need to be microchipped if they currently aren't and their rabies vaccine must be current. Give us a call if you will need this service!
