Rules for Bringing Your Dog to the USA

[@gregorybrown8756]

So, as an American citizen and I have a cottage in Ontario, if I get a new puppy, I can't travel for 6 f-ing months??? Absolutely bullshit.

This is a real problem when professional handlers go to Canada and show multiple dogs at a Canadian show and come back. Canada will lose a lot of funds. There should be something put in place for dogs that have all of their health shots and meet requirements.

And similarly Canadians who show their dogs in USA, especially the casual ones, may think twice about going to shows. USA also looses $$: ring fees, hotels, restos, etc

As always CDC not doing such a good job of planning and applying one situation to all. Very stupid.

[@Zinctwentyone]

Imagine a CDC rep evaluating your dog.

This is just crazy! Not only do you have to get your vet to sign the form, but then it ALSO has to be signed by an 'official' government vet that certifies that your vet is a vet and also reviews the documents! There are going to be a lot of dogs left in airports...

[@gregorybrown8756]

Not the CDCs jurisdiction.

[@jamessullenriot]

So stricter with dogs than they are with the southern border

[@guardianhounds]

its so stupid because they are doing this for countries where rabies is not a risk so its not because of high risk of rabies its just utter nonsense.

How does this work for my situation?! I’ve put down money on a puppy that I am supposed to bring home this summer and she will be 9 weeks past August 1st!! 😢 I’m getting her from Canada.

Go before July 31. Make sure you have your paperwork in order.
