[@INTERVENTIONALRADIOL]

We have followed your trip to Alaska in 2017. We are following you on this trip. We are planning to go to Alaska in 2020. We will be following similar routes including the side trip to Prudhoe Bay. Thank you for sharing your memories with us. You are helping us and also thousands of others on how to manage this beautiful trip to Alaska. Safe travels.

Good coverage. Wondering is the. 44 lbs of dog food and treats a total or per dog. Just making sure. Thanks!

this was nothing I hadn't already read on the Web sites for Canada and Us.

Stacey, you rocked those bloopers. Good to see you guys back and woohoo another Alaska tour with y’all Cheers

[@RVingtoAlaska]

Thank you Mary Lou... We will try to put more Bloopers in when we have them. Haha

[@elizabethwhite6364]

Thank you! Very good info!

[@wannabeervn8858]

Thank you so much for the information !!

I don't have an RV. I don't have any pets. And, I'm not going to Alaska. ;-) Still watched the whole video. ♫ Gary, Stacey, Spirit, & Sophie takin their motorhome around the country ♫

[@RVingtoAlaska]

We’ll save you a seat! 😘

[@debbielinker]

Missed you all! I watched every video of your 2017 trip to Alaska. Just wonderful, all the places and grand adventures of that trip. So excited about your upcoming Alaskan travels. I will be watching.

[@tomintemann7844]

What do you do if you have certain breeds of dogs and you want to travel to Alaska from Montana.

[@RVingtoAlaska]

We have every type of dog in Alaska. Breed of dog shouldn’t make any difference. Just make sure they are up to date on their rabies vaccinations and get your health certificates done right before leaving.

[@tomintemann7844]

@@RVingtoAlaska ok thanks for the info. I was just wondering because one of my dogs is blue nose pit/German Rottweiler mix. I just don’t want to get turned away at the Canadian border.

[@mariaplaa]

You didn't need to mail their certificates to Alaska or have import papers? I don't know if Alaska is as strict as Hawaii.

[@roydavis2242]

Some thing to add that travelers might not know. In some states, you will need the rabies vaccination paperwork to stay at state parks. We first encountered this in New York.

[@timcombes9054]

very good info about fur babies. Thank you for the research! God bless you on your travels!

[@nans7142]

Love your channel!! Getting ready to go. Thanks for the vet info about crossing the border! We are suppose to leave this Monday. Do we need that 30 day when we come back from Alaska???? Thanks in advance for any info!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jkaucher1612]

I was wondering that also... I’m hoping to stay in Alaska for at least a couple months.

[@RVingtoAlaska]

No. A health certificate is only necessary for Alaska. But it is possible it may be needed for the State your crossing back into. Washington I don’t think it’s necessary.

[@CaliforniaTravelVideos]

Great job Stacy - really wish Grace, Kaliki and I could have joined your caravan this year :( Happy trails

[@davidw7776]

Did I hear you say only two pets?

[@RVingtoAlaska]

That is what it says officially on the website I found in my research BUT I have never heard anyone having any issues crossing with more than two.

[@davidw7776]

@@RVingtoAlaska was that two per person or RV? We have three dogs...

[@RVingtoAlaska]

It doesn’t specifically say. I’ve put links to the websites I used for his video in the video description. You may want to check those out.

How old is spirit. Such an old soul

[@RVingtoAlaska]

She’s turned 8 this spring.

[@gabrieladickson2826]

So when we have 3 dogs ? It's a no go ?

[@RVingtoAlaska]

You’ll be fine. We are a 3 dog family now ourselves and am not worried. New requirements however have changed but we will be updating that later this winter.

[@gabrieladickson2826]

@@RVingtoAlaska we are moving from Oregon in couple of years. We have cats too. Oh boy. lol.

[@hastyhiker8679]

Found you guys a few weeks back , binge watched your 2017 Alaska trip and have provided your ch to my like minded friends. You guys seem like you have a good time traveling videos are good , looking forward to Alaska 2019!

[@dirtroadsailing6418]

This is the first I've heard about the 30 day limit on the certificate of health before entering Alaska.That makes it really inconvenient for folks that live a long way from Alaska by having to find a Vet near the border. Also, do you have a new towed or are you still going to use your truck?

[@RVingtoAlaska]

I think Alaska thinks most are flying in but I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Again your not asked at the border for it and the info is electronically sent to Alaska. As for our toad the truck is our main towing vehicle. Our Jeep is our homebase car at this time.

[@Siggyroka]

Is it 44# per animal or 44# per coach of dog food?

[@RVingtoAlaska]

It does not say per dog but vehicle. Here is a weblink to that specific page regarding pet food. www.inspection.gc.ca/animals/terrestrial-animals/imports/policies/animal-products-and-by-products/pet-food/eng/1321129023397/1321129556426

[@markk171]

What if you venture to Alaska but decide to stay in Canada for more than 30 days before entering Alaska? Do you have to have you pet checked in Canada?

[@RVingtoAlaska]

I wouldn’t worry about it as long as you do it. The border patrol won’t check it and your Vet will electronically file with Alaska.

[@markk171]

@@RVingtoAlaska Cool Thanks...love your Alaska Videos from 2017! Can't wait to see this new adventure...happy trails and safe travels!
