moving with dog from US
 

Has anyone any experience with moving a pet/dog from US to Australia??? Any information will be welcome. Thanks

Contact the Department of Customs and Immigration as we are not game to suggest anything on this site anymore

Hi--<BR>I've been toying w/the idea of teaching abroad for a year and have a cat, so I've looked into this. Australia has a one year quarantine period for pets :-(<BR><BR><BR>Debbie

Actually, I have contacted the Australian authorities - for pets you have to have them tested for rabies at up to 150 days prior to departure and then they have to be in quarantine for 30 days as the 150 days decrease for the test the quarantine days increase. They also have to have a microchip in place before the test.<BR>I was actually trying to find out if anyone had any recommendations as to the actual transportation eg companies to use, sedation etc.<BR>Liz, why no suggestions anymore???

Oh my!!<BR>It seems someone is able to hack in and alter posts!!!<BR>I DID NOT add &lt; Liz, why no suggestions<BR> anymore??? &gt; to the end of my post.<BR>What is going on here????<BR>

I emigrated with 2 cats from the UK and we had to keep them in quarantine for 30 days...<BR><BR>check out www.aqis.gov.au for US requirements though.<BR><BR>sonia

Sonia, thanks for that site address. It has all the information well laid out.<BR>Anyone used a pet transport company in US who they may recommend
