Traveling internationally with a dog requires careful planning. The entire process can be stressful on both you and your pet. Planning is important to ensure your dog arrives at your destination in a safe and timely manner. Depending on your destination and your mode of transit, there are different requirements.
A few common items you might want to look into include knowing if there are any quarantine periods once you enter any new countries, is your dog up to date on its vaccinations or is it required to be microchipped for entry. In addition to country requirements, there are transportation logistics. It’s these logistics that often make people hesitant to travel with their pets in the first place.
