What countries in the world require a passport for a dog?

I plan to go on vacation to another country and I would like to bring along my dog. What countries, do you know require that a dog should have a passport?

All countries require health certificates, microchips and rabies vaccines. I would check with your vet and the consult to the country you are visiting. Airlines have special requirements too, so check with them when you make reservations. Good luck and have a great trip.

Very few.You obviously don't understand the difference between the "Pet Passport" used to allow qualifying dogs to travel around the European Economic Community and the British Isles, and the passport-with-visas that a citizen carries when travelling abroad.EVERY nation places health requirements on livestock and plant materials that people wish to bring in to the nation, in order to keep out viruses and insect pests and bacteria and ticks, etc, that the nation is so far free of. In the case of dogs, the usual requirement is an inspection and blood titration by a vet licensed by the nation's Ministry of Agriculture BEFORE the pooch gets on the ship or plane (my X litter got born in Britain because the pregnant German brood failed one of the titrate tests so was refused access to the plane she was booked onto), and a thorough inspection on arrival. Clean countries such as Australia and NZ then require that the pooch spends a session in quarantine, unless the pooch arrives after a residency period in the other, or Britain, or Hawaii, or Scandinavia. (Points out how few truly clean countries there are, biologically, eh!)So you need to write down the order of the countries you intend to travel through (which might be none, if you fly non-stop from home to the destination country), then contact either the embassy/consulate of each country you propose to go through, or your own Agriculture Dept, and find out the regulations for entry into each country from each preceding country.A blind person can have the quarantine set aside for their guide dog, but no-one can have it set aside for a pet dog.Unless you live in that "Pet Passport" area, I reckon that you'll need to find a top-quality boarding kennel for your pet while you are away travelling.â—™ Add http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/The_GSD_Source to your browser's Bookmarks or Favorites so that you can easily look up such as rescue groups, feeding, vaccinations, worming, clubs, teething, neutering, size, diseases, genetics.â—™ To ask about GSDs, join some of the 400+ YahooGroups dedicated to various aspects of living with them.
