Are you planning on traveling with your pet soon? The requirements for export of
animals to certain commonwealths that are free of rabies can be particularly stringent and complicated. Treatments, administration of vaccines and or diagnostic test all must be done in accordance with their guidelines set forth. If they are not done properly, they can deny or delay entry of an animal into a territory. This can result in significant delays and costly expenditures for the pet owner on top of the emotional distress of having a potential quarantine for several months. You can check the USDA website or call Westgate Pet Clinic and we can help your plans. We often coordinate with a pet travel agency and the local USDA administration office to ensure all paperwork is filled out properly and the tests and treatments are all done to exact requirements.
