Kennel cough outbreak
Just a word of warning to those coming over with their lovely pooch, although its not a requirement to have you dog vaccinated against it I woud strongly advise it. We only found out just before she flew out that it wasnt included in the required vaccines so she didnt have it and luckily she didnt get it whilst in quaranntine. However we did have her vaccinated once here and recently put her into kennels for a few days where she contracted a mild dose of it 
which was bad enough. Local vet said its rife here at the moment.
