Moving to Oz with a Husky
 
Has anyone moved to Australia with their Husky?

Also, is it best to use a pet agent or is doing all the paperwork and arrangements yourself?

My heart is in my mouth at the thought of our little boy in the cargo hold :( I wish they had planes where he could sit with us :)

We have just moved back from oz with our dog but we had her under the pet passport scheme so she flew on a flight and we got her straight of the plane with no quarantine
yes we used a pet transport called jet pets they were great and i did costs and they done it for us only a little bit more than what i could fly here for

Hope you're moving to Melbourne x Huskies don't like hot weather (Don't worry Melbournites know it's hot there too - just a better option than NT :blink:) Hubby wants a Husky and I've told him it's a no go cos we'll be in Perth :unsure:

In Queensland I've seen quite a few huskies and malamutes around with their fur shaved.

There were quite a few huskies near us when we were north of Brisbane and there's a dog walker here in the Blue Mountains that always seems to have a shed load of them. (Perhaps that should be sled load?)

None of them were shaved, probably clipped though.

I'm already in a delicate state having introduced the boys to the delights of Trainspotting.. that thought might just push me over the edge :D

Might be an option when the kids are a bit older - they are so beautiful. Good luck with shipping him over x
