taking pets back to uk
 
Has anyone had experience flying their pet dog back into the UK from Canada, specifically BC? All info would be helpful.

Have you seen the Wiki at the top of the page?

I don't know if there's anything specific to Canada, but it's a good place to start.

yes we used lady haye check it out on the net. They booked the flight etc and give instructions. But first you must get the animal chipped (that reads in the UK),then i think its the rabies shot,then the blood work. I will try and look up all the details for you later. They are very strict,so every thing has to be done in the order you are told,but it is do-able :thumbsup:

Blood titer test is no longer required. Just the rabies shot (given by a USDA approved vet) 21 days ahead of trip + worming for tapeworms 1 - 5 days before flight.
