[NAGDU] Urgent question, traveling abroad with guide dog

[terrie arnold]

Yes you have to get a health certification through the US department of agriculture for your dog, going to a foreign country first question I have for you where did your dog graduate from if you want the pilot dogs you may have to pay a fee of $550 to get your dog in the country we may have to send that before hand so went to England last year and had to pay the fee five days beforehand didn't know about it so that yes you may need to get your dog wormed you may need to get him rebeck sedated for rabies as well so it might be a pricey proposition taking your dog to hungry sorry to say so check very very very carefullyx

My thoughts for today
