Gcpacs Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Hi, we are planning on moving to NSW in July/August this year and we want to take our dog with us, she will be 12 in July. She has had the rabbies injunction approx 3 years ago (we had planned on moving earlier) and is know due for the booster ... She has not had any blood tests. Do we have to wait 6 months before we can fly her out? Another question I had was if we fly to New Zealand then on to Australia will we be able to by pass quarantine? I know there is no quarantine in New Zealand. Many thanks x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobPetairUK Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Hi Sorry to say this, but you are pretty much back to square one with your dog. She will need a rabies vaccine, 3-4 week wait and then rabies blood sample and then 180 day wait. So it is going to be around 7 months before she can fly. NZ does have 10 days quarantine as well, but if you fly a dog from UK to NZ and then want to take them to Australia they have to be in NZ for at least 90 days, so it is not actually going to make things much quicker if your final destination is Australia. Sorry not to be bearing better news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Tom Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 We have had the rabies blood tests completed today, so 180 days from today is April 25th. We will get the results back in about 10-14 days. What further tests for the blood/rabies test need completing before we allocate a Shipping Company?

BobPetairUK Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Nothing - get the rabies blood sample back, then you can allocate a shipping company and then your pet needs tests/checks more close to the flight date, but depending on who you use they/we will or will nto assist with them.
