Hi There

has anyone took/taking their dog?

What about quarantine?

How much is a dog passport?

 

Cheers

Hi Diane

 

We took our dog it cost £2700 (for a German Shepherd) not including quarrantine of about $750 dollars. I would suggest contacting a pet travel company they will do everything for you. We used Pet Travel Services. They arrange the permit for the dog to travel. Dogs dont need a passport to travel to Oz but do if they are coming back:unsure: Couldn't work that one out myself at the time but hey :biglaugh:

Thank you for getting back so quickly

Oh my word

I wonder why its so expensive ?

[Guest Mrs Braveheart]

I'm afraid it all goes on the size of the dog. Then there is permits, travel crates, flights, handling fees & any other fee they can think of. My last post did not include the vets bill for micro chipping ( if not already done) & blood tests I think cant quite remember but im sure that was another couple of hundred my dog failed a blood test had to be re tested plus anti biotics. Where in Oz are you heading because if it's Perth Byford Q is booked solid to April last I heard. But again a pet transport company will sort that out for you.

:wubclub:Hi we have two huskies to go we rang around but with pet export it was costing 4400 and thats onlt two flights and crates i am doing the permits and the health requirements as it made it cheaper have rang the airport to ask if i can buy the flights but no so i am now going down the line of asking how to become a freight agent lol just to see how much it actually costs for a dog to go.

but ring round as i said if you do the permit licence yourself which isnt hard and ring and book quarantine and then the health requirements which is only applying to defra for a form and see how much cheaper you can get it for

hope this helps and if you find a cheap one pm me lol
