Dog's blood tests for export

[Guest Badger Brock]

Well what I dreaded has happened and my little dog has failed her blood tests, she has to go on antibiotics and then be retested. It means she wont be on the flight on 22 October, luckily I havnt bought my ticket yet. Just for the record my vet charged me £280 for the blood tests, I was staggered. Airpets assured me I wont have to pay any cancellation fee to the Airline, but that was when they were certain the dog would pass her Leptospirosis blood test, so I hope they wont change their mind. What price did anybody else have to pay for the blood tests?

hi

so sorry about your dog...mine has hers on monday and i am worried as we were not taking her in may so she had her full boosters. now we are taking her and i worry that she will fail.

 

i have seen another thread somewhere about dogs failing bloods and there seems to be A LOT recently. i did read that there may have been a problem in the labs and that dogs should be re tested asap...but please dont quote me on that.

 

i think it was on the other site (BE)

 

all the best

Dear Debbie

Thanks so much for your reply and good luck on Monday for the blood tests. I was lucky and got the negative result in 4 days instead of the 10 days anticipated, so hope you get your results quickly. Your dog looks a lot bigger than mine, so hopefully she will have worked through the annual innoculation and will be fine. You dont know what to do for the best do you? I decided in March to have the full jab as mine is always paddling in the river and rooting about so i thought she would be at risk, and I hoped she would be okay 7 months later! Which company are you using to export?

Regards,
