Guest Wendy Sparrow Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Hi I have 2 Staffordshire Bull Terriers one dog aged 10yrs (22kg) & a bitch aged 5yrs (18kg). I'd be most grateful if you can tell me the process, timescale & cost for my dogs to travel & live in Perth. Many Thanks Wendy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobPetairUK Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Dear Wendy The process of importing dogs to Australia is as below: 6-12 months before flight date - get rabies vaccination and then 3-4 weeks after a rabies blood test (this rabies blood tests ideally needs doing at least 5 months before the flight date). Also try to make sure your vet does not give the dogs a Leptospira vaccination Either assign a pet shipper who does it all for you (like us :biggrin:) OR get import permit and apply for quarantine space - with Perth you should do this as early as possible Within 30 days of the flight the dogs need blood tests to check they have no exotic diseases. Within 4 days of the flight the dogs need a health check and government paperwork completing. Day 0 - flight day! Then minimum 30 days quarantine. Rough costs - flight ticket and crates - £3100, full service (to include pre travel bloods/paperwork/collection) - £4397 - both are very approximate prices Hope that helps and if you require a formal quote then hop onto our website and we can send over a more full quote.

Guest Wendy Sparrow Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Hi Bob, The price £4397 is that for 1 dog or both dogs as i understand that they would be allowed to share a crate. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobPetairUK Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Dear Wendy That is for both dogs and they would not be allowed to share a crate on the flight, but can share a run on quarantine. Just fyi the prices do not include quarantine costs which will be $2300 AUD for both dogs to share. Anything else - let me know Bob http://www.petairuk.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
