Bringing a dog over from SA to the UK

[Stephanie Plum]

Getting some conflicting advice. In SA the vets are saying there is no quarantine this side, but I am under the impression the dog needs to do a month in kennels over here.

Has anyone done it recently and can advise?

TIA

PS I'll also post in the pets section as it's quite quiet in here

That's what I thought. The dog needs blood tests at the SA end and then a three month wait, but I still imagined a month this side regardless.

Well it's all sorted. Jabs all done in SA, three months wait/blood tests etc and she was on the plane and headed here. Off the plane, quick check over and in the car home, no quarantine at all. For a 14 year old dog, much loved, it was relatively stress free. She's been here for four months now, settled in and happy as anything.

Simples. Thanks all
