Mike J Schoonbrood Webboard User Reg: 04-30-2005 Posts: 2784 Loc: Toronto, ON Offline	Uhm, I was just reading this information on DogFriendly.com regarding importing a dog to the USA.... "Young puppies must be confined at a place of the owner's choosing until they are three months old, then they must be vaccinated. They must remain in confinement for 30 days after the vaccination." Is this true!??? I didn't know there was a quarantine period for puppies?? If it's true I'm really really annoyed!

Mike J Schoonbrood Webboard User Reg: 04-30-2005 Posts: 2784 Loc: Toronto, ON Offline	OK I finally found the CDC page that explains that confinement means that I, as the importer, will keep the dog confined to my house/yard till 3 months old... that's what I understand from it anyway, can anyone that's imported a puppy confirm this?

But- I've never seen or heard of any follow up to verify that you actually do it. Just don't brag about when it'll start training, etc to the Customs Officer! They'll also ask what the puppy is for (family pet used to be the safest answer) and how much it's worth.

I just got an email back from DTC, they didn't really answer my question about whether you can fly an 8 week old pup, but they did send me a shipping quote so I can only assume the answer is yes. Either way, Continental and Delta both allow 8 week old pups to be shipped so there are at least those options. Shipping via DTC with pick up etc came to ~€600, more than I anticipated, but not bad.
