Update: Canines in Canada
While this is certainly not breaking news, I figured I would answer my own question from earlier today since I tracked down the answer. Read on for the nitty-gritty on traveling to Canada with your dogs.
So, after a little bit of searching, I found out that it is relatively easy to take dogs into Canada while passing through the country for travel. Americans entering Canada with dogs three months and older must bring a certificate showing that the dog has been vaccinated against rabies within the last three years, and the certificate must be dated and signed by a veterinarian. It must also identify the animal by breed, age, sex, coloring, and any distinguishing marks. Dogs under 3 months old aren’t required to have a rabies certificate; they just need to be in good health. Pretty easy.
how do they know if the dog is over 3 months old? cut it in half and count the rings?
