      Yes, I have a big question. Please help me guys.
      My fiance will bring her dog. She is coming from high risk country for rabies. We got to her titer blood test, and results came beginning June. We will do 30 days before arrival to US rabies vaccine. (2nd one)
      The question is does we must to do cdc registered animal care appointment in JFK or Miami Airport? And even we have blood titer test and 2nd vaccination we still have to pay for that checking test? Or how that works ? Thank you so much

      @@ufcmmafighter1921 Hi, if your dog is flying into the US from a high risk rabies country after the 1st of August, 2024 and the permit is also issued after the 1st of August, then you need to fly into an airport where there is a CDC Animal Care Facility as well. You would need to make an appointment with them. The purpose is to evaluate your dog and revaccination of rabies vaccine even if you have a rabies titer test. The appointment and revaccination is chargeable.
      If you're planning on importing your dog before the 31st of August, 2024 and you can also apply for the permit by the 31st of July, 2024. Then you would be able to fly in under the current guidelines which doesn't require an appointment with the CDC Animal care facility or revaccination. You find the steps here: th-cam.com/video/KApt3hqHU_A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ywNUyTiiu1EsIttS

      And my fiancée has final destination to North Carolina. I just do not know how to get her flight tickets then, separate it or like together with one day lay over ?! So confused.

    I have been dealing with this for months. I was supposed to fly my dogs from Dubai to Chicago. Have had to change our flight to Washington DC as it is the closest airport to the midwest that allows travel by excess baggage. Then the flight was delayed because the registered CDC animal care facility wouldn't accept the titer test because one of my dogs' vaccines wasn't given on the day it expired back in 2021 so the 3 year vaccine was null and void. We had to do another vaccine and another titer test...All is now hopefully in order so we can finally travel in November. After they are released from the CDC facility in Washington, DC we will need to fly again to the midwest. At least we can travel together. BTW...how is the UAE a high risk country in the first place?

    • @PAWDEGA
      @PAWDEGA  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm SO sorry to hear this! The regulations make no sense. The fact that you had to revaccinate shows that they don't know how immunization works. I'm so sorry! If you haven't already, take a look at anti-vaccinosis (Rebalancer) to help prevent vaccine side effects: pawdega.com/products/rebalancer Wishing you very safe travels

    We need to talk about the extra fees the care facility is charging, in addition to the microchip, serology, vaccinations, and health certificates. We still have to pay around $1,500 just to bring our furry family members into the country.
    I believe this is a way for the government to discriminate against certain countries. They need to understand that these animals are part of our family. No one would travel or move to another country and leave their child behind, for example.
    It’s not fair that such high costs are imposed on responsible pet owners who are simply trying to bring their beloved companions with them. For many of us, abandoning our pets is not an option. They are our family members, and we deserve to relocate with them without facing prohibitive financial barriers.
    I hope the government will reconsider these fees and regulations and make the process less burdensome for people who just want to keep their families-human or not-together.
    This version emphasizes the emotional aspect while also addressing the financial burden.

I do have one question -- I'm flying from Cape Town to Tampa (usually the route is Cape Town, Atlanta, Tampa). U.S. passport control would be in Atlanta and where I would do the cdc animal care facility check.. how long does this take? Is it enough time to do it over a layover? Or do I only book my final destination after the cdc animal care check is done? Thank you for your recommendation on this!

    Hello! This is great video however how about the process when the dog arrived at the airport?
    1. Upon arrival in US (e.g Atlanta), where will the importer and dog go? Will they be accompanied by an airline staff to custom and Animal Care Facility?
    2. Will the importer be allowed to go with the dog in the ACF? If not, then will the importer go through refular customs and wait for her dog?
    3. Will someone notify the importer that dog is cleared by CDC, ACF and US customs?
    4. Where will the importer pay the checkup fee and customs fee?
    5. Sample of my final destination is Sacramento, will the importer need to wait one day and book a hotel while waiting for the dog?
    Those process upon arrival is what Im looking for. All the vlogs talks about the requirement but none so far talks about the process and steps when the passenger and dog arrived the US. It would be helpful if there is.
    Thanks!

    2nd question is, you said lax is charging over a 1,000 but there is another place on that list that qoute 900.00 just an fyi.

    • @PAWDEGA
      @PAWDEGA  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hey Cindy, Thanks for your comment. This is a great question. Based on my experience traveling in the US, all passengers with connecting flights in the US would need to exit the aircraft and clear US immigration and customs. This means the connecting city would actually be the Port of Entry (if you are traveling with a pet in the cabin or pet as excess baggage). In this case, this would not be allowed and may cause some issues. I would get in touch with a CDC-Animal Care Facility as they would be able to best advise on this.

    Thanks for this updated video! I do have a question. We are in Brazil and dogs get vaccinated yearly for rabies here, not every three years. Our dog got her first rabies vaccine on Sept. 8, 2023 at 13 weeks. So she is due for next vaccine in September. We are flying with her in mid October. Her titer was drawn last week. Are you saying she would need another titer drawn 30 days after second vaccine? I understood that as long as she gets vaccinated on schedule she does not need another titer??

      Hey, Thanks for reaching out. Your veterinarian would only fill out the US-issued vaccination form if your dog was vaccinated against rabies in the US. If you have a US Rabies Vaccination Certificate then you will only need this cerificate and an approved CDC Import Form for the import in the USA.
      If your dog has been vaccinated against rabies outside the US, then your veterinarian will need to complete the
      Certification of Foreign Rabies Vaccination and Microchip form. You’ll also need to follow all the other steps required for import. You can find more information here:
