Border crossing with a pet
What do we need as far as paper work to cross the border with a dog? This would be from US to Canada and back to US. Thanks, Bob and Pat

I wish I could say the same for our US Customs people. They are abrupt, suspicious and make one feel unwelcome when returning to the US.
Our crossings into Alaska have always been pleasant. The US agents we've met even had a sense of humour.
One asked our exuberant 90lb dog if she was friendly or whether she was a trained licker. Ursa learned as a young girl that people at the window mean cookies so she's always clamoring at the window to get her treats. The agent didn't have any, but he did get a lick on his nose.
Another agent let me keep my oranges after I had peeled them and left the peels with him for 'disposal in their nuclear incineration device' (his words).
One commented on my husband's t-shirt for Moose Drool Beer, remarking that it was a fine beer and contemplated if there was any available in Alaska (not!).
So maybe you need to bring those RVs and pets to Alaska for a visit!
