We have crossed the border 4 times over the years. Only twice, with visible dogs in the vehicle, have we been asked if they had their shots. Neither time were we asked for any paperwork to prove it (which we always carry).
We do worry about bringing dog food into the USA (but not back into Canada). We buy the smallest size bag and keep it sealed. We bring enough un-bagged dog food to get us to the border - not enough to worry about if they wanted to seize it (which they have never done). Only once have we had an Agricultural Inspection when entering the USA in Vermont.
