Website for dogs entering canada, rules

I hear this one is good https://travel.gc.ca/returning/customs/bringing-your-pet-to-canada

Hearsay is about all you will get on the forum. The website is a good idea.

You do not need much.
Dogs to Canada

I bring my dogs back and forth across the border all the time. The border agents have never asked anything about them. Make sure they are up to date on shots and have proof with you. I have only ever been questioned about their dog food. As long as it’s in the original bag and dry it will be ok too.

Here is the link for the Canadian customs page for animals.

Here is the page for dogs.

Thanks!

Everybody is always concerned about entry into Canada.
Don't forget you have to go back home.
The Border is a two way street.

Hahaha, I hope they let me home with pooch. I will have all shot info with me.

We’ve taken our Lab in and out of Canada numerous times and no one has asked to see her paperwork. We are going back to Newfoundland thus summer, and Marine Atlantic has a lot on their website about bringing dogs.

US Border Patrol never seems concerned with her much either. More interested in the vegetables.

But I recommend people carry the dog’s rabies certificate all the time on RV trips anywhere you go. I was required to produce it once at a New York State Park.

We get an international vet certificate from our vet for our trips to the US but we have never been asked for it, either on the Canadian or US side. We have been asked for it at a RV park in the US, they copy and file it for each pet that goes into that park.

In terms of dog food, check the latest "flavour of the month restrictions", we once had our Canadian dog food taken because "it could have been made on the same line" as the beef dog food that was a no-no back then.

We make sure our dog has all up to date shots.
We get asked by dog groomers in the USA all the
time especially Parvo. We use Pet Smart most of
the time because they keep a record on their computers
from place to place, and also because we do not
need to wait three weeks or longer to get him
groomed.
