Taking dogs into Canada and back
We will be in Ely Minnesota on vacation and plan a trip into to Canada. We will have two dogs with us and plan to stay overnight. Are there any problems with getting our dogs into and out of Canad...

I have personally never travelled with a dog to canada, but I know that pit bulls or any mix thereof, is illegal in Ontario. My sis-in-law has a lovely mixed breed with pit bull in it, and she won't go into Ontario with him.
Pit bulls are not banned from being in Ontario. There is a ban on breeding or purchasing a new pit bull (or mix)
Anyone who already has a valid dog tag for a pit bull is permitted to keep that animal until the dog dies. New dog tags will not be issued for pit bulls.
Visitors are permitted to travel with pit bulls into Ontario.
It is a stupid ban!
That's funny because I just looked it up and everything I see says you can't bring a Pitbull or any mix into Ontario. Can you indentify your source?
This is right off the Ontario Attorney Generals website:
Importing Pit Bulls
It is against the law to bring pit bulls into Ontario, even for a short visit.
There are no exceptions made for:
Tourists
People moving to Ontario, or
Military personnel being transferred to Ontario postings.
