saluki lovers

Relaxation of quarantine laws. What are peoples views? As of 1st jan, quarantine will only be 3 weeks and only need a vaccination against rabies and that's it. I think the Saluki lovers will like as they can now bring in Saluki's from abroad without a 6 month quarantine.I personally think its too short but would you risk an import with only being 3 weeks in quarantine?

there is absolutly no need to put a dog in quaranteen if a dog has been rabbies jabed and then blood tested and a posative teta is atchieved and the dog is flea sprayed and treated against tick and worm microchiped the passport is legal and why not the rest of europe has been doing it for donkeys years ..if the country you import from is not part of the pet passport sceme things are slightly different due to a higher risk orf rabbies otherwise perfectly safe otherwise defra would not sanction it simple ..

I certainly welcome the change 10 months is a long wait, you couldn't bring a pup in any younger than that with the old system meaning you missed out on the rearing.

 

It is still longer than a 3 week wait, if it's a pup the pup has to be 12 week before the rabies jab can be given then its a week or 2 before a titer test can be done to check for active rabies antibodies after the jab then it is a 3 week wait.

 

Personally I do not believe there to any more risk, than th current risk from bat which already carry rabies in the UK.

It appears they have done away with it, at least the necessity that it is carried out within 24hrs of travelling which can mean multiple/overdoses if there are changes in flights etc. I was incredibly lucky to get a window between the volcanic activity effecting flightinto the UK when I brought Nura in. What is needed now is more animal receiving centres so I don't have to drive 1000miles to Heathrow again.

Thats like asking how long is a piece of string. There are too many variables, I would doubt you could do it for less than £2000 at the cheapest and that would be with someone gifting the dog and boarding it without charge, it is a lot of work for the exporter.

I drove a 1000 mile round trip straight from a full days work on my own as my O/H had stay to look after the rest of the animals, it took exactly 24 hrs from leaving home to getting back home again. The plan was to get a couple of hours sleep at Heathrow while waiting for the paperwork to clear but I was too worried about something going wrong, if the slightest detail was wrong on the paperwork it could have meant 6 months quarantine or sending her back to the US again to start all over again. All in all I had been awake for 36hrs, I'd do it again for my next one.
