I came to Toronto two years ago with a Work Permit and brought my two dogs with me (Yorkshire Terrier and Cocker Spaniel), it was pretty easy at customs, I brought the vaccination card and a letter from a Veterinarian stating the good health of the dogs, the custom officed not even bothered to look at the documents, just said go ahead, it was simple.

Hi, my parents flew their dog out to Edmonton 7 yrs ago when they got their permanent resident visa.  They used a guy who arranged all the flights, paper work and sky kennel, dogs from uk do not need to go into quarantine as no rabies here! As far as I can remember the dog needed a microchip and seen by a vet within 48 hrs of travel. The dog flew with air canada, Belfast-London-Calgary-Edmonton.

I too hope to move this year with my dog (weimaraner) to Vancouver Island. I am taking him to the vet tomorrow to get his rabies vaccine as he may have to go via Germany or USA where they have rabies. The vaccine needs to be given 30 days before travel.

Hope this helps

Hi Jnathan,

We came by Air Canada, so far the best airline to travel with pets, but it's not cheap. You need to check their website to see their requirements/restrictions.
