Okay that’s good to know. I’m hoping to bring my dog to DR in the spring and contacted the DR Embassy for the form that the vet needs to fill out. They’re the ones that told me about legalizing the forms and the fee. I thought ... Read More

Hi Don’t the certificates (health & vaccination) have to be legalized by the DR Embassy for a fee? I was told the fee in Ottawa would be $100 and this should be done within 15 - 20 days of your flight. Read More

Pets traveling to the Dominican by andibarnes
My husband, myself, and our kids are relocating to the DR for two years in a couple of months. We have 2 small dachshunds that we will be bringing also and I am confused on their paperwork. I know that the DR has a special APHIS form and that it ...
Thanks for that information with Westjet! I’ve heard they were a good airline to fly pets. I’m still trying to get my dog into a cabin acceptable carrier but if that fails I’ll definitely fly him in Westjet cargo. I hope you ... Read More

I wish you the best too and congratulations Planner, that’s a dream come true! Will you need a bookkeeper with 16yrs experience and an intense dislike of Canadian winters? Haha...I had to ask! Read More

I too am in Ottawa and already wearing a coat and gloves when I walk the dogs. The leaves started changing really early this year, around beginning of August! Unfortunately my plans to move to DR this fall are on hold until the spring as my condo ... Read More

Thank you Planner for the information. One less expense to worry about. I have one dog but plan to get another when I'm down there (from Judy's pet lodge I hope). Read More
