Carrie Jo,
I came to Bahrain this past March and brought my chihuahua over. Contact Dr. Nonie Coutts office here in Bahrain. It's a local veterinary office. They were great!

Your husband can do it personally or you can via email. They're VERY responsive. They will help you get all the info you need on this end to bring your dogs over. Just keep in mind there is a required rabies test that needs to be done and its mandatory that is sent to one of 2 specific labs in the U.S. So plan ahead because it can take time.
Feel free to contact me if you have questions.

Best of Luck,
Cara
