I don't know if any of you have a service dog, but if you know someone who does, pass this along. In almost every country in the world, they recognize service animals. If you're taking one on a plane, you'll need a current health certificate, and rabies certificate. Most countries prefer the oie/favn test to stay current also. If your going to travel to Hawaii, for instance, you need to let the state know ahead of time. If the animal is not a service dog, it takes 120 days to get it into the state. With a service animal it takes a week. if you know how. You should contact the country where you'll be visiting. Don't just take the word of the emails they send though. Find a phone number on the link. When you talk to them in person, the rules for service animals are always dependant on what service the animal provides. International, or just around your country, traveling with a service animal takes planning. There are links on the web for any country you'll visit. Take the time to find out about your legal rights in that country. Be prepared with a first aid kit for the animal and take food also. Checking out vetrinarian's in the cities you'll visit and having all the information handy before you are ready to board the plane is also important. In hawaii, the weather is perfect, and it's a great place to vacation. If your animal isn't a service animal, leave them home. It's extremely expensive to bring them in, and it's a head ache too. And as I said, it also takes at least 120 days preparation in advance. Happy traveling.
