Default Bringing Dogs to Mexico - What I've Learned Thus Far

Hi Pete,

Well, roaming around Mexico for a full month in January sure sounds fantastic!

I have two dogs myself, and I've found out a bit of info on bringing them in ... shouldn't be a big problem. (I'm thinking the bigger hurdle dog-wise will be finding a rental that I like that will let me have these two medium sized doggies.)

I plan on driving my pups over - I don't like the idea of the dogs being in the pet section of the plane, had a bad experience bringing my beloved lab Molly back from Colorado once (she was fine, but she'd be doused with some smelly chemical and was just shivering when I picked her up, some of the stuff looked like it had frozen into her fur).

Anyway, bottom line: there's no quarantine. Need a vet certificate dated within 5 days of crossing the border, showing rabies vacination. From expat pet owners I've asked thus far, the dogs are usually just waived thru, no big deal.
