Planning to travel from Mexico to the United States with your dog? As you prepare, check the current U.S. entry requirements and, if you’re flying, your airline’s pet travel policy. Both can change. At Animalove, the first step toward getting a screwworm certificate is a physical exam. Your veterinarian checks your dog’s skin for signs of screwworm larvae, paying close attention to any wounds. They also review your dog’s vaccination and deworming records before preparing the initial health certificate.
The official certificate is valid for only a short time. Contact us in advance with your travel date so we can schedule the exam and arrange for you to pick up the paperwork before you leave. For your appointment, have your contact information and your dog’s microchip number handy, and bring paper copies of your dog’s vaccination and deworming records. For details on timing and a step-by-step guide to the process, follow the link below to read the full article on our veterinary science blog.
