We've just been working through the paperwork to see the requirements for a client who also hopes to go to Australia. Had to go through everything a couple of times to understand what was needed. The stuff that has to be done in the last 30 days is quite staggering.

Good luck to you!

Thank you - will be definitely looking for a good vet in Perth for him and am looking for transport companies as well.

The lepto hoop to jump through is a blood test - they don't allow dogs with lepto antibodies ( I think?) in and if he has then we restest....but it all has to be timed correctly.

If you read section 7 and 12 in the dog section it explains it well, I only know this as was looking it up the other day! :)
