What type of documentation is required in order to take my pet overseas to Spain (Europe)?

lamela21

I am flying Iberia Airlines at the end of this month. My flight leaves from JFK in New York to Madrid and then connects to Santiago. This is the first year I will be traveling with an animal. He is a 7 pound pomeranian with a microchip and up to date on shots. Iberia's website says I need a pet passport, however I called them and they told me I just needed some kind of vaccine records and records of having a microchip in place. I called my vet and explained to them my situation. They told me I needed an international certificate to travel and that it would be $125. The price of transporting the pet on Iberia is already 300 euros. This is ridiculous, does anybody have any experience in this?

Answer
I'm afraid the info they gave you is correct.You will need an International health certificate,plus statement or verification that you dog is fully vaccinated,a shipping crate or kennel cab large enough for the dog to stand without touching top and where it can easily turn around in the cab,plus must have water dish attached.Most International places require a dog to be quarentined a while after arriving also.You may also try Continental airlines and check to see if they would have any flights going to that destination ,as they may be cheaper.

Pure Black German Shepherds?

Wild Dog

After MUCH consideration I have decided I want a GSD. I have decided, also, that I'd like the dog to be all black, since the breed comes in that variation.

I have heard rumors that this is a rarer color. I don't really care about that, I just like the way it looks as compared to the regular black and tan. Will I have to pay more for one?

I live in the Pennsylvania area, I'm willing to travel. I've looked at petfinder.com and one there has interested me and I've E-mailed the foundation, but I am still browzing. Anyone know any GOOD, REPUTABLE breeders? I am -NOT- against taking a mix if it shares the phenotypical and mental/psychological stature of a GSD.

Any other information would also be appreciated. = )
First answerer: You are incorrect. GSD purebreds may come monochromatic black.
GetEmGang, read the question before you respond. That seems to be a problem with you. I said I would accept a mutt under particular conditions, one of which is if at the time of purchase there is no option for a purebreed. The mutt must also meet the phenotypical standards (of a GSD) and the relative tempermant of the breed fairly accuratly.

You are proving to be a very ignorant person.

Also, do yourself a favor and learn to type coherently.

Answer
this is what the AKC and CKC Breed standard says about color>
Color
The German Shepherd Dog varies in color, and most colors are permissible. Strong rich colors are preferred. Pale, washed-out colors and blues or livers are serious faults. A white dog must be disqualified.

So, please ignore the ones who tell you it is not a proper color.
