Aha, thanks for that, I've just been googling them

Just one that the cross breeders in the UK have come up with

Also the compulsary (spelling?) quarantine on entry to Australia is harsh on a young pup/dog that has just travelled possibly half way around the world. They must be sealed into their crate in the country of origin (where they must have lived for a min 6 months) and then are only allowed out to enter into quarantine. I understand the need for precautions against rabies, but surely if a dog has been x weeks after a positive titre, the quarantine could be relaxed a little?

I know, I think the quarantine should be 2 weeks at most. I mean the quarantines here aren't bad, they have a large enclosure to run around in, but no I agree, after a long trip going to a strange place like a quarantine kennel where there are a whole bunch of other dogs there can be quite daunting.

Isn't there a regulation (like the one that puts the rules to go to UK and Ireland) that allows the puppy to have a blood sample taken a month after the vaccinations to get the anticorps titles and then 6 months later it can be brought without any quarantine?

The fisrt dogs would be very difficult to be brought there, I realise indeed, but it still would be better than the compulsory (that's the spelling Shadowlands ) quarantine!
