CDC Updates Process of Dog Importation into the United States

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has clarified and simplified the process for bringing dogs into the United States from rabies-free and low-risk dog rabies countries. The CDC aims to protect the health of U.S. communities and animals and prevent the re-introduction of dog rabies to the United States.
