Traveling with a pet always requires preparation, but when it involves leaving a high-risk rabies country, the requirements become even stricter. At Across The Pond Pets, we understand the challenges families face when relocating pets internationally and provide the guidance needed to comply with global health and safety regulations.
Serving in the military often means frequent moves, including overseas assignments. For families with pets, these Permanent Change of Station (PCS) moves can bring significant challenges — both logistical and financial. Fortunately, organizations like SPCA International provide grants to help offset the high cost of transporting pets during PCS moves.
Across The Pond Pets specializes in global pet relocations, ensuring your furry family members travel safely and comfortably. Operating out of Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), our experienced team handles every detail of your pet's journey, from LAX pet transport and airline check-in to documentation and customs clearance.
When planning international pet travel, one of the most important documents you’ll encounter is the USDA APHIS Health Certificate (APHIS 7001). Whether you’re relocating, traveling for work, or embarking on a long vacation, this form is essential for getting your pet cleared for international entry. But what exactly is the APHIS 7001, how do you get it, and why is it so important?
Planning a trip with your pet can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. With smart preparation, the right paperwork, and a calm, step-by-step approach, you and your furry family member can enjoy a smooth, safe journey.
