New Importation Rules Aim to Strengthen Rabies Protection
The CDC emphasizes that the new measures are crucial in preventing the reintroduction of canine rabies to the United States, which has been rabies-free since 2007. Over 100 countries still grapple with canine rabies, and unvaccinated dogs can contract the disease from wildlife.
David Daigle, a CDC spokesperson, noted that the new rules are designed to "reduce fraud and improve the U.S. government's ability to verify that imported dogs have met U.S. entry requirements."
With these regulations going into effect soon, pet owners and travelers are urged to plan in advance to meet the new import requirements and ensure a smooth entry for their furry companions.
