Australİa says no !! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

dolce09 · 07-30-2009, 01:49 PM

We are plannİng to move back to australİa after 4 years İn turkey. And the oz quarantİne say that they do not accept anİmals from turkey due to turkey's rabİes status. We have been told that we have only 2 optİons...the fİrst move to a country that wİll accept our puppy and İs on the oz quarantİne lİst for 6 months or leave dolce behİnd İn turkey. I know wrİtİng thİs message wİll not achİeve anythİng except that i just wanna say.......wİth all the tests the the 21st century has..how can İt not clear a 6 month old puppy and allow İt to lİve a lİfe wİth hİs famİly. I feel sİck to the stomach..yes i understand that australİa wants to keep out such dİseases...but come on ....... A 6 month old puppy wİth hİs fİrst 6 shots completed....never untİl now has come İn contact wİth any other dog.....

İt's kİllİng us....... And we know that we should gİve hİm to a good home before he gets any older.........but we are havİng a hard tİme doİng İt.

Anyway i just needed to get thİs off my chest !

Thanks for your attentİon

I am so sorry you have to make that decision

I had looked into moving to Australia for a few years, and I was ready to go through with it until it came down to the animal laws. I couldn't bare to take Layla on such a long plane ride under the cabin and then need to put her in quarantine for months!
I wish you the best of luck with whatever you decide. If I were you I'd probably do anything, even if it meant moving somewhere else for 6 months.

that's horrible. My sister and husband faced a similar but less permanent situation with their cat. My BIL had to moved back to Australia a few years ago for a job and of course my sister was going with him. They have a cat that they wanted to bring with them. He was allowed to go but there was a certain protocol regarding vaccines, microchips, and bloodwork that they needed to follow before he was allowed in the country. He even needed to be shipped a certain way and by certain companies. After getting into the country he would have needed to stay in quarentine for at least a month, maybe 2, i really don't remember. The quarentine place was actually really nice and my sister was allowed to visit everyday.

In the end they opted to leave the cat here with me instead of bringing him because bailey was a huge baby and very sensitive. They were worried he wouldn't survive the plan ride and then the quarentine. They did come back to the US 2 years later and bailey is living with them again (and i got morgan when they took bailey hehe).

The US has rabies disease as well so i don't understand why turkey would be excluded but not the US. Are you sure there is no way for you to bring dolce with you, even if she has to be quarentined for a short period? I know even that would be tough and another decision all together whether that would be best for a puppy but at least it would be another possible option.

we agree we would İf we could afford to ....we would be already there...but the reason we are movİng back to australİa İs because of the fİnancİal sİtuatİon we fİnd ourselves İn.

Thanks for your feedback

gOOD POİNT..YES....WHY İS İT OK FROM THE USA AND NOT HERE ...I WİLL PUT THAT QUESTİON TO THEM...THANK YOU !

Good luck to you guys, I hope you find a good solution.

sugarmamma · 07-30-2009, 03:22 PM

Could someone in the US foster him for 6 months then give him back to you? Just a random thought....

vlccairo · 07-31-2009, 05:22 AM

Oh, no. I can't believe it! There must be some way around this. Do you know someone in an acceptable country who would take him for 6 months? And he is such a sweetie. This really is breaking my heart. There must be some solution. When told that if we had to be evacuated for some reason, Samantha couldn't go, I said then I wouldn't either. But that's not an option for you. I think I'll do some research ...

This was my thought too (see above). There must be SOMETHING we can do to help

lilroxy · 07-31-2009, 06:42 AM

The US has several military bases in Turkey and, technically, they are considered US soil. So what if you found a foster parent on one of the military bases for 6 months? Every base my husband and I have ever been on has a veterinary facility so Dolce wouldn't lack for good care. Would that be acceptable? There's got to be a way.

luvfla · 07-31-2009, 07:56 AM

I think y'all have come up with some wonderful ideas! Surely there is a YTer who would be willing to do this!

nneessaa · 07-31-2009, 09:48 AM

Hmm.. I would be willing to foster him for 6 months as long as you covered his flea medicine/heartgard, vet visits, and handled all the paperwork and flying/transport costs. I could handle toys/treats/food/etc. I was going to foster for a rescue but if you need me send me a PM. I have one Yorkie and do dog sitting, so I will have probably one other dog here. Oh, he has to be semi-well behaved. Not bark too much, and friendly with dogs/people and our cat. If you think this would work I will have to confirm with my parents that it is ok.
