minipig Posted September 20, 2005 at 02:48 AM Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 at 02:48 AM I am moving to Beijing with my dog next month. Can anyone recommend an English-speaking vet in the Haidian/BLCU area in case of emergencies? And do you know what their charges are like?

gougou Posted September 20, 2005 at 02:29 PM Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 at 02:29 PM I don't have a dog, so I am not really well informed, but I got to know an Italian who arrived a week or two ago, bringing a dog. The poor animal had to stay in his cage (you know, the tiny one that you take on the plane) for several days because the Chinese officials did not accept the documents (even though legally, they were fine.) Only through pulling some strings in Italy and China and some "fees" in the right places did he manage to get his dog back, after like three days of waiting. I don't know whether that is the case every time somebody brings a dog, but you might want to ascertain everything beforehand with the responsible Chinese authorities.

minipig Posted September 22, 2005 at 02:05 AM Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 at 02:05 AM Hi Caitlin, I asked this question myself not too long ago and was helpfully directed to the following websites by a fellow forum member: http://www.autumnleaves.com.cn/relocation/pets.htm http://www.shanghaiguide.com/articles/display_article.php?ArticleID=9 It seems from speaking to people I know that it's actually quite difficult in practice and you may want to consult an agent. Glitch is they usually charge around USD600-1000 per pet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
