Here's what to know if you are traveling abroad with your dog
The U.S. government has updated its rules for bringing a dog into the country. The regulations apply to all dogs _ whether you are returning from a trip overseas with Rover, visiting the U.S., or adopting a dog from abroad. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention last updated these rules in 1956, when far fewer dogs came to the U.S. from other countries. The rules are designed to help prevent the spread of rabies from countries where the disease is more common. There are stricter rules for any dog that has been in one of those countries within the past six months.
