An email from a very relieved pet traveler:
Hi
It started from DXB to LAX TO purchase a puppy that we fell in love with on
a web site. We kept her with us the whole 2 months in California. On our
journey back to Dubai we reached LAX with the puppy to bring her home. As
she was a registered as an emotional support puppy. She had all the
injections required. Once we arrived at LAX they turned us down because on
Emirates Air they don't allow animals to fly in the cargo due to the long
journey.. Which we informed we could bring her along with us in our flight
home. So I left my daughter with her puppy and returned home to Dubai..
Waiting for my daughter to send her by cargo on another airlines. Now our
puppy was on her way to her new family in Dubai only to be rejected once
again for not having her blood test. We always bring pets from the state
and we never knew they changed the regulations for the USA. We were
devastated when I went to pick her up and discover we were missing a
document that shows we took her blood to be sure she did not have rabies...
Then The Dr in UAE informed us she could not enter and we had 48 hours to
either send her back (with no family there to pick her up) or put her to
sleep. I was shocked and started crying and reached out to anyone who could
help us.. I asked around and nobody could and we would have to decide. From
word of mouth and by Our prayers a very nice Sheikh from Dubai got a hold of
this story and immediately took action. We were able to save our puppy and
she was delivered to our home.. We can't thank enough the people who
reached out and went out of their way to help us. Sheikh was for sure a
big animal lover. I just wish I would of read more into this before I
transferred my puppy. I help so many people in this life and this was a
blessing for Sheikh to help us. Thank you Sheikh for your help. I will be
sure to advise anyone on this new law that took effect the end of February
and we were already in Los Angeles at that time. I am so happy and so very
thankful we have our new addition to the family. I also thank Phil for
helping us in this matter with his great advise.
