For paperwork, you need the Coggins
within 6 months, and then you need an international health certificate, which
is different from the interstate form. Heidi
And: make sure that the paperwork IS the International.
I questioned a H.C. on Interstate Form but was sent on ahead (the vet refused to
rewrite stating I was mistaken). At the Canadian Border was told: "Wrong
Paperwork" "It will be 4 days before the Vet is here. Pull over and camp."
With horse, kids, dogs we silently opted for, thankfully close, - 4
other border crossing tries, we finally got a "Tech" (with "Horse knowledge" who
let us through). However, we ended up being "Quarantined" at the
destination until a "Federal Vet" could come "Examine the Horse" (one month
later). All because of an error in paperwork. Vicki
