Hi,
We are going on a 3 year placement abroad in Jan 2021 to a country that is a stickler for rules, no exceptions. They require dogs to have a first rabies vaccine, followed by a second one within a month, and then a titre, and only then does the 6 month ‘quarantine’ start before the dog can go. So we have enough time, I would really like him to come with us or as close to our departure date as possible. If there is any problems on arrival he will go into enforced quarantine which I would like to avoid at all costs.
My problem is that I have spoken to two local vet practices, one where he has been since we got him, and both insist that the only rabies vaccine they give is single dose only, then titre test. Does anybody know what I need to ask for in order to have a two dose vaccine? From Googling it seems like the one they use in US/Canada is a two dose version but I can’t find the brand name.
I hope this makes sense! TIA
