Travelling with my pet chihuahua

Question
Hi, my family and I will be moving to the US next year,
earliest on March and latest by July 2010. I'd like to take
my male chihuahua dog. He turned 1 last October 2008. He
has his paper, I think he lacks just one vaccine. I want to
know what I need to prepare for in order to be able to
surely take him with us. Thank you!


Answer
It's very easy to bring the dog to usa.  Health cert issued within
10 days of travel and a valid rabies vac.  You might even be able to
bring him in the cabin with you.  You would need to get this info from the passenger reservation people of the airline you travel on
