Check these links in order.

Other people have brought their dogs with them - although they have said it was very long and drawn out and not cheap. Sorry not much help but at last you know you can bring her

thanks for the help

Hi
I moved out here in January to be with my husband who moved here in June last year. We decided to move our nearly 3 year old Beagle (Maddie) out with us (she is part of our family!) and asked around for the best company to use. We used a company called JCS Livestock (jamescargo.com), they weren't the cheapest company but they were certainly the best. They provided everything for us and kept us up to date with the process. I even phoned the kennels that Maddie went into for a couple of nights before the flight. Everyone was amazing and I can't recommend them enough.
Hope it all works out for you

Purely out of interest. How much does it cost to bring a dog out here? I know they do sell dogs at pet shops here also.
