Milan - Post Report Question and Answers

Are qualified veterinarians and/or good kennel services available? Do animals need to be quarantined upon entry to the country? Are there other considerations regarding pets that are particular to this country?

Absolutely! Italians, and it seems particularly Milanes, LOVE their dogs! No quarantine necessary, but do make sure to have the European guidelines fullfilled upon entering. Italians are sticklers for bureaucracy, even more than Germans! Veterinarians are plenty and good. We just had a major problem with our 10yr labmix; surgery and all, and he is doing great again. We were lucky to have had our dog at a private home for a week at 35Euro/day. He was included in the family. I don't know of other kennels personally but one of the many pet shops can give that info, as well as one of the many dog walkers you will find in the parks at a daily basis. - Sep 2016
