A new pet travel advice factsheet for veterinary professionals and caregivers has been developed by the WSAVA in collaboration with the World Veterinary Association.
The Dog and Cat Welfare During Transport factsheet provides step-by-step guidance for all stages of a journey, from pre-travel checklists to post-travel care.
Brachycephalic breeds or animals prone to travel-related anxiety are given special focus in the guide, which also provides links to IATA container regulation and WSAVA vaccination guidelines.
