Hi,

Read on the boards that importing Rottweillers is forbidden. I'm moving back to Thailand from Canada and just can't stomach leaving my 11yr old Rottie behind.

Can someone clarify if I can bring my Rottweiller into Thailand?

Thx

There are enough Crouts in Thailand without you bringing in more

Every time you hear about someone being mauled, invariably it involves a pitbull or rottweiller. Only last week we had a toddler almost killed. I'll stick to sweet, safe dogs thanks.

Rottweilers are great dogs actually! They shouldn't be classified in the same category as Pittbulls. Don't believe the hype, don't become a sheep.....

I heard the same thing actually, the Thai authorities have restricted the importation of guard dogs...especially Rotts...The best thing would be to check with the agricultural departement in Bangkok or/and the airline which you will be using...The Don Muang airport also has a vetenarial service( Of course!!), you might want to check with them....In my personal experience it is on a case by case system..Considering your dog is 11 yrs old and more of a pet then a guard dog, they might allow it.

It'd be head of the soi. You wouldn't hear a squeak from the other soi dogs when he/she moves into the block...

I have a two legged Rotty at home that you are welcome to. Loyal,smart,house trained and will only bite when she has good reason...

Sorry have no info on the 4 legged species..

Why do men marry ugly women????

This is what I get from one of their consul websites:

Nothing specific on rottis but contact info is there. Suggest the Thai embassy in Ottawa (613) 722-4444 or the Vancouver Consulate (604) 687-1143 for more info.

cdnvic,

Thank you so much for the helpful information! As far as the research I have done so far, I've contacted Mr. Dickinson who was referred to me by the Toronto Thai Consulate. He is checking into this matter with Ottawa and so far tells me there is no restrictions on importing a Rottweiler.

I'll update when confirmed.
