Transporting an animal across state lines can be done safely by making sure to follow the guidelines set by the United States Department of Agriculture. The animal should be at least 8 weeks old and must be transported in a health certification paperwork. The paperwork must contain information on the birthdate, location, andhealth oftheanimal aswell as a statement that it was examined by a veterinarian within 30 days prior to transportation. Furthermore, the animal should be accompanied by an acclimation certificate, unless it is coming from a USDA approved breedership or exhibitorship. Finally, all state and local laws should be taken into consideration and consulted before transporting an animal across state lines.
