Thanks - so how would I go about getting the latest issue of their book (we're going to have so many books with your's, the overland one, guidebooks and now...
Leah, I would recommend Amazon for the Churches book. They don't sell it direct I don't think, and the stores often run a little more expensive. The dog will...
Thanks, I looked at Amazon - is the 2005 the newest version? Also, what kind of meds did you end up getting for Brindle for her tummy? And paperwork - last...
I agree that now you just need proof that your dog is current with her rabies shots. Don't forget to allow enough time for her to return to the US while it is...

Hi Thankyou, it was great to hear from someone else going to Central America. We have for the last five years spent our winters in Mexico, down the east coast,...

Please refer to what the authors of this site say, don't worry about the certs getting out of date. We only were asked for it once in Guatemala, other...
You don't need a USDA form for every country. In fact you don't actually need one at all. The one we used on our first trip had dozens of stamps and franks on...

Thank you to George, Harriet and Hank(?) for answering my questions - I really appreciate it. I have heard that Honduras can be difficult - making you take...
Leah, It was the Honduran consulate that charged us $80.00 and then the clerk at the border said it didn't make any difference and charged us another fee. If...
