Animal Health Certificates in Ukiah

Trusted Large Animal Veterinarian for Potter Valley & Redwood Valley

Traveling with your animal require careful planning. If your trip involves interstate travel, it is important to check the destination state’s health certificate requirements. Most states require an up-to-date Certificate of Veterinary Inspection in order to bring an animal across state lines. Call Dr. Rich Brazil, DVM if you are traveling to a state that requires this.

​

Do I Need to Schedule a Health Inspection Before Transporting My Animal?

State requirements vary depending on factors such as:

 

• Species

• Age

• Destination

 

The majority of states call for a veterinarian certification indicating that the animal is healthy to travel and free of any signs of communicable diseases. Many states also require proof that the animal’s vaccinations are current in order for a certificate to be issued. Call our Ukiah large animal veterinarian for an appointment or a consultation.
