Dog Flu Treatment

Question by Mr. Yag Ru: Dog sneezing after moving?
Noticed that my poodle had a crazy sneeze yesterday. I moved unto a new apartment unit. I believe the new fresh smell of paint is bothering her. Other than opening windows to wipe out that smell what else can I do?

She is eating regular, drinking water, and using the bathroom. I have her at work with me now while my place air out.

Any suggestions???

It is possible there is mold or mildew that your dog can smell that you cannot smell. But sometimes dogs sneeze out of anxiety. Make sure that you are keeping her feeling calm and safe. You should definitely air out your new place for a while, and maybe you can plug in a de-humidifier to help her.

Question by Jessica: How does moving pets overseas work?
I don’t envisage living in Australia my whole life, but more importantly I don’t envisage ever leaving any of my pets. I expect specifically my dog and bird (cockatiel) to live at least another 10-15 years, so I just thought I’d ask, in general, how it works moving pets overseas.

I know they have to go into some kind of “quarantine”, what does that actually mean? Do they take your dog away from you or something? Or is it more like, he can’t leave the house for a while before you leave or something?

For a long plane journey, how are dogs and birds transported? Are they sedated or anything? Is that dangerous, especially for birds?

Is it dangerous to move a small bird like a cockatiel? Also, what about that bird flu thing, if they had it in a country, would you be allowed to bring the bird back to Australia again?

Quarantine is a government-run process in which your animal is basically put in a shelter of types, and sits there for a few weeks to a few months, depending on the animal’s type and the country it came from.

You can visit your pet if you like, but you cannot take it home until the quarantine is up. Workers there will feed and water the animal for you, and give it a bit of exercise.

For plane transportation, it all depends.

Some people worry that their pet won’t be able to take the flight well, so they have a veterinarian sedate them prior to the journey. Usually the animals are put in the lower part of the plane, along with the baggage/luggage. Sometimes you can have a pet as carry on, but it is hard to reserve such a seat and the animal’s crate and size must meet certain regulations.
