Pet Move Spotlight: Four Pets Make the Most of Australian Quarantine
Take this case, for example. We recently moved four pets to Australia, a rabies-free country with pretty stringent pet import requirements. Dogs Enid, Ruby and Tilly and their cat cohort Lulu have to spend a few weeks in a quarantine facility, but the good news is that they're there together. Their owners also have the chance to check on them thanks to the facility's practice of regularly posting online pictures of the pets being boarded.

Cheers to Dog Walks for offering this innovation, as any pet owner surely understands what a difference pictures can make. Quarantine facilities are often located a fair distance away from home and have limited visiting hours, which makes it hard for people to spend a lot of time with their little critters. Being able to check in on your pets from your smartphone or laptop can make the separation period much easier, and we won't be surprised to see this trend expand.
Though the dogs' mandated departure dates are different due to varying rabies requirements, their owners decided to make some adjustments so that no one would be left all alone (awwww....). Check out the pictures of these world-traveling pets -- looks like they're having a pretty good time!

And this is Lulu
