Flying from the USA to Great Britain with an assistance dog:
Flying from the USA to Great Britain can be very confusing, so individuals with an assistance dog should pay very close attention to ALL the requirements for the airlines as well as Great Britain. If all the requirements are not met, you could be refused entry at any point through your journey.
Please allow plenty of time to complete all the vaccination and documentation requirements, and also contact the Heathrow Animal Reception Centre (if you are transiting through Heathrow).
