I dont know how many on here have an imported rescue dog (ours is from Romania).
Most of you may well be aware, but there is a major concern amongst vets now that dogs coming in from Eastern Europe could be infected with or be a carrier of this disease.
Blue Cross Brucellosis in Dogs
We have been advised that many vets will now not treat dogs from Eastern Europe unless they have been tested for this disease.
We have had to do this with our boy (cost just over £100) and thankfully he has been found to be negative. If we had not done this, the vet would not have treated him. If he had proved positive, the vet would not treat him.
Just really a heads-up to anyone who has brought in a dog from Eastern Europe that you may need to go through this process as well.
