The U.S. government has introduced new regulations requiring all dogs entering the country from abroad to be at least 6 months old and microchipped. These measures aim to prevent the spread of rabies and apply to dogs brought in by breeders, rescue groups, and pets traveling with their U.S. owners. Additionally, dogs that have been in countries where rabies is common must be vaccinated. The CDC has emphasized that these updated rules, effective from August 1, are crucial for keeping families and pets safe. Despite pleas from military personnel and federal employees for exemptions, these were denied due to concerns over falsified documents and the unchanged risk posed by the dogs' potential rabies status.
