Antananarivo - Post Report Question and Answers

Are qualified veterinarians and/or good kennel services available? Do animals need to be quarantined upon entry to the country? Are there other considerations regarding pets that are particular to this country?

Yes, there are a couple of vets here who frequently work with expats so they understand the import and export rules. There is also a great kennel service/trainer called XK9. There are a lot of stray dogs here, so if you are looking for a dog, come here and take your pick! They are generally not aggressive, but can cause problems when walking your pets near them. - Apr 2025
