What a handsome photo! Cooper's mom told me that they had such a blast together. They were real buddies and Cooper missed Basil so much. He was upset for a week and would always look for Basil.
Cooper's cousin J loved Basil too. He is at a great age for a dog like Basil.
We felt guilty that we didn't bring Basil us on our getaway, but it worked out well. Basil had a much better time at Cooper's house instead of a long, hot car ride where he would spend his day at a strange hotel.
We read something interesting about pitbulls being illegal in Toronto and that any dog with bull dog traits (even though they are a different breed) would be considered illegal because based on their traits they can fall into the "pitbull category".
For information about visiting Canada with a pet, go to their website.
Have you ever traveled out of the country with your pets? What provisions do you have to make regarding going through customs? What other things do you have to think about when traveling far from home with your pet?

Looks like you had a great time Basil, did you even notice mom & dad were gone? Mom is into be over-prepared has a whole container of "emergency supplies" (benadryl, ear & eye ointments, antibiotics, bandages you name it - a mobile veterinary office almost!) for when we travel in Big Earl. We always have a recent health certificate on board for all us pups, but have never been asked to show it yet. Heard that you need a specific form filled out by your vet, ad must have an exam within 10 days of crossing the border into Canada. Interesting to hear about Toronto's BSL - will have to look into that. It's embarrassing, but mom always tells people at hotels & the like that I'm a pug (they think that half the time anyways) so that no one gets worried about my "bullyness"!
