A few vaccinations and worming, in a timely manner seems a reasonable hoop for a dog to jump through.

The requirement now, for Canadians to present a passport in order to visit the US is a hoop too. Annoying, but no real big deal.

However, the requirement that one now must give the address and zip code of where one will be staying when in the US, could be a bit of a poser. Guess overnight camp/parking in a Walmart parking lots is out, as well as leisurely drives down the coast, taking your own sweet time. Will they bring out the jack boots if we vary our route or fail to show up on time?

Makes travel and camping in Canada seem an even better alternative. Especially when we can jump in the car and tell the dogs we're off on an adventure! Lets see where we end up tonight! No spontaneous side trips in the US for us anymore; there are hoops and then there are road blocks ....pity.
