Well, Brian, I just read through the whole thread again and I think you’ve gotten a pretty good overview of the process and the risks involved in this endeavor. I’ve only brought a dog from overseas once. The whole process was involved but went well and the dog did fine. However, within a year she developed cancer and was soon gone. If I’d known that was going to happen, would I have done it? No. But I didn’t know that and couldn’t know that. We do our due diligence on all the things that we can know and we accept up front all the things that we can’t. In the end if the dog checks all the boxes and you really want the it, go for it. He/she might turn out to be the dog of a lifetime. Or not.
All the best to you and come back and let us know what you decide.
