Bringing a dog from the UK

Harry Redknapp
By Harry Redknapp

We have a fantastic little Staffordshire Bull terrier and have been told that it will not be allowed in Qatar as it is classed as a dangerous dog. The dog has been absolutely perfect with our two children aged 2 and 5 and we feel she is avery important part of our family. Is there any way in which we can bring her over. We do not have any family or friends in the UK who can take her. Is there anyone with knowledge of whether we can and how we can bring our dog with us?
Thankyou in advance.

Contact Qatar Pet Relocators as the pet relocation companies have permission to bring in prohibited breeds under certain circumstances. As long as the dog is over 1 year old, neutered & preferably micro-chipped then it won't be a problem at all.

Be pre-warned though that you will have people approaching you and asking to buy your dog for fighting!

Also be prepared to be told one thing and then once you get your dog here be told that you can't bring it into the country. This is par for the course in Qatar. One hand never knows what the other is doing.

qatarpetrelocators.com should be able to assist. While the breed is technically banned, it may be possible to get a special permit
