Do I need certain paperwork to bring a dog into North Dakota?

[fish4cats]

My buddy insists that I need certain paperwork to bring my dog into North Dakota this weekend for duck hunting. I cant find anything in the regs or online about it other then the Dept of agriculture that states i need paperwork if we are there for more than 30 days.

Anyone know the answer? Thanks in advance.

im pretty sure that you dont, my uncle hunts there about 8 times a year and never had any issues. If you checked the regs you're good to go I think

You do need to have all up to date vaccinations and the proper paperwork to document it. Sure many dont, but if you want to be in check with everything, you do need to carry it.

They say you should have recent records of all shots. Current ones. Never have been checked, but dont mess up your trip just in case you get checked. I have mine in a folder in the truck.

Just stop by your vet's office and ask for your dogs shot records. They will print it out and then the vet will sign it. Then throw it in your glove box at have a great time.

Been hunting with dogs for a lot of years in MN, IA, SD, & ND. Never have been asked for my paperwork yet when checked by the game warden. You don't want to not have if ever you do need it though.

At one time the NoDak AG department required a "Health Certificate" for each dog brought into the state. Not sure if that rule is still on the books or not. I asked a warden about it and he said they were not enforcing it. Have never had the certificate and have never been asked for it.

You could probably have your vet fax it to you as well. We have had ours fax it directly to different kennels our lab was going to stay at.

Have fun!!

I did look this up under the NoDak Ag dept HSOforum and it said that any dog that is to be brought into the state for more than 30 days needs a Health Cert..
