We go to the Port Renfrew area. Four camping places in the area. We are going to Oregon, Nehalem Bay State park,right on the ocean,for a week in Sept. It's so expensive to get off the island.]]> Fri, 09 Aug 2013 19:22:37 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3362&PID=36557#36557 border crossing/pets/paperwork : Originally posted by bc matellZag,... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3362&PID=36556#36556 Author: Zag

Home for me is Victoria so I have done most of my camping this summer on the South part of the island.

I have started a map showing where we have taken her so far. I will post it a little bit later when I am using my laptop.]]> Fri, 09 Aug 2013 19:04:05 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3362&PID=36556#36556 border crossing/pets/paperwork : Zag, where on van island.. https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3362&PID=36555#36555 Author: bc matell

You can find Ferry schedules and fares at bcferrys.ca Check with US border for info on pets. Sometimes they ask other times no. Best to be safe with shots up to date,for pets,not humans,lol
Have fun

3DogPod (or anyone). If you have any questions about Vancouver Island I've been a local resident for 20+ years and am happy to answer any questions.
If you are okay with dry camping, our provincial camp sites are pretty nice (and affordable) and there is a great site for booking on-line. https://secure.camis.com/Discovercamping/
My first outing was to China Beach and is an amazing spot with access to some great beaches and hikes.

Don't forget your own "papers" along with the dogs.  You won't be getting back in to the good ole' USA without current passports!]]> Wed, 03 Apr 2013 11:59:36 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3362&PID=31900#31900 border crossing/pets/paperwork : Woohoo!

Woohoo!  The pups are going to take a ferry ( haven't decided which one yet, had no idea there were so many choices ) and run on a beach this summer ... Life is good ...

Thanks for the info...

It's been some time since I've taken the ferries to Vancouver Island, so I can't help you with the prices. But you have a few choices on which ferry route you take. The BC ferries leaving just south of Vancouver at Tsawassen is a very enjoyable trip through the channel islands. The views are great and once we were on a ferry that had to be stopped to let a pod of killer whales pass--breath taking! The WSDOT ferry run from Pt. Angeles to Victoria is pretty bland and sometimes a little rough. I got a little seasick once. If you're coming up the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State, the Pt. Angeles run is the most logical choice. A third route choice, like Tsawassen, close to the I5 corridor leaves from Anacortes and winds through the San Juan Islands. This is another nice trip. Victoria is a wonderful city to visit, with lots of stuff to  see and do. We've only camped at commercial R/V parks in Victoria, and haven't yet done any of the wilderness parks on Vancouver Island.  ]]> Tue, 02 Apr 2013 13:01:47 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3362&PID=31867#31867 border crossing/pets/paperwork : Here ya go:Dogs and Cats For... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3362&PID=31862#31862 Author: TerryM

Here ya go:

Dogs and Cats

For a dog or cat 12 weeks or older, you must have a signed health certificate from a licensed veterinarian clearly describing the animal and declaring that it is healthy and currently vaccinated against rabies.  To enter the U.S. the shot must have been given at least a full month before your trip and the  certificate should include the expiration date of the shot. If the date is not included, the shot must be refreshed every year for the United States, and every 36 months for Canada.   Canada does require the 30 day lead time – the shot qualifies from the moment it is given.

So I guess you have to have the above for each pet.

Terry

What a long hibernation this country has had Winter 2012/ Spring 2013 ... To you all on the EAst Coast and Midwest -  hope the snow & winds & ice have finally ended  :)

We've been catching up on posts from the last 4-5 months, and I must say that the BC'ers and those that have traveled north across the border have peaked our interest ...  So... a couple of questions for those travelers  that have gone before us :  does the rpod need to have different or more insurance paperwork because it will be traveling 'international' ... How expensive are the ferries to get across to Vancouver Island... And finally, what kind of health papers do the 3 pups need... 

Thanks, all
