Do the Obamas' dogs have to go through quarantine - EightFingers - 12-14-2015
Seeing the news tonight it looks like they just got of the plane and started running around.
So, are the first dogs exempt?

They did have to go through in the past:

As long as they're vaccinated and their rabies antibody titers are checked, they can probably go right through.

We have friends that bring their dog from Germany every year. It seems like if the rules are followed it isn't terribly difficult.

I believe germany to be on the list of rabies free countries - importation or exportation of a dog is no problem.

What in The Sam Hell are you babbling about now? You mean how the Bishop Estate owns millions of acres? That kind of birthright? Or how the Shipman children stand to inherit huge tracts of land? Or the Lyman people and their many properties?
Geez, all those names look pretty British to me ( Hey TomK, maybe you know what Ted is getting at? ).

Is Ted hijacking this topic?
Assume the best and ask questions.

How does the State of Hawaii handle dogs that are on board an aircraft offering "emotional support" to arriving passengers? These people claim that emotionally they simply cannot be separated from their dogs.

I am under the impression that all working dogs, as well as medically needed dogs are subject to the same import rules.

Service dogs are subject to the same rules as other animals arriving in Hawaii:

It shouldn't be too difficult for the President of the United States to get his dogs to qualify for the HDOA requirements.
As pt noted above, he's got people. With the thousands of professionals he delegates to take on ISIS, the federal budget, etc, it shouldn't be difficult to find someone qualified to look after the dogs. And as we all know, a position in the federal government requires making sure the paperwork is in order. Especially if you enter the White House on a regular basis. Otherwise, the dog nanny's gonna be out of a job, left to fend for himself on the runway at Hickam, and stuck with his new Hawaiian nickname, "Kimo TMT."
