They’ve been serving out their last 30 day quarantine before starting their journey last Thursday. Then went from DFW to Frankfurt Germany, then to Tokyo, then Okinawa. They got here Sunday evening. They were very emotional and kept me up most of the evening. I took them to a military vet to get clearance, then to the ocean, then to the dog park. The passed out in my car.

I can't imagine the headaches of a trans-oceanic move. Glad your pups made it safe and sound.

That’s why you pay someone to do it for you. It was money well spent. It was about $2k per pet which included the flights, vet health checks in Germany, a person to handle to agriculture/animal import in Tokyo and ground transportation to my new house in Okinawa
 
Is there nobody in Japan trying to make Japan great again by keeping immigrants out??

For the record, "make any country great again", is an old saying. Not original at all.

Glad to hear the move has been going smoothly and your pets are in their new home.
 
Glad the dogs made it home to you safely. I am sure that you and they, are much happier now !

No, just some misc posts. I bough a GoPro 12 that I planned to vlog with but it’s been rainy season so I haven’t captured much footage. I’d expect more to flow

Badass, looking forward to it, is this forum the best place or IG or somewhere else?

I just love this move and would love to follow along virtually!
 
Congrats. I went through something a bit similar Canada to USA. Very stressful. Glad everyone is OK.
 
One of my dogs was throwing up all night. Took him to a Japanese veterinarian for the first time. Office visit,CBC blood panel, inflammation blood panel, stool sample, an injection and oral meds x 2 came out to 12000 yen = $75
