Description:

Two new breeds have been added to the list of dangerous dog breeds not accepted for travel as animals in the cargo hold (AVIH)

Scope:

Animals in Hold (AVIH) service

Date of Implementation:

Immediate

Considerations: 

The two new breeds not accepted for transportation as AVIH are:

• American Akita
• Italian Cane Corso (dangerous brachycephalic breed)

In addition, since certain breeds are known under different names despite being the same breed, alternate names have been included wherever  necessary:

• American Bully
• American Bulldog
• Anatolian Shepherd (Karabash)
• Presa Canario (Dogo Canario)
• Tosa Inu (Japanese Fighting Dog)

All previously confirmed services for the new breeds added will be honored, although the use of a muzzle will be mandatory.
All other restrictions regarding this service remain unchanged.

Exception:

NA
