Buffalo, NY → Fort Erie, ON
Door-to-door pet transportation from Buffalo to Fort Erie. Dedicated vehicle, your pets only, handled by Lesli Rose of Dreamer's Bliss Pet Transportation.
About this route
The western New York gateway, and the counterpart to Detroit for buyers in the Golden Horseshoe. A puppy flown into Buffalo Niagara or Niagara Falls NY gets met, cleared, and taken across the Peace Bridge into Ontario. The price covers the crossing and a handoff rather than onward delivery, and it is a minimum rather than a flat rate, so tell us the pickup point and the destination and we will confirm the number before anyone commits.

What you'll need
- ✓ Under 8 months, travelling unaccompanied: health certificate, with the border reached within 72 hours of the examination. The clock runs forward from the exam, and this is the most common reason a crossing fails. A puppy riding with its owner needs rabies proof only.
- ✓ 8 months and older: no health certificate required at all. Rabies alone covers it.
- ✓ Rabies vaccination certificate from 12 weeks of age
- ✓ Sale receipt, if the pet was newly purchased, showing the date, a description, the words "non breeding", and the price paid. GST is payable on that value.
- ✓ CFIA import paperwork coordinated via our broker
Canada sets no minimum age to enter and no import quarantine. The 6-month minimum and the CDC form are US entry rules and do not apply in this direction. Full guide for US breeders.
- ✓ Running Red customs broker ($150 CAD + HST on animal value)
