I have been told that my dog needs to have his vaccinations done in order to travel to Oman. Now, I know that he has had all of them on the list done, except for Hepatitis... He may well have had this jab, but I cant tell because the label is all in code :)

Can anyone advise if Hepatitis is one of the things that the regular vaccs was for? He has 2 stickers in his passport/book and then another for rabies (so 3 stickers in total). Hope that makes sense (to someone in the know anyway :)).

Hi, tried calling but no answer. Is the code like DHP or something? If so then that is the distemper, canine HEP and Parvo vaccination. When we applied for the boys import permits the Ministry wouldn't accept the coded description on their records. So we had to get the UK vet to write each one exactly and then restamp before they would release the permit...... got here in the end.

check for this: DA2PP (the a stands for adenovirus, which protects against Hepatitis) this is the 5 in 1 vaccine for canines Oooooh, I think I remember seeing adenovirus! Hmmm, will check though as it might just be a case of wishing so hard you start believing!

We adopted him, and his vet is actually the DM vet. Hence the "no speak" :). The passport is at home (Im at work) but will check later and post.

Yep, I will do, its just that everything is bottlenecking (moving on Sun / Mon), cancelling visas, sorting out animals, DH flying to NZ for a week, so its difficult to get out to the vet, who is the DM vet in Mushrif, so not very sure Im going to be able to have a logical conversation on the phone since I dont speak arabic and they dont speak much english... :) Do you have a Fax or email? Scan vaccination card and send to your vet here and double check or call them, what are the letters?
