Hi, please take a look at this article.

It seems quite unclear if the list will definitely be expanded and what it actually means but it may be worth taking advice on bringing your German Shepherd to Dubai. I would recommend you speak to DKC (Dubai Kennels & Cattery). Really good reputation and will be able to help you with relocating your dog.
When you are here, you could check out My Second Home who have a great indoor dog park with a pool for the hot days of the summer months. It's also a really good place for you to meet other like-minded dog owners.
Best of luck!
Hello!
We are moving to Dubai in July/Aug (Yes, i know...hottest months lol). We have an 11 month old German Shepard and would really appreciate recommendations for professional/caring pet relocation companies.
Also please feel free to provide any advice for living in UAE with pets.
Thank you in advance! :)
