๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿพ IMPORTANT PET TRAVEL UPDATE ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿšจ

If you are traveling from the United States into Mexico through the **Lukeville Port of Entry** and plan to bring your dog, please be aware of the current screwworm requirements.

Due to the ongoing screwworm situation in Mexico, travelers bringing dogs across the border are being required to have **screwworm certification** for their pet. Without the required certification, your dog may **not be permitted to cross into Mexico**.

๐Ÿ“ This information applies to travelers crossing through the **Lukeville Port of Entry** and heading toward Rocky Point (Puerto Peรฑasco) and surrounding areas.

We know there has been a lot of confusion surrounding this requirement, so we wanted to share this information with our travelers so you can be prepared before making the trip.

โš ๏ธ Please make sure you have the proper documentation for your pet before heading to the border. Requirements can change, so we recommend confirming the current requirements with the appropriate border authorities before traveling.

We are simply sharing this information to help keep our community informed. We do not make or enforce these regulations.

Safe travels, everyone! ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ๐Ÿพ

And as always, thank you for stopping by Why Not Travel Center!โค๏ธ

๐Ÿพ Dog food has arrived at The Why Not Travel Store! ๐Ÿพ

Another pallet of dog food is here and ready for pickup for travelers heading to Rocky Point! โค๏ธ

If you're making the trip across the border, we'd be so grateful if you could take **one bag** of dog food with you and drop it off at **Barb's Dog Rescue**. Since only one bag can be taken across the border per traveler, every single person who helps makes a meaningful difference.

One trip. One bag. A whole lot of happy tails. ๐Ÿถโค๏ธ

Thank you to everyone who continues to support Barb's Dog Rescue and our amazing community of travelers. Your kindness helps keep the rescue dogs fed and cared for.

๐Ÿ“Stop by The Why Not Travel Store before your trip to pick up a bag for the rescue.
