Taking our Dog Cruising on a Sailboat in the Caribbean - what we need to do.

Rules & Regulations begin at 10:00.

Should you bring your dog along to the Caribbean? We talk about life aboard with a dog, regulations, and poop. It can be a pain in the *ss, but for us, we wouldn’t do it without our dog Sugar. We do a country by country pet import breakdown on which are easy, which are challenging, and which are hard.
