We’re very grateful to each family who adopt one of our very loved rescue animals. When one gets adopted a space opens for another animal to have a chance for happiness and love.
Our dog and cat safety is very important to us. We’re looking for families abroad who will care about them as much as us, so they never face a butcher again.

If you are renting, you will need to have the knowledge and consent of your landlord.

The first step is for your animal to have a blood sample taken in Vietnam, which is sent to an approved laboratory in Europe.
The test makes sure your animal has developed sufficient rabies antibodies. Its called a Rabies Titer Test (RTT.)
Assuming your animal passes the test they can fly 60 days from the day the sample was taken. The price of the mandatory RTT is $250.
FDM offers flexible options for overseas pet transport! Flight volunteers escort dogs on existing flights, saving on cost. Manifest cargo provides a faster option. Price depends on size, airline, and destination. Contact us for a personalized quote!

Attention animal lovers looking to give a deserving dog a loving home! New regulations have been implemented for overseas rescue dogs entering the United States. This means an additional step for adopting a furry friend from Vietnam, but fear not – Fight Dog Meat (FDM) is here to help!
Here’s what you need to know: the US, Europe and UK require a mandatory “titer test” for all rescue dogs arriving from overseas. This blood test, performed at a specialized overseas laboratory, measures the presence and level of antibodies in the dog’s blood, indicating immunity to rabies.
The process might seem daunting, but don’t worry! Here at FDM, we understand the importance of streamlining the adoption process and ensuring the well-being of our rescued pups. The titer test costs approximately $250 USD. We want to make welcoming your new furry family member from Vietnam as smooth as possible.

FDM doesn’t charge an adoption fee. But we ask adopters to contribute a minimum of $800 USD toward mandatory CDC costs of $1,785 for their dog to enter USA.
FDM has to pay an additional $1,200 USD on top of the CDC fee for: Rabies Titer Test [RTT], export crate, excess luggage airline fee (with a flight volunteer), domestic flight to new home across USA and more.
The Rabies Titer Test (RTT) is a blood test that measures the level of rabies antibodies in an animal’s blood. This test is required for all dogs entering the United States, UK and Europe.
The cost of transportation varies depending on the size of the animal, the airline used, and the destination. There are two ways to fly animals abroad: with a flight volunteer or as manifest cargo.
Flight volunteers: Flight volunteers are people willing to bring an animal back to the USA with the animal traveling as excess luggage, to their already existing ticket. Flight volunteers help keep costs down for FDM to fly an animal.
Manifest cargo: Manifest cargo costs a lot more for the adopter, but your pet can travel quickly and fly at your convenience.
