Anyone who has seen New Zealand’s stunning mountains or idyllic coastline will not be surprised to hear that it is still one of the most popular destinations for expats. Pet lovers planning to travel or relocate there can also rejoice! There are more companion animals living in New Zealand than there are humans! Nearly a third of households have a dog, so it's not surprising to learn that Kiwi cities are pretty canine-friendly.
Pets in New Zealand are considered to be an extension of the family. Leashes and picking up after your pet in public is mandated and the rules are stringently enforced, resulting in heavy fines if not followed. It’s common in NZ to find cafés, etc., where they have water bowls outside for your dogs and plenty of space for them to curl up while you have a drink or a bite.
Bringing your pets to New Zealand is a lengthy process, as they have some of the most rigorous rules for importing animals.
