i too am moving to singapore soon (two months...can't wait!) with my wife and two dogs, from doha, qatar. our dogs came to doha with us from australia.
re - the heat etc...it gets very hot here in doha (55 deg C plus, very high humidity)...not a problem for our dogs as they stay inside in aircon most of the time, and are extremely innactive. however, we have friends here with dogs ranging from small dogs like ours, to labradors, golden retrievers etc...all seem to do OK in the heat...obviously not much walking is done during the daytime!
re - quarantine,relocation etc...there are some very good links on this site. also, look into professional pet relocators (at your country of departure and in Singapore)...they are a good help...we are using 'Singapore Pet Movers' for the singapore end. can't vouch for them yet, but fingers crossed.
re - cost etc...just close your eyes, get out your credit card, and do it! if its worth it its worth it. i just wish our dogs got frequent flier miles!!!!
good luck with your (possible?) dog shifts gomez and mrs T...i know the stress!!! i'm sure i don't need to tell you this, but just keep your dogs welfare as top priority and you'll make the right decision re moving them etc.
by the way, to whom it may concern, this website and forum is fantastic...a brilliant resource.
we are all looking forward to life in singapore!!
