Moved a dog from Shanghai to SG last September, if that's any help.
Suggest checking with the airline for the appropriate government approved vet clinic in BJ to provide the health and export certificate.
(Note: There was only one approved in SH).
If the dog does not have a current rabies shot (again from a government approved vet clinic) get this at least 30 days before travel.
The dog will also need to get parasite treatment within 2 weeks of travel.
Make sure you have an import permit and an approved slot at the quarantine station here in SG.
If you haven't already done so, check the following AVA link:

I'll echo what kaseyma said. Checking with the airline is a good first step.
I've exported pets from China before (though not directly to SG). A lot of airlines operating in China don't handle pets, so it's a good idea to find out who does first. Finding a reputable logistics company will certainly smooth the whole process. Otherwise you might find yourself doing a lot of running around during your last week in Beijing.

NB: Thanks kaseyma. Sometimes it hard to be everywhere at once especially if you have a family as well!

Then post links of companies that you have "actually" used and not a company that you have an interest in (a new company as a matter of fact).
You think you are helping our readers, but in reality you are trying to help yourself. Big difference. Your only posts on this forum have been to only promote one company. You are like a one-trick pony. But don't feel too badly, as I included your company link on my links page about a month ago along with a number of others (equal opportunity) as I don't have any interests other than helping our readers.

The staff at the quarantine station are very good.
Always found them very attentive and helpful.
Did you happen to notice all the letters of appreciation?

yes, just got her released last week. I went to see her almost everyday. the staffs there are quite friendly and I just realised the facilities are well beyond others so called pet hotels when I tried to locate a possible boarding service for the future.
kaseyma,you know any good boarding service?

Unfortunately no.
Only time we used a pet hotel was about 9 years ago, up in Pasir Ris.
Paid for aircon, but when my wife went in upon our return she found that the dog was kept in a regular kennel without aircon.
Just came back last year (few years in China).
Nowadays, we leave the dog with friends when we travel.
