Money may dictate for you. ...Money may dictate for you. Great Danes are Great Dogs and Great family pets. But like so many Great things in our lives, they're not cheap and they're not easy. Look into the logisitics and the costs. Good luck

Thank you all for answers :) ...I was actualy considering to drive to Qatar with the dog. It will be a lot cheaper and it will be an amazing experience! I just thought that the great dane might have been on the 'ban-list' in Qatar? But I will try to contact the pet travel company to hear their say

How would you drive here? ...How would you drive here? You, as a female, are not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia. I don't know where you're coming from but if, for example, you're coming from UAE - you would need the proper documents issued by the UAE authorities/vets, probably documents allowing you to import/transit an animal via Saudi (if a man is doing the driving and if you are married to him, his sister, or his daughter or his mother) and then more docs to allow the dog to enter Qatar.
If you're coming from further afield and have more countries to pass through, it gets even more complicated on the document side. I suspect nearly all of these countries would require a vet inspection by their vet before allowing the dog entry/transit through their country

Doha is not the best place ...Doha is not the best place for dogs. If you must bring you pet then do so, but be aware of the environment and culture you are bringing him.
heleneg said
I will be coming from Denmark ...And I will of course make sure that the dog is fully vaccinated and have all it's documents in order - and that goes for every country we will transit.
Also, I would have my stepfather come and pick me up in Saudi, as women are not allowed to drive there.
When I was last in Doha, I was told that bringing a Great Dane was illegal and impossible, but now I see that they are only restricted, so I guess I have all my questions answered.
Luckily my family lives in a big house with a nice garden with the lagoona in the backyard, so apart from the heat, the dog wouldn't get it any better. :)

heleneg ...Great Danes are not banned in Qatar and big dogs have always been allowed into Qatar. Whoever you are getting your info from is feeding you false information.
Please go to www.qatarpetrelocato... for info and mail contact/-a-t-/qatarpetrelocators.com for assistance with brining your animal.
Doha is not a bad place for pets. Its the same the world over. Just because Qatar is a small country, it seems like we are over run with animals.
Just remember that when taking your pet from Qatar - Europe (if thats where you go to next) requires added documentation.
