Important information for owners residing on USMC installations
PET TIP- A common tree located in Okinawa is very poisonous to dogs. The tree is a cycad tree commonly known as a Sago palm and looks like a small palm tree with a large cone in the center. The cone produces white nuts covered in a bright orange shell. These seeds are highly toxic. They cause neurologic signs and have a high fatality rate. Please keep these seeds away from your pets!
The Japan District Veterinary Command has information
about the requirements for the importation of pets into Okinawa. Please go to the following website to get the forms that you will
need to bring your pets. http://www.usarj.army.mil/organization/vet/
This will help alleviate any discrepancies that might arise in the near
future.
If there are any questions to this you can email okinawavet@kadena.af.mil and we can help you.
