Is there any quarantine issue when you send a dog to the middle east? I would hate to think that it would have to be kept away from its new home for any great period of time.

As for breeds, if your mom is at home during the day, a little poodle mix, Yorkshire Terrier, or something like that might be perfect. Good luck...I know that would make your mom very happy!!! And it would be great if the puppy could go back there with your brother. But you probably need to hurry, don't you? If it is a pound dog, I know you'll want to make sure there are no health issues before sending it overseas......
