Moving to Lusaka. Any info welcome!!!!

Hi. I will soon be moving to Lusaka with my husband. We will be bringing 2 dogs and a cat with us. Would appreciate any info with regard to the relocation, vets,boarding and grooming facilities etc. Are there plenty of pet owners there? Is there somewhere to meet and socialise the dogs.

Thanks in advance.

Ps: Please feel free to message me if your already there with your animals. Would love to meet other dog owners when I arrive. :)

Hi am Zambian. In the past one month the government has put in place laws in line wth dogs. Once in Zambia register your dog wth local authority. Vets are available in the show grounds about 20kilo metres from airport and 5 KS from town centre. Am sure the vet in the show grounds has info on socialising of dog owners. U can email me formore on Lusaka

hello! Vets in Zambia! I will recommend my vet - she is very good. Her name is Dr E. Oparaocha and she owns the "Show grounds Veterinary Clinic" in the show grounds opposite the Manda Hill Shopping center.  Contact details:

She is very good. I have 5 dogs and we do everything there- from vaccines to grooming and my dogs absolutely love it. You will also find advertisements and notices on the boards of the vet for things like dog owners who want to meet up, or pet trainers, etc. or even if you have puppies or kittens you will want to sale, its good to advertise there.

Thanks for your replies. Its sounds a very pet friendly place. I look forward to arriving.
