Turkey Trip Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I am in Western Australia and have looked at previous discussions and am still not sure which which import agent would be the best to use for importing frozen semen from the USA. Have found the websites for both Cryogenes and Sires On Ice but they lack enough "nitty-gritty" detail for a first-time numpty and any feed-back from breeders who have actually imported canine FS from the USA would be of most interest please. Ta muchly if you can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espinay2 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) I use Cryogenes and have found them great to deal with and providing a good service walking the shipment through customs etc. When you contact them they will send out info and a flow chart of what needs to be done etc (it varies from country to country so they can't put everything on the website). In the US Cryogenes coordinates with and will put you in touch with the International Canine Semen Bank (ICSB) in Grass Valley California who will help coordinate the process that end with whoever is doing the collection (they can help you locate/recommend someone too if the breeder doesnt know where to go/doesnt have a preference on who will collect). They will send out a questionnaire to you for you and the breeder to complete and help you coordinate it all that end. I have found them very good to deal with too.

Turkey Trip Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) e_2 For your info and very helpful insight into the process. Have contacted Cryogenes and already had a response, now have a lot of reading to do and maybe something to look forward to. :) Edited January 12, 2012 by Turkey Trip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
