I haven't done it, but you should have both a rabies and health certificate from your vet. I think there's also a time limit on when they're acceptable, so be sure to check. Lots of folks don't get asked for them, but if you do get asked, and you don't have the appropriate certificates with the proper dates, they can refuse to let your dog though.

Actually, the requirements to enter Canada (which you'll be doing each way) are also important and may be more strict. It appears that a $30 fee is requred along with a personal inspection.
