LN, I would have to look at the current laws, but you used to be able to, though there would have been a quarantine period once they got here. OTOH, it's possible the airline might not allow it, because of the length of the flight.
Buckle up, kids! Daddy's puttin' the hammer down.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Also, the dog won't get it. It'll probably be someone like Hurley.
Nooooooooo! I will sacrifice Shannon's hotness if Hurley gets to live.

You can certainly ship dogs back and forth between the USA and Australia. I know people who have had it done.
There may be a quarantine period -- but that wouldn't happen 'til after the animal arrives.

Now tagless for your comfort.
OTOH, it's possible the airline might not allow it, because of the length of the flight.
Are cargo holds pressurized? Heated? I have a good friend that emigrated with her two dogs to Switzerland and they were crated the whole time for the flight. I think it was an 11 hour flight or something like that. An Australia-US flight might be a few hours longer, though. And there are restrictions about temperatures on the tarmac--if it's going to be extremely hot or cold at either the departure or the arrival destination, they won't take crated animals.

Even the quarantine period seems rare, unless the point of entry is Hawaii. [link]

It's about 14 hours from Sydney to San Francisco; I don't know if it would be significantly shorter to LA.

JJA has said in interviews that any character could be killed. So I have steeled myself for anyone we've already met. However, if Walt gets it, I will be pretty upset. I love me some Walt.

That's totally going to happen.

Yeah, of the sane people on the island I'd say that Kate is the most formidable, with Sayid running a close second.
I'd still like to see that "She weighs x pounds soaking wet!" comment come back to haunt Jack. Kate took down Sawyer, a guy who probably outweighs her by 30 lbs. or more, in about half a second.

Although something tells me not to fuck with Jin.
