Thanks Mrs Tina for your reply.
I will fly from Aust to Guangzhou and the dog will clear Customs there and be released the same day. I know there is no direct flight to Yangshuo, I would fly to Guilin then get a truck or someting to Yangshuo. Maybe i need a truck from Guangzhou to yangshuo and travel all the way by road. The train is an option only if I have a full cabin to myself as the dog is big and will bite. I will have the right paperwork as I need it to clear Customs at the Guangzhou airport. Would hiring a truck or van be the best option rather than by train?
I prefer not to fly to Guilin from Guangzhou because after I arrive in Guilin I will still need to get to Yangshuo.
Do you know the cost to hire a van and driver from Guangzhou to Yangshuo?

Thanks
