Default Cruising to Europe with a Pet

In article . com,
says...


We plan to leave next year for Bermuda, Azores, South Coast of Ireland
and on to the UK. We have a small dog that cruises with us. Has
anyone had any experience with bringing a dog into Europe this way?
What US Preps should we take? I can guess at the documents we would
need, but if anyone has a list, that would be helpful.


You won't have much of a problem on the Continent. We took our dog to
Austria several times (going up the Danube are you?) But forget about
the British Isles. Quarantine is six months. There has been talk of
easing the restrictions but not much has come of it. Major problem is a
vested industry in kennels that hold the animals for the quarantine
period at considerable cost to you and profit to them.
