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. Thanks in advance, Norm |

The UK has some pretty draconian quarantine rules for dogs.
Essentially the dog must be quarantined for about 3 months. All this is due to an inordinate fear of rabies. There may have recently been some relaxation of these requirements.. Best is to check with a British consular office for the changes and current requirements. Most British commonwealth and former colonies (Caribbean) still require the full draconian isolation/quarantine. Most other countries (also check with each consular office) typicallly require an import process .... requirement of prior rabies vaccine within a specified time, certification of health, certain other vaccines, etc. In article . com, Norm wrote: We plan to leave next year for Bermuda, Azores, South Coast of Ireland and on to the UK.

Like I previously stated .... The UK requires draconian quarantine.
Pets that arrive on private boats and planes are subject to this horrendous quarantine ... and are excluded from the PETS (Pets Travel Scheme) protocols. http://www.defra.gov.uk/animalh/quar.../support-info/ routes.htm In article , Andy Repton wrote: http://www.defra.gov.uk/animalh/quarantine/index.htm |

Thanks to all of you for the replies. I guess we will have to leave
her home until we get across and have a family member bring her in by plane using the PETS scheme. Norm |
