I'm asking this question on behalf of a friend who is toying with the idea of visiting Morocco this winter with her 2 dogs. Both dogs have pet passports and are regular travellers into Europe. It seems that the information regarding entry back into Spain is a little sketchy and she is concerned that non compliance may cause issues i.e. quarantine. I've had some great info back from Sandra @Armytwowheels that I've passed on, but it seems that the more you delve into it, the murkier it becomes.
My friends vet has been in touch with DEFRA and the advice is that both dogs would need re-vaccinatinting with the rabies jab, even though one is not due yet, followed by blood tests 30 days later to prove that the vaccination has worked. If it hasn't, then it all has to be repeated and we're talking £150 per dog initially as long as the jab is ok!
The vet also says that they may have to pay charges to the Moroccan Embassy and that they should also check with the Spanish Embassy to see if there's any further requirement to get back into Spain.
I know there are quite a few Funsters who make this trip with their dogs, so any comments would be greatly appreciated.
