Andy - which Vet did you use?

Not sure which vet you mean, but his regular vet is part of the Medivet franchise which has branches all over the place.


The vet we used before we came home was in Goes, Zeeland. Only any use if you're gonna be anywhere near Middleburg in the Netherlands. If you feel it would be of use I will post up a link.

What I meant was - where were you when you visited the Vet.

Any links may help someone sometime if you could post them.

 

[Andy H]

We were staying at Wolphaartsdijk in Zeeland. The vet was based in nearby Goes, although they have a couple of branches in other parts of Zeeland. We went on the Tuesday and returned to UK on the Thursday.

Should it be of any use to anyone in the future here is the link;

Needless to say, it's the Netherlands, so excellent English spoken, very friendly as well.

I go this recently and the passport was £63 with the worming was just over £100 and the gave me the tapeworm tablet for the return journey. Found a nice vet in Denmark £24 to watch and sign.

Something doesn't seem right about that. You don't need any worming treatment administered in this country before you go. If you're saying he charged you £37 for a tablet to take with you then that's scandalous.

£63 for the passport is on the high side as well even if it did include the rabies jab.

We used this English speaking vets in Vicenza Italy. We phoned ahead and got an appointment a few hours later. €25 charge.

Sorry I meant Passport and Rabies (3 year) and the tapeworm tablet (worming was done as standard). I think the £63 was a good price just for the passport as ringing around most wanted over £100 alone just for for the passport so getting it just over £100 all in together I think is an ok price. Some may have gone cheaper but then taking the time and fuel into consideration to get to some places I don't mind paying what I think is a fair price.

£63 is OK I suppose but above average for the rabies jab and passport. £40 - £50 is good.

Worming treatment administered by a vet in the UK is simply not required for anything so if the vet has told it is then he's turning you over.

A tapeworm tablet to take with you should be a couple of quid, perhaps a fiver if the vet's expensive.

I just can't work out what the extra £37 was for.

Not sure where you've found a vet that sells you the tapework tablet cheaply Nicknic, our experience in buying them from a UK vet is about £5 each for our little ones and £7 for our big monster, even at a foreign vet they're about the same ... this time I bought mine on-line to take with me to reduce the cost.

Droncet from my vet are about £3 each

My main point though is what the hell has the OP's vet charged the extra £37 for?

I took my chihuahua to a vet 350 miles before the port. Wouldn't use my worming tabs, had prescription and non prescription.
Gave her a jab instead. She had no tummy problems which she would have had with the tablet.
€30 for consultation and €7 for jab.
He was very thorough, checking my return dates and her passport.
Bit dear, but would Deffo use him again.
