Our Tour of Europe (1 Viewer)

[decameron07]

We will shortly be starting our tour of Europe at the beginning of July.
My wife Tracey and our staffy Charlie are initially thinking of 6 months(hopefully longer). In our Autotrail Tracker which is just having solar panels fitted(is it worth having an inverter)

Taking the tunnel to Calais and off we go!!

We know it's the start at the busiest time to be going but we have both taken a Sabbatical.

Are there any countries that will not allow Staffordshire Bull terriers in and will he need to be muzzled?

Thinking of perhaps heading towards The Netherlands and down towards Slovenia/Croatia and when is the best time to leave to head to Spain for Winter.

Loose plans as we don't want to be tied down to anything in particular.

If you have any ideas do's and don'ts. Places to see, places to avoid.

Many thanks
Steve

I think it might be worth you looking at the DEFRA site as I'm sure there's info on other countries.
I know in some French towns there are signs about dogs being muzzled but brain fog has set in again and I can't remember how the signs were worded. If I can find any info I'll add it.
