Although I am a regular traveller to Europe with the Dog, have not been over for two years. Leaving on the 7th July now doing all the pre checks, then slight problem. Noticed dog rabies jab has expired. Quick check on web and clearly said new regs since 2012 cannot enter UK until 21 days after jab. No problem I thinks as we are away for five weeks. Go to Vet. Vet say you got problem, he explains that even going into France you have to wait 21 days. What I say thats mad. In the past never had dog checked on way out of UK. It appears all changed in 2012. So my question to any travellers who have taken dog through Dover recently, do they check the dog passport on leaving UK. I just can't see the problem anybody can live in Portugal drive through Spain, France to Germany and they will never need to show Pet passport or probably never have one.
