RE: Traveling with dogs: Warning: Screwworm fears could result in you getting our entry denied

in TravelFeed • 21 days ago

I'm from the UK and recently travelled to France and neighbouring countries with a friend and her dog. She had to get a health certificate for the dog before we left, and on the way back, we had to visit a vet so the dog could be given a worming tablet. It was all quite expensive, but you do have to make sure everything is in order when travelling with pets.

Sort:  

I think that the responsibility should lie on the person who is carrying the pet. I don't think that fluffy the household miniature poodle is the one that ends up spreading horrible livestock diseases but I suppose they have to cover all of their bases.

I wouldn't trust owners to self regulate.
