Deauville Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 We need another dog and will soon be on the look-out for one from a refuge but we are also planning a winter campervan trip to southern Spain and Morocco. Now I'm not sure if this is a French or Spanish issue (I suspect it is both) but we want to find out about the rules regarding taking a dog on a trip of that sort and then returning to France. Does anyone have any ideas as to whether it is permissible to actually take (or rather bring back) a dog under these circumstances and if so what extra requirements, apart from the pet passport, there are?

Audois Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Certainly possible as I've seen plenty in French campers & at the airport flying home as pooches ... What exactly needs to be done I'm not sure; the rules might have tightened up in the last year or two since a child in the Bordeaux area was mauled by a dog that came back from Morocco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Provided you have the EU passport up to date for your dog there will be no restrictions on going or coming back to Spain from Maroc. Going they will not care less and even returning to Spain you should encounter little interest. I have taken my dogs to Maroc before without problems. They make great guardians in a place where you need them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deauville Posted September 11, 2007 Author Share Posted September 11, 2007 Logan thanks - did they need to be treated in the same way as when returning to UK? Visit to the vet within 48hrs for tick shot etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 No. Those rules apply to entering the UK. Honestly you will not experience any problems returning to Spain from Maroc. However if you admit the dog has been to Maroc on returning to UK it will likely be a problem. However I would check that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
