However only change is that dogs must be treated 1-5days before returning to UK.
So no change really if you are in Europe for more than 5 days ,just means that the Vets in France or wherever still get lots of money for doing even less work in this case just simply putting a worming tablet in your dogs mouth.
Examination, Frontline , 3 worning tablets, passport checked and signed 19 Euros Torre del Mar 2 weeks ago
last year examination and course of antibiotics (tooth abcess) 16 Euros
Me too which vet is that do you use ? My Spanish vet is in Caleta de Velez next to Torre and would charge a bit more than that.However they are not prepared to "adjust " the date and time in the passport so I stop in France.Would be interested to know which route you use to get back to UK in 48 hrs following treatment ?

Can just about beat that (albeit prob smaller dogs) : examination, administer worming, administer Frontline for 2x dogs Euro30, Bernkastel in Mosel valley (and Euro5 of that was VAT!).
Persuading my mutts to take their worming tablets is worth Euro30 any day....
The change to 5 days is great news...no need for the dash to the channel ports any more.
I've been reading it and reading it till my eyes go funny but still can't work it out.
Am I right in thinking that if you travel to a country outside the EU and Pet's Passport Scheme - ie Morocco - that after January 2012 you are able to enter UK without having to spend 6 months in Europe?

Assuming you are referring to current rules ie. up to Jan 2012 .It states clearly that all dogs entering the UK whether directly from an EU country or from outside the EU to the UK via an EU country must comply with current PETS requiements and the 6 month wait rule.
After Jan2012 of course all this changes. Providing the dog has an EU passport and has had positive blood test taken 30days following Rabies injection recorded in the passport before leaving the UK it can return to the UK without the otherwise required 3month wait. Note this blood test requirement will not be required for dogs travelling back and forth to the UK from EU listed countries.
