Rabies jabs ; overlapping

Just get 3 year rabies anywhere in the eu before you return. Get done same time as wormer.
Ours has a spanish passport. We never had any problems with no sticker over wormer. Dog is now 6 years old and been a few times a year to eu.

Yea she has Spanish passport. Never had the problem before I 13 years but she was very certain wormer entry had to have sticker on it .
Didn't argue , she was letting me through .
Jo's link nailed it . Only for rabies entry
 
Speaking of worming ?
Heading for Calais , possibly Dieppe, any recommendations for vets ?
 
La Mailleray sur Seine has a nice aire on the river and a two minute walk to a vet.

Montreuil sur mer has a vet just round the corner from the aire.

Neufchatel en Bray has a vet but it's a bit of a walk from the aire. That said, I think in terms of what our old boy can do, it might be fine for your dog. The aire is very good though

If you are leaving from Dieppe, the vet at Honfleur is close to the aire, but pricey.

Thanks for all of the above
 
I use the vet in Neufchatel-en-Bray and it’s a pleasant walk from the aire. But I generally book in advance and drive to it before heading off to the aire.
 
Headed for La Mailleray but review from day before said it was shut due to flooding.
Ended up in Yvetot . Vet there was fine but didn't know rabies entry had to have transparent label on it .
She used sellotape.
All good at ferry
 
That's surprising about La Mailleray, it's been mainly dry for weeks.

Is there somewhere near the vet to stop over at Yvetot?

Was going there on the 13th , review said it was flooded on the 12th .
There is an aire at Yvetot not far from vets
Wouldn't really recommend Yvetot, aire is good though
 
We are in Honfleur, we come back on Wednesday next week so because of Easter and the weekend, our worming has to be on the Tuesday morning. And we wanted somewhere to stay put, and where we could have plenty to occupy us over the Easter weekend. The aire is, as ever, busy and it's not a nice aire at all; but we are on, and we've managed to get an electric hook up, so it'll do.

Don't actually mind Honfleur aire , you know it's always going to be busy .
Like a giant version of St Jean de Luz aire
 
We went on the little section that's on the left as you drive in from the bridge and we had some travellers as neighbours behind us, on the rough ground outside the aire. Which isn't a problem in itself but then we realised they were hooked into the electricity bollards, and that's not right.

Anyway we've moved on to the main part of the aire now.

Nice town , enjoy
 
We were at the vet this morning, and she put a clear tape cover over the worming details. I'm happy that we established it doesn't seem to be a requirement, perhaps it's considered good practice?

Vet I went to didn't even know about covering rabies entry .
Why I was asking about vets people used . Then didn't go to a recommended one !
Which vet were you at ?
 
The one in Honfleur. It's more expensive but we wanted to be settled somewhere over the Easter weekend, and in effect, I 'lost' the Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday part of the window of opportunity. So it had to be done this morning, before we left.
 
We just checked in at pet reception at the tunnel. The staff member confirmed the rabies must have a clear sticker, the worming doesn't need one but they aren't concerned if it does, it's a way of preventing alteration.

A little different from a vet I saw in Spain who asked what date I'd like entered!

Similarish experience with 2 different Belgian vets .
One , a few years ago , explained to me worming was no longer required but happy to fill in passport , no charge

I just checked Harry's Belgian passport. He was issued with this last year, and the rabies entry is just covered in sellotape.
Worth remembering in case the vet forgets.
