Dogs need flea and tick treatment between 24 and 48 hours of you leaving France, best to plan your return journey so that you are near a vet with an aire/campsite nearby a day before departure, after treatment you are waiting for a minimum of 24 hours and maximum of 48 hours before you return to the UK. We used a vet in Hornfleur, nice English speaking lady, around 40 euro a Dog, chill out around the town and harbour then 3 hours the next day to Calais to return home.
I did hear somewhere that all of this was being done away with, how true I do not know
 
Many Thanks for info

::)never took a dog abroad before so all new to us .
 
We take our 2 working cockers over every year, its no hassle you just need to plan the last few days of your holiday. Decide on somewhere you want to visit that has a vet within a decent driving distance of Calais the day after treatment

Thanks for reply :D
 
Regulations changed on 1st January this year.

For new passports - there have been some significant changes to rabies injections, blood tests and the length of time before return to UK - check DEFRA as link above.

For those with current passports - just need to visit a vet for worm treatment between 1 and 5 days before return to UK. No requirements for tick treatment anymore.

This allows more flexibility in finding a vet before returning home:dance:
