Dogs and France

[paulktnichols]

Next year we are considering taking our 2 dogs to France with us - rather than paying for there stay in kennels that will cost more than OUR hols!! We are looking at the Midi-pyrennes or Charente Maritime. Anyone done this or got any info about sites etc. Any comments gratefully received.

Do it Paul. We took ours to France last year, with no problems at all.The French, generally, are very dog-friendly, but take care where you walk, as they think we are very odd because we clean up after our dogs.They don't!!Be aware, however, that your dog cannot come back into this country within six months of it's last blood test.In other words, if you plan to return in September, the last test would need to be done in March. It's also quite expensive. Ours cost over
