Planning a European road trip with your dog? Taking your four-legged companion across the Channel in a caravan, motorhome, or campervan is easier than you think, provided you get the vet paperwork and timing right!

In this video, we break down the essential steps for travelling to Europe with your dog from the UK. From microchip checks and rabies vaccination timelines to securing your Animal Health Certificate (AHC) within 10 days of travel, we cover everything you need to know for a smooth journey through ferry ports or Le Shuttle.

We also cover the vital rules for returning home, including administering tapeworm treatments between 1 and 5 days before re-entering Great Britain, and how to find pet-friendly European campsites welcoming dogs across 16 countries.
