I want to get a dog but I have to work, how does everyone on broadway market do it ?

Was thinking about getting the pup ferried over with a pet transport company - she has an EU-issued pet passport, can anyone confirm (before i pop back to the vets) that this means she won’t need an Animal Health Certificate, and just the rabies + tapeworm vaccinations?

That's not how it worked for us when we went to France.

If you're going from the UK<>EU then you need the Animal Health Certificate with the Rabies shot beforehand. Then while you're out there you need to get the vet to apply a worming treatment and fill section four of the AHC out. That'll allow you to come back to the UK.

The pet passport IS still used when going on between EU countries (i.e. if you're going from France to Poland my guess is that you'd use that here) but its the UK<>EU bit that needs the AHC.

Apparently getting an AHC in London is brutal atm, weeks and weeks lead time, best advice I got was to look at Vets near Dover because a lot of them specialise in it for people who haven't got theirs sorted in time. It needs to be a specific vet too, I can't remember the name of them, but they have to be govt certified. Good luck.
