How to Take Your Dog to Europe for Travel (With or Without a Car)
❣️ Bringing your dog to Europe from the UK is not too difficult, but it can be a bit troublesome. However, with patience, everything can be resolved. Travel Methods ❣️ Self-driving to France: Any size or breed, as long as you have a car. If renting, make sure to ask about any additional fees for dogs. Take the car, along with your dog, from Folkestone to France by ferry, then disembark at Calais. You need to book this in advance, and follow the website's instructions to put a label on the outside of your car. ❣️ Cabin Companion: Dogs under 8kg can be brought along with their carriers. Only more expensive airlines accept pets, such as Air France, KLM, Scandinavian Airlines, etc. Remember to apply for a pet cabin ticket from the airline after purchasing your ticket! ❣️ Pet Cargo: There are basically no restrictions on size and weight (the limits are quite large, and most pet dogs won't exceed them). Only larger airlines offer pet services, and you need to book in advance! 🥹 Planes can only depart from the UK, not return with pets, so you can fly out but must take a boat/self-drive back, regardless of your dog's breed or weight. Taking a boat to the Netherlands: Stena Line takes about 8-9 hours, with both morning departures and overnight sailings. There are no restrictions on size or weight, 🥰 but you need to reserve a pet-friendly cabin. Only with a "pets friendly cabin" ticket can you stay in the same place as your dog. If you don't reserve one, they have pet cages, which are separate from the seats, and you'll need to check on your poor puppy from time to time. #TravelingWithDogs#Europe#TravelDiary#RecommendedTravelGuide#CutePuppies
