There is about three lads that do regular trips near you fatboy. Usually twice a week...... fairly reasonable cost too........ Irish/U.K. laws changed back in 2010 to align with EU laws. As no rabies in Ireland & U.K. the authorities chose to ignore these laws for dog transport between Ireland & U.K. until recently when somebody screwed up? Below is an extract from Dept of Agriculture. No doubt the transport lads have been pulled on this so are ensuring the required paperwork is in place. otherwise they will be stuck at the harbour with lots of dogs.........

Transport of companion animals (dogs, cats, ferrets) from Ireland to U.K.

Notice to commercial breeders

Under EU law for the protection of citizens from rabies, dogs, cats and ferrets moving between EU Member States should be accompanied by EU Pet Passports certifying microchip identification and rabies vaccination. Given that Ireland and UK traditionally operated a rabies free zone, both States agreed, on a risk analysis basis, that border compliance checks would not be undertaken.

However, over the last few months, on two different occasions, dogs supplied by commercial breeders in Ireland to clients in Great Britain were deemed to be illegally imported as they did not have the required paperwork and vaccination to show their compliance with EU law; on one of the occasions, a dog was seized from the client’s home and placed in quarantine for 4 weeks.

It is now clear that the British authorities have moved to fully implement EU law; therefore to avoid any risk to your clients you would be advised to ensure that all of your exports are compliant as soon as possible.

 

EU requirements for all dogs, cats and ferrets moving from Ireland to GB (i.e. across Irish Sea):

EU Pet Passport (obtainable from your vet) showing –

• Microchip identification
• Valid rabies vaccination (i.e. administered according to the manufacturer’s protocol). The primary (first) rabies vaccination must be administered at least 21 days before travel.

Additional requirements for commercial exports (i.e. sale or change of ownership):

• Transport has to have Type 2 Transporter Authorisation from the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine. Transporters must comply with the Guidelines on Animal Welfare during Transport.
• A vet must complete and certify (in passport) clinical examination of animals within 24 hours of travel to ensure they are healthy and fit for journey.
• A health (‘Balai’) certificate must be issued by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine within 24 hours of scheduled departure time – available from your local Regional Veterinary Office.

a bit of a pain in the bolloxs having to go tru all that red tape to get a dog from one country to the other, but on the upside it might put a stop to the scumbag dog thiefs robbing peoples dogs and shipping them from one country to the other. at least if your dog is robbed u might have a better chance getting it back if its in the same country
