Okay,
Thanks everyone for the discussion. We have been emailing DEFRA (The
food and agriculture authority in Europe) and are in the process of getting
all the documentation in place to travel with the dog. The requirements are
mainly: Microchipping your dog for identification and vaccination
confirmation purposes, Rabies testing and a six month wait to confirm no
rabies is present. All shots, of course and a treatment for ticks (part of
the monthly heartworm treatment in the most current product) and tapeworm
just a day prior to travel. We are waiting for confirmations, but it is
looking good. Check out our website as we may post the final results, and
for ongoing updates of this trip. "blueeden" dot "ca". Cheers, and happy
sailing. Thanks to Skip Gundlach for the Mark Twain quote...words to live
by.

Does anyone have experience cruising with a small dog?
Next year we will sail the milk run of the Atlantic: Azores, Canaries, St.
Lucia and lesser antilles in Caribbean, Bermuda.
Some islands have pet restrictions. Are they strictly enforced or can a
small dog go discretly ashore?
