  1. Call the airline that you will be flying on.  That may be the best bet.


  2. There are specalist companies that ship pets.

    Basically you get a Vets certificate and the correct jabs, pay the shipping company.

    On the day of the flight take them to the shipping company, they get them on a flight and they arrange for them to be taken off the other end.

    The you collect them from the airport, so if you do it right you can catch the same flight.

  3. Your dogs can travel with you.

    From PetExport website:

    European Union - information and veterinary requirements for the importation of cats and dogs from the UK.

    There is no official quarantine for cats and dogs entering any EU Country from the United Kingdom.

    Your dogs will need:

    An EU Pet Passport issued by your vet.

    To obtain this, you must first have your pet microchipped by your vet. The vet must then vaccinate your pet against rabies.

    If your pet is not going to be brought back to the UK your pet is now ready to go.

    If you do intend to return to the UK then the vet must obtain a blood sample 30 days after the rabies vaccination and submit it for testing. Assuming that this result is positive, the details of the blood test will be entered into the Pet Passport.

    Airlines require assurance that your pet is healthy enough to fly. Therefore your pet must be inspected by a vet shortly (preferably within a week) prior to the flight. The vet must then issue a fitness to fly (or private health) certificate.

    Animals must be shipped in containers built to IATA specifications which are the correct size for them ie they must be large enough for the animal to stand up without touching the top of the box, lie down comfortably and be able to turn round within the box. There must also be a fixed water container inside the container with a means of filling it from the outside (funnel).

    All the best!

  4. The quarantine period is 6 months.

  5. the same time it takes you to get there  

  6. If you bring them all we could make a nice dog soup. Here in Greece we love so much to especially when served with tzatziki!

  7. 6 months and some papers related to their health and vaccinations
