Can anyone tell me if you have to worm and flea you dog before leaving the uk, our dog is regularly wormed and flea treat but our vet has said he needs to do the treatment before we go, i was on the understanding its to be done 1-5 days before returning to the uk not both ways x

Worming on return only, flea treat advisable before outward journey, not required on return.

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

I would be wary of any suggestion made by your vet in future, it sounds like he is wanting to charge you for unnecessary treatment.If your vet has prepared your Pet Passport I would check that it has been done correctly too.

Wormer on way back into UK.

My vet did mention treating for sandfly, he gave us a box of Advantix which covers fleas and ticks too. I only use that on my chap when we are going abroad not in UK.

Definitely only actually required on the way home (between 1 and 5 days before you return) but there are things abroad we don't get here so I'm going to flea and worm my dog before we go as well so she's covered while she's over there as well.

It is strongly recommended to apply a product such as Advantix before you go in order to protect against leismaniosis which is spread by sand flies and mosquitos. This disease is particularly nasty and spreading from the south of france, northwards. When we have taken our dog to the vet in France ready for return in the last two years, the vets have been most concerned about treatment, prior to going over there. Their is now a vaccine available for leismaniosis in France.
Regards Bob.

For Sandflies (leismaniosis) we use the Scalibor collars. Available online and although absorbed through the skin you can remove it if there are adverse reactions.
