No problems. However, ours aren't too keen on car travel, even at home, so our progress is pretty slow. We stop every 90 mins or so to give them an airing and don't usually do more than about 4 hours in total before finding a site for the night. Every 2 or 3 days we stop a couple of nights. It seems to work OK, but if your dogs don't mind the car you can probably make better progress if you want to.

Coming back it is just a matter of finding a vet - see the map on this site which is really useful.

Rule 1: Don't stress!
.....France is generally dog friendly, DEFRA site gives all details re passports etc. and all carriers only too eager to take your money. Check proposed sites and away you go!

Lots of people find it OK - unless they want to go into shops, supermarkets, cathedrals, museums, stately homes, swimming pools or on to busy beaches. It all depends what sort of holiday activities you have in mind. Good luck with your holiday plans.

No problem. I'll be taking my two Cockers to France in a few weeks. Wouldn't dream of not taking them with me.

We have been taking our dogs to France with us for 10years now. I think if you have never done it before it appears stressful but it really isn't.

We just have the one little doggie now and try stopping her from coming with us. The French love her, we go everywhere with her and also find out dog friendly sections of beaches. We have never felt restricted.

Just make sure you sort out the vet appointment in advance and time it with your return journey.
