Dogs
 

What can anybody tell me about getting my dogs to Spain? (Other than driving myself) There must be loads of you who have taken your pets to your retirement spot. good experiences or bad, give me them all.

Probably one of the cheapest ways is taking them yourself. Or you can have them flown or there are services that bring them in overland but that can also be expensive. Depends on how much money you have in your wallet.

I flew my dog here, but I would never do it again. It cost 385 pounds for him to be put in a cat box and fly with the luggage. Its a massive earner for the airline and massive stress for the owners and dogs!!! If ever I have to go back to the Uk I will definately drive.

We drove down with our 2 dogs, we spread the journey over 3 days and the dogs were fine. When we got a puppy last year we used a pet courier company to bring him from france to the costa de la luz and we had no problems.
