travel with a pup in Maroc
 
Hi a couple of days ago my pup was born.
Xmas/newyear we planned a trip to Maroc.

Option 1 is to leave him 2 weeks longer with his mom
Option 2 is to take him with us.

Is it doable to get it into Maroc and anyone experience with this?

Cheers

The official way is to get a form from defra.gov.uk to get an export certificate confirming the animal has a rabies vaccination, but then there's a six-month quarantine on return.

the 6 months on return is for the UK I suppose?

Yes. I understand it's because Morocco is outside the area covered by the PETS scheme (http://www.defra.gov.uk/animalh/quarantine/index.htm).

I don't know whether there are any meaningful checks coming back into Spain if you understand what I'm getting at.

Also many UK ports don't have customs checks any more, Dieppe - Newhaven crossing is one example.

After a reported Rabid dog being brought out of Morocco and into France, via Spain, I have noticed large posters up at the border [Ceuta] warning about animal importation. Not connected [more looking for illegal people] but most vehicles entering Ceuta from Morocco seem to be "looked in".

I suppose it depends on how of a risk you are willing to take in loosing your pup.

Pup in Moroc
 
Leave the dog with its mother as you need a load of inoculations and a pet passport to pass through Europe and to get in and out of Ceuta
