InvictaMoto's Family Travels

Vets in France! It seemed much easier for the FR16 trip.  The vets in Abbeville had a website and an email address.  I made an appointment by email and we turned up at the allotted time and it was all very easy. Even though the Dordogne region must be home to thousands upon thousands of ex-pat British, locating a veterinary surgery that can dose Reggie with the worming pill designed to kill the usual tapeworms and a few that Europe keeps to itself, is proving plus difficile.

I put a note on Tripadvisor and also an email to the tourist board and the results seem to have led me to MC-Vet in Sarlat itself.  An email and we have a dialogue to book Reggie in there towards the end of the week we are there. Sarlat is only 7 miles from the campsite. There is a particular tapeworm that we don't have in the UK, and that they have in Europe that we need to kill before it comes over to us.

I have ordered the Tesco vouchers to cover the cost of the Eurotunnel crossing.  As usual we'll have to pay cash for Reggie to have his passport checked. Bu...
