After Brexit March 2019 – potential big changes for pets and overseas travel
From Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends.‘Potentially big changes for taking your pets overseas from the UK after March 2019… It could resort back to the old system where titre counts for Rabies are required and 4 months waiting before they can travel and to complete a number of documents to travel. We had to do this back in 2001 when we first moved to Spain with our dogs. This will also impact on rescue dogs though in this article there is no mention of them but I imagine they will have to comply with the same rules to travel from Europe to the UK.’

Fundacion Benjamin Mehnert, Seville – Paloma adopted in Italy
If you are considering adopting a galgo, and wonder if they can live with cats, then have a look at this lovely video of Paloma, adopted in Italy from the Fundacion Benjamin Mehnert shelter. My first greyhound, a stray, lived happily with my cats but none of my Spanish galgos have, their hunting instinct has been too strong. So it’s essential that a galgo is properly cat tested before adoption. -
