Hi, we've just taken our dog to Serre Chevalier (1500m) for Xmas and New Year. First you need to get your dog microchipped, then vaccinated against rabies, followed by a blood test to get their EU Pet passport (see www.defra.gov.uk). After a 6 month interval they can travel between Europe and UK, provided rabies vacc. is up to date. The dog thoroughly enjoyed the holidayCan't actually take them skiing of course. Only problem we noticed was snow freezing between her paws sometimes. She loved the cold more than we do.
