What treatments are needed or advised before travelling to France with a dog?
Just to clarify, this is for travelling to Brittany.
Protection against heartworms, lungworms and ticks would be a good idea. Please consult your own veterinary professional at least one month before you travel. Treatment will vary depending on the age, health, breed, previous travel history and past vaccination record of your dog. Your veterinary professional will prescribe the appropriate products containing the necessary active ingredients for treatment prior to travel, during travel if necessary and upon your return.
Also worth considering licensed fly repellents for Leishmania prevention if travelling to the South of France.
