Untill the event is put into motion,any such thoughts will be just the posters interpretations, and as to what will happen will be down to whoever is doing the negotiating on the real rules , once the event is triggered which maybe in about two months

I’m rather surprised the Club aren’t dedicating a read only thread to this event to be honest, even if there isn’t a great deal to post. Like others, I was reading the closed thread for updates. There has been some information for pet owners posted I seem to recall, probably down in pets section.

Personally I’m totally relaxed at the situation I’m pretty sure I will travel to Eastern Europe in July with no problem

I would agree with this, and back in September 2018 I posted a link, on this and other forums, to Government advice about travelling with pets after Brexit.  The advice was still ambivalent, with lots of 'ifs' and 'buts' but the worst case scenario involved pet owners in a process which could possibly take up to six months.  Posting the information early allowed several pro-active people to get the process started, and those people have all now got the reassurance of knowing that whatever happens we will be able to take our pets to Europe before or after B day, and bring them back again.   After all, we do actually have 'a date' and it is only 53 days away! 

I think it would be very useful to be able to discuss factual information, once government advice is issued - and not argue about whether that advice is correct or relevant.   In most other forums the information about pets was taken factually and people either acted on it if they needed to or just scrolled past the thread without making (too many) political points.

If people could avoid speculation, and nonsense posts, or avoid  getting involved in threads where they have no real interest, then I think even B word posts could be a very useful resource instead of just another source for point-scoring and antagonism. 

I usually do one year touring the west country, then the following year France, I keep my dog passport up to date with the rabies jab, and this year I was looking forward  to the western side of France down to the Spanish border and back up thru the Dordogne area,but with all the if and buts, do we need green card insurance, international driving licence, also is the passport going to be different, and the pet thingy Ive just sadly changed my mind this year and just see how it pans out for next year.

yes, and if you had not made this post i would probably have not taken early steps to make sure my dog was covered to travel, and guess what, it failed the initial rabies anti body test and we are waiting for results, expected next week. Originally we should have left the UK 2nd Apr, but have now brought this forward to 26th Mar so that we at least we get out before new rules come into play. As for all the rest IDP, green card etc I have sourced these as a " just in case", IDP is £10 to cover France and Spain, green card is free from insurance company, so my take on this is, if you think you might need it and it is not going to cost an arm and a leg, just buy it.
