If I am reading this right you are saying that there is NO quarantine in England as long as your dog has the shots? I'm not sure what you are referring to BUT I know that if you don't have the required 6 months to get what they want done before you travel then there is NO way around that quarantine. She doesn't have that 6 months due to having to go back unexpectedly. I am in the same situation since being given only 3 months notice before a move. With only the 3 months, it doesn't matter what shots your dog already has or how up t date they are. Everything has to be given AFTER the micro chip (specific one that most US vets do not use) is placed whether they have up to date shots or not and then a 6 month wait after that is done.
If you have information different than this I wonder if you could point me in the direction of where to find it.
