I havnt been over for 2 year but for 10 year i went over twice a year with a few terriers and pups in the van and came back with the odd terrier , the van always got searched on both sides , they would always say "are they hunting dogs" but never any issues of any kind apart from when i had a petrol can in van ha that was leave the port and get rid .
That was from Scotland going into both ports in the north and heading down to Clare .
