Bringing a dog or cat to the island means an EU pet passport — or an animal health certificate if you are travelling from outside the EU, Great Britain included — plus a readable microchip and a valid rabies vaccination, in that order, because a vaccination given before the chip does not count. Veterinary clinics on Gran Canaria read chips, record vaccinations and check before the journey home whether the booster is still valid. Airlines and ferry operators add their own rules on carriers, weight and advance booking, so check those when you book rather than at the desk.
Prevention is the island-specific part of the conversation: leishmaniasis and heartworm both occur in the Canaries, spread by sandflies and mosquitoes. A vet will go through which combination of repellent collar, spot-on, vaccination and blood testing fits the animal, its age and how long you are staying — no single measure rules an infection out. Every practice in this directory shows which languages are documented for it.
