4.7 Customers shall inform Eurotunnel at the time of making their Booking of the likely presence of domestic pets on board the Coach. The carriage of pets is covered by the relevant clause(s) in the Conditions of Carriage. Declaring the presence of pets is mandatory and the responsibility for doing so rests with the Customer. Dogs, cats, and ferrets are required to be subject to controls prior to embarking for the United Kingdom. These controls are carried out by Eurotunnel and the supplement payable in respect of each animal shall be paid by the Customer at the time of making their Booking. There is no supplement payable in respect of guide dogs for blind persons or for assistance dogs accompanying their owner, subject to the production of documentation attesting to the dogs' status. The controls take place prior to check-in and Customers should allow sufficient extra time. Eurotunnel recommends that Customers contact DEFRA (www.defra.gov.uk) for all relevant information.

4.8 Eurotunnel shall not be liable in the event of delays to crossings arising from Customers' failure to comply with clause 4.7 above, nor shall it be liable for any other consequence of Customers' failures to comply with the Pets Scheme (as set out in the Conditions of Carriage).
