Things may have changed in the last few years, but six years ago when we moved to London there was a six month quarantine period to bring dogs from the US to the UK. Obviously, we weren't going to do this. However, you could bring microchipped dogs into other countries in the EU from the US and then EU dogs could go into the UK as long as you had a certificate from an EU vet. We ultimately decided that were were only going for a year and we left the dog with my parents, but if we had decided to take her, we would have had her flown on a pet airline to an EU city (probably Brussels because you can take the Eurostar straight to London) and gotten her the correct paperwork. I do remember that the UK was thinking about changing their quarantine laws, but you should check with your vet. At the very least, the dog will need to be microchipped and have a series of shots that must be done over several months.
