Can you take the dog out of the EU (Ireland) to the UK, then back into the EU without a loaf of hassle?

One of my dogs is originally from Wexford, I suppose you could say she was technically smuggled up here.
This will be a one way trip for the hound, from Ireland to Spain where she'll hopefully live a few more years. She'll be 17 in May, her mum lived to 20. From a litter of 4 she still has a brother alive. A sister died last year, another sister died from heart problems when she about 10. Her mother belonged to my uncle who lives about 100 yards away, she hasn't exactly travelled extensively. The furthest she's been is 2 trips to the vet around 2 miles away.

These days my understanding is that if you go via the UK then it adds extra checks, paperwork and cost.

Pre or post Brexit? Not that I'll be going via the UK but like everything, Brexit makes a difference.

You can't get into France from UK nowadays bringing a cat or dog without an AHC (Animal Health Certificate) or a French/Euro pet passport. Don't know how it is for Spain, but I imagine it would be the same.

Providing you have an up to date dog passport, it's just a wormer to get into the UK, nothing to get out!

Part of the 'up to date passport' bit!
