Same for us ,our dogs have Irish passportsMy Irish born dog has a Belgian issued pet passport as he predates Brexit. We just show it at Folkestone or Dover. They check his microchip and off we go.
Going back to the UK we get his worming done, usually in France, although once in Belgium, and go home. Same chip checks as before plus the worming section. Not had any problems.

Or 120 hours maximum; not 120 hours and 1 minute!Note that when returning to the UK, you need to see a vet to get the worming tablets, and the paperwork to say it was taken by the dog. You will need to wait at least 24 hours from the time the tablet was taken to getting on the ferry/tunnel. And that means 24 hours minimum, not 23 hours 59 minutes. Once taken, it's valid for about 5 days, I think.
The dog will surely have a rabies jab logged in the Romanian passport? Issued in Romania or an EU country? That needs simply to be valid exiting the UK before expiry and a new vaccine done in an EU country.My dog is a Romanian rescue with a Romanian passport. Isn’t there an issue with the rabies vaccine insofar as he needs to have this done in the UK to enter Eu, and then again in the EU so that the EU passport is updated in the EU?
He has but it’s out of date.The dog will surely have a rabies jab logged in the Romanian passport? Issued in Romania or an EU country? That needs simply to be valid exiting the UK before expiry and a new vaccine done in an EU country.

It lapsed in 2017 so I think this is what I need to do, thanksSaucer To get our patterdale a passport we had a one years rabies done by our vet in uk about eight months before travelling this was on AHC for proof ,then we were away for three months so got his passport in Portugal before rabies vax expired and Portuguese vet administered a three year rabies vax for passport giving us a good run before requiring a booster when we travel to continent again
However if your dog already has an up to date rabies vax on his passport when you next travel to EU you can get it done whilst there and won’t need to do one before you go.
You didn't say that in your original post.He has but it’s out of date.
IndeedYou didn't say that in your original post.
So you now need a rabies done by a UK vet and get an AHC from a UK vet, travel and get the Rom EU passport updated by an EU vet.

Just to add to autorouter's helpful post, after getting the EU vet worming done you have to arrive back in the UK within the maximum five days (120 hours). Some folks have mistakenly assumed that it was only necessary to leave the EU within 120 hours. This particularly matters if you have a long ferry crossing, e.g. from Spain, which can use up more than 30 hours of your 120.Note that when returning to the UK, you need to see a vet to get the worming tablets, and the paperwork to say it was taken by the dog.
