Code:
date = keyboard.nextString();
eurodate = date.substring(3, 4) + "-" + date.substring(0, 1) + "-" + date.substring(6, 9);
My java's kinda hazy, but I'm fairly sure that this will work. Substring cuts up the string you give it at the different indeces you supply it. So date.substring(3, 4) evaluates to the string "dd".
