September 2026 with ProPaws! 🐾🚐🇪🇸🇫🇷🇬🇧
What an amazing journey! 35 dogs and cats travelling between Spain and the UK — and back again — with quite a few miles, plenty of dog walks and the occasional strong coffee thrown in for good measure!
First up was beautiful Valentina, delivered to her brand-new family in Barcelona, ready for the next stage of her adventure to her forever home in Menorca. ❤️
With Valentina safely delivered, we headed north into France for our first overnight break — because unlike Geoff and Collin, the tachograph doesn't respond particularly well to “we're nearly there!” 😀
Morning came and it was back on the road, heading through France to Calais and across the Channel to the UK.
Once on British soil, we headed to the South Coast before making our way around to East Essex, through Cambridge, up into North Yorkshire and across to Lancashire.
Then came overnight stop number two — dog walks, welfare checks and, of course, the obligatory ProPaws video shoot. The dogs generally look considerably fresher on camera than Geoff and Collin do by this stage! 🐶
Meanwhile, back at ProPaws HQ, Tracey was doing what Tracey does best — keeping everything organised, keeping everyone informed and generally calling the shots from several hundred miles away!
The following morning we began the drive south through Shropshire, then on to Somerset and Cornwall.
By Monday, with some of our return travellers safely on board, the wheels were pointing back towards London and eventually Dover for the journey back into Europe.
And apparently 34 travellers weren't quite enough excitement for one trip! ProPaws even found time to collect a brand-new rescue dog for Sunny Shores Dog Rescue, who is now happily settling into his new environment. ❤️🐶
He officially became traveller number 35 of our September adventure — and what a lovely way to finish the trip!
By Wednesday night, every single pet had been safely delivered. ❤️
And, as always with ProPaws:
🐾 Every collection and delivery was door to door.
🐾 No motorway service-station drop-offs.
🐾 No families or adoptors expected to drive miles to collect their pet.
🐾 Fully tachograph compliant throughout.
🐾 Legal, licensed and professional from start to finish.
There really is only one way we know how to do this job — the ProPaws way.
No corners cut. No half measures. Just a good, honest, professional service that puts the animals and their welfare first.
A huge thank you to every rescue, private owner, family and adoptor who continue to put their trust in ProPaws to do things properly.
Legal. Licensed. Fully compliant.
Travel smart. Travel legally. Travel with ProPaws. 🐾🚐❤️
