Meet Bella and Leo, two Golden Retrievers who have just relocated to Canada. Both dogs ar almost 14 years old but are in very good health and condition. Leo is a little slower than Bella and choosing the right travel kennel was absolutely paramount because he needed just a little more space for turning and being completely comfortable. So we spent some time at their Manchester home and tried out a few travel kennels to make sure we had the right one.
I’m delighted to say that the dogs were collected by me at 3:30 on Sunday morning, driven to Manchester Airport and checked in to fly on Air Transat to Toronto. 18 hours later and they are relaxing with their owners in Toronto. My thanks to the team at Workd Wide Animal Transport in Toronto for taking care of the arrivals and delivering them to their new home.
Attached some photos showing them at their Manchester home trying crates, early morning at the airport and finally home. ❤️🐾🇬🇧✈️🐾🇨🇦

Well it’s been a while since I posted anything on Facebook as there are only so many ways you can say that the pet or pets you moved landed safe and sound etc etc. However I thought it was time to let you know that although I’ve not been posting we have been extremely busy moving pets around the planet.
It was good to wake up this morning with a message from our client Rob that the family dog Bruce had made it to Hong Kong in the early hours of this morning after leaving Manchester yesterday. So below are some photos of Bruce trying out his travel kennel a few weeks ago and the one from 6:30 yesterday morning at Manchester airport cargo as we popped him on a forklift to be taken to the X-ray machine and finally one of Bruce living it large at my client’s fathers house in Hong Kong. 🐾✈️

Meet Matcha the Pomeranian and Sunny the golden Dachshund who we exported back to Hong Kong at the weekend. We have been working with Mum and Dad Margaret and Cohen for several months getting everything ready for them to return home. Coincidentally exactly a year ago we moved Matcha and Sunny’s cousin, Hiro the Shiba Inu back to Hong Kong and we didn’t know everyone was related.
Sunny and Matcha met up with Hero when they returned safe and sound to Hong Kong

This is another chocky Labrador who arrived a day before his dad from Canada so we collected him from the airport after his clearance and dropped him off at Newgate for an overnight stay. He had a good old sniff fest before checking out his accommodation.
Dad picked him up the following day and now Cadbury ( yep that’s his name ) is somewhere near the Lancashire coast.

Meet Zeus and Tui who have just arrived in New Zealand and are spending this week in quarantine, whilst mum and dad buy new beds, bowls, food and much more cat paraphernalia 😊 for when they come out later in the week. Perfect travellers from Manchester to London Heathrow flying to Auckland via Singapore.

The world of pet travel sometimes has it’ minor hiccups. In this case we were moving Hamish to Dallas Fort Worth and he was due to leave on the 4th October but unfortunately the temperature in Dallas was in the 90’s (Fahrenheit) and Hamid was grounded til the following Tuesday 10th. No problem! I just collected him on the Wednesday morning and he checked into our favourite boarding facility Newgate Kennels in Wilmslow near Manchester Airport. Our friend looked after the big fella until I collected him and took him down to London Heathrow and checked him in on American Airlines who were brilliant.
Some photos of his journey from checking out his bespoke travel kennel to arriving in Dallas where he was met by mum and dad and our friends from the Pet Porters who are looking after his rather large travel crate and then moving him back to the U.K. in the new year.
Hamish, by the way, took everything in his stride.

Hey everyone, my apologies for my absence and for not updating our pages with recent departures and arrivals.
I’m going to start with Gloria the Dachshund, who has neither departed or arrived. She is just starting the long journey to Australia and she popped round to be measured up for her travel kennel, which she took with her as she wants plenty of time to get used to her temporary travel home during her journey next year. We will see more of Gloria in coming months.
She is a cutie

Our latest traveler “Hiro” the gorgeous Shiba Inu, although the guys at the airport thought I was sending a Fox to Hong Kong 😊 cute little guy and as I’m texting he is being loaded into the aircraft ready for his trip.

You may remember a pet called Silva who we were relocating from the U.K. to Melbourne, Australia. And due to the logistics and need for Silva’s family to depart before him, and a change in the regulations for pet trave to Australia including 30 days quarantine. Yes you will no doubt worry about your pet making such a journey but this is the perfect example of throughout your pets journey across the planet you pet us in the best of hands, starting with us. Our thanks to Silva’s family for allowing us to take care of Silva’s journey.

Well it’s 09:30 on Wednesday morning and I just got back from London Heathrow after leaving home last night at 10:30 to collect Maxx from Harrogate and then drive down to Heathrow to check him in with American Airlines as he is flying back home to Philadelphia USA.
Before I checked him in we went for a walk and a pre flight p*e. Maxx that is, not me.
I’m having a cup of tea before I get my head down for a couple or three hours.
I’m shattered 😊
