I want to warn everyone against making use of All Pets Transport & to never use them for the transportation of your animals. I am also going to ask that you share this post on your wall or groups. We work hard for our money and trust transporters with the safety of our animals, so we have full right to raise awareness.

I was referred to make use of them to transport my dog. I paid in full for her reservation a week before she was meant to be collected from Plett and delivered in CT on the 20th of April. I had to make arrangements for my animal to be cared for whilst I was travelling as well.

Following a series of outreach via whatsapp's and calls, but blatantly being ignored, my call was finally answered by the owner Tiaan last Sunday afternoon (21 April) in which he informed me that their van is broken and will not be collecting my dog as paid & arranged for on Sat, 20 April. (This is after they've had my money for a week, didn't bother advising me that they won't be collecting my animal due to their van being broken! Since WHEN is it the client's responsibility to act as the service provider and follow through with updates re additional arrangements?!) I advised Tiaan as per phone call that I would urgently need to find another courier ASAP as arrangements has been made for my animal to be cared for until the 20th of April & that he needs to transfer my money back asap in order to pay the other courier. I confirmed all with him, sent my bank details and p**f! Gone AGAIN!!

After numerous messages & phone calls every day, I finally got hold of Cornelia's number and again advised her as well, to which I was ignored as well. Being forced to threaten them, I received a voice note back within minutes from Cornelia advising she will make payment on Friday, 26 April. Colour me shocked - NO payment and NO communication again after my messages yesterday.

So here I find myself, true to my word, taking to social media, as Cornelia from All Pets Transpot has not honoured her voice note to me on 25 April saying she will make payment yesterday (26 April), and still nothing and my messages are being ignored AGAIN.

Summary:
Client pays
All Pets Transport takes money gladly
Client follows up
Client ignored
Client's agreed service not provided
Client follows up
Client advised animal won't be collected as their fleet is not in working order
Client requests trsfr of HER funds, NO service was delivered
Client needs to book another courier
Client gets ignored
Client still does not have money returned or animal delivered

In the end I am glad my animal is not transported by them. I was informed they load all types of animals including birds together with pups. Do you know that birds carry Coccidia, which can be fatal to pups?

Again, please share this message far & wide

*** UPDATE - Maui has been rehomed ***

Hi all, Maui is from one of my previous litters and the owner unfortunately has to rehome due to financial strain.

Some info on Maui from his owner:

Maui is a gorgeous, goofy, happy-go-luck, pure, rough collie looking for his forever home. A nice big property or farm with other dogs would be ideal but not necessary. Maui is 2 - going on 3. A playful dog friend is a must.
Maui is great with other dogs, farm animals, small animals. Once he warms up he wants to be on your lap. Loves toys and water. Fully vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, treated for parasites.
He is an inside dog. He sleeps on the bed, couch etc. When I am home he is inside. He is part of the family. House trained.
Grew up in a quiet home hence does not like screaming/shouting/banging/clapping or people fighting etc. He is fine with loud music.
He is used to horses too.
This decision is hard and not taken lightly and only due to financial strain.
Located in CPT. Northern suburbs. Only to exceptional home.

Please make contact directly with Elme on 073 265 3927

🌴Sunday vibes for our litter who is nearing the 7 week mark πŸ₯°

The past week our furballs have been introduced to various new toys & objects to practice bite inhibition, exposure to water to "activate" the natural swimming reaction to water & enjoyed new foods such as apples, rabbit & duck.

This coming week will be their last week with us 😒 before they leave to join their new families πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦

We continue what we have been working on with them as well as work on resource guarding, following our hands/fingers with food in them, give them food puzzles, start on having a collar on and leash training.

We will be also be introducing puppy stews consisting of Raw beef/chicken/lamb as a base (from ) with many healthy toppers such as herbs, leafy greens & various fruits and veggies 🍌πŸ₯•πŸ

Desensitizing puppies are extremely important.

Fear starts at 5 weeks & puppies are, for the first time, capable of experiencing true fear. We guide the puppies through their fear period, avoiding any experience that might cause life-long fear problems, and building more emotional resilience.

For sound stimulation, we make use of items such as vacuum cleaners, plastic bags, lawn mowers, sound clips & movies of puppies and dogs, etc to ensure we expose them as much as possible to different environments, creating emotionally stability.

Providing your pack with the best nutrition means you're feeding them the way nature intended πŸ₯° I love the range available from & so do my doggos 😁

Here are a few reasons why you should ditch the dry {kibble}, TODAY..

πŸ₯© Dogs are biologically, born scavenger carnivores. They have hinged, powerful jaws along with canines and triangular shaped carnassial teeth for the ripping and tearing of flesh and crushing of bone.

πŸ’¦ Dry dog food only has a moisture content of 10%. Feeding a raw or cooked diet will contain an average of 70% moisture content. So a real food fed dog will get the majority of their daily water intake from their diet. This ensures optimal hydration!

🦷 Offering your dog a raw or cooked diet has the potential to reduce the number of bacteria which are present in its mouth, keep plaque levels low, and freshen its breath. Feeding appropriate bones to your dog also acts as natures toothbrush, helping to remove plaque and keep the gum line healthy.

πŸ• Processed dry dog food, contains added synthetic vitamins and minerals, which your dog's body doesn't absorb well, and can be harmful long term.

πŸ’© The volume of p**p produced by dogs fed on a raw or cooked diet will be significantly less than dogs fed on a processed, carbohydrate-based diet, as there are no wasted ingredients.

✨ A diet that consists of fresh, raw and natural foods will provide your dog with the essential fatty acids and amino acids needed to maintain healthy skin and a shiny coat. A dog's skin and fur are almost exclusively built from protein, and up to 30% of the protein consumed in the diet is used by the body to maintain skin and coat condition!
