Helping people and pets travel for going on 10 years now has been quite the wild ride! Pet travel is complicated! With every pet that moves there is always the ‘human’ part that is so interesting! Sometimes funny, sometimes crazy and occasionally sad; we have decided to put together some these ‘memorable moments’ and post them here on our Puppy Travel website occasionally. Enjoy!
We were contacted by a dog owner who had a corgi she needed picked up and shipped from Evanston Wyoming to Dallas Texas. The dog had been up in Evanston most of the summer with a pet sitter. Sounds easy enough right? As the details began to unfold, it was anything but easy. The owner had been on the summer rodeo circuit her husband- the world champion “bronking bull rider”. He was on a big winning streak they had to leave the dog in Wyoming at the last minute to head to a bunch of rodeo’s through out the western USA. The pet sitter she left the dog with as we found out had ‘bonded’ with the corgi and did not want to send it back to the owner who was now home in Texas. The pet sitter was ‘sleeping with the dog’ and loved it! The owner begged us to drive up to Evanston and get her dog and ship it to her. The pet sitter claimed the owner ‘abandoned the dog’. Working back and forth between the 2 we were finally able to ‘hand the dog off’ at the Evanston Mc Donald’s. Nice dog …mad pet sitter and happy reunited corgi pet owner!
