I have heard a lot of people recommendin Golden something!!! Maybe Golden Arrow (or I might be talking out of my ar*e)... We are relly worried about our dog - hes a huge GSD and frightened of his own shadow. I am sooo worried about him. We used to have a boxer and he was so daft it wouldnt of fazed him at all. I'm sure he was mentally challenged!!!!

mmm, shes a crazy as a box of frogs (shes lay at my feet now ). shes quite a scardy cat as well. we have ummed and ahhed about this, as she isnt a good traveller. or wasnt, up until about 6 months ago. i think/hope she will be okay. the kids are desperate for her to go, and as shes still quite young, weve decided (or i have!!) to bring her along for the ride.

I know what you mean - couldnt leave my babies at home. Just started to get a few quotes - cheapest so far is £3409 for the cat and dog and thats only to Sydney. I will then have to pay the quarantine and pay to ship them to north qld. Makes me wonder how much I really do love them lol

We're using Pet Travel Services in Dunfermline for our 2 cockers (£2600!!!) but also got quotes from Golden Arrow and Airpets. All of them seemed really good and we only went with PTS because it was the only one that would ship from Scotland. I know what you mean about measuring them though, I'm sure my measurements are COMPLETELY wrong lol!
