So exciting!!!!! Don't drug your dog for the flight. Airlines usually won't accept an animal if it's been drugged.

Good luck!!
OK, great thanks!
We are not getting a pet company to help us either. The paperwork looks ok for us to do ourselves and save a lot of money!

Well, I have cancelled our return trip on the QM2 27 July..... because I have rebooked for 6 July!!!
Hubby is returning to UK in May to start his new job and then will return to Canada early July to help us finish here, drive to New York and sail home.
We are now returning our dog by air cargo sometime in June as their are no kennels left on QM2 6 July, but that's OK.
We are just researching how to cargo our dog home with Air Canada, so any advice from anyone who has just done it, we would be very grateful. Do you still drug the pet to sleep through the flight?

We are currently very stressed with all the dog information, getting container quotes and working out finances. I know it will all come together in the end though.
Great news!!!! Dunroving, who regularly posts in this forum shipped his dog at least twice, but not recently. I think Dollface, who just returned from Toronto?? shipped her dog. So if you don't hear from anybody you could get in touch with them.

Just over three months till you go. I hope it has stopped snowing by the time you get here. It is freezing with snow hitting many parts of the country. Sometimes I think I am still in Canada

Exactly!! Our village choir is performing our "Spring Concert" tomorrow night and at Wednesday's rehearsal I suggested that we just pull out the Christmas music we performed in December as it would be more appropriate.

Hopefully it will be a glorious summer for you

Pompey, Pompey, where for art thou Pompey ! We're all dying to know how the flight was and how it feels to be home. Hope you had a safe trip.

Phew, the great sell-off is almost complete but I still have a huge armoire and two tables to go..... why do I have two tables I ask myself??? My brain has Craigslist fatigue.

Tip: Allow WAY more time to sell things than you think you need, people can be fickle!

Nine days and counting....

I reckon she's lying in a stupor surrounded by cadbury's chocolate wrappers. The cat is on top of the wardrobe glaring at her, but there's a blissful smile on her face
