Pet Travel Story: Buster & Milo’s Move to China

Incredible Experiences: Two Cavaliers Move to Shanghai

We love hearing updates from recent clients! Here's one from Chris, who just moved with his dogs Buster and Milo.

Dear PetRelocation,

In the beginning of 2014 my family, including our two beloved King Charles cavaliers, were relocated to Shanghai, China from Connecticut.

Upon learning of this corporate transfer, one of my greatest anxieties surrounded the travel of my dogs. Beyond the amazing amount of paper work, I feared how the dogs would handle the very long journey and how the dogs would be cared for along the way.

PetRelocation provided us door-to-door service and all logistical paperwork and planning. They reassured me through every step in the process and I never doubted that all the logistics would be handled and the dogs would be safe, happy and well cared for during the journey.

At the suggestion of our agent, over a month before the travel date I got the dogs used to the travel crates they were to be shipped in. They moved from sleeping in the bed with us to sleeping in the crates at night. I also made a point to drive them around in my car in the crates. By the time they left I am pretty sure they enjoyed the crates, frequently sleeping in them during the day. I think this step helped a lot.

On the day they arrived in China, my expectations were to have two traumatized dogs, tails tucked between their legs, needing lots of love. Instead the pups arrived with tails wagging as though nothing had happened. I credit this to the amazing care they were given during the long journey.

I can't thank PetRelocation enough and only wish I worried slightly less about their relocation. 

Thanks,

Chris
