Once our couriers arrived back in the UK, there were happy reunions for our Greek passengers. In the meantime, little dog Bailey flew back to Greece for an emotional reunion with owner Lynette.

Bailey
Sweet Terrier Bailey travelled with us to the UK on our October trip from Greece. Owing to a bad back, her owner Lynette had very reluctantly decided to rehome Bailey. Lynette quickly realised, however, that she couldn’t live without Bailey, so asked us to arrange a return trip for her.
Following a veterinary health check, we popped Bailey on a plane to Athens airport, where she was met by our friend Akis, who operates a pet taxi service. He oversaw the cargo handling for Bailey and then delivered her to Lynette’s home, where there was a very excited reunion all round.

Adorable Bailey — easy to see why Lynette missed her so much

Bailey homeboarded briefly with courier J. Here she is sitting between house dogs Bonnie (L) and Pugsley (R) — all three waiting for a treat

If Bailey ever needs another home, please let me know. .. I am serious…that dog is wonderful.
Don’t suppose Lynette will let her go again!
The first photo of Bailey, so gentle and so kind. –Curt
She is adorable and luckily Lynette has her back.
Patient and beautiful Bailey – I hope she can STAY with Lynette although I think Bailey will always have a home because she’s just so adorable and calm.
