Couriers Glenn and Shane made a recent journey to Greece with pets on board. On the way, the stopped off to collect a pair of Greece-bound cats in the Netherlands, and delivered three cats and a Mini-Poodle pup to their families in Italy.
Marshmallow, Tuppence and Pipo, 3 cats from Ireland to Italy
Silvia’s three marvellously monikered cats started their journey in the Republic of Ireland. They travelled with us to Lombardy in Italy for a reunion with her. Silvia told us: “I love them immensely so I’m grateful they are with you and doing well.”
Gorgeous Pipo
Splendid Tuppence
Mojo, a puppy from the UK to Italy
Darling youngster Mojo travelled with us from her breeder in Stowe by Chartley to Carpi in Italy, where Claire was excitedly waiting for her. Claire sent us wonderful photos of Mojo’s arrival.

Tao Tao and Xiao Hu, 2 cats from China to Greece via the Netherlands

Both cats have fabulous markings
They proved to be very relaxed passengers
Rescue dogs travelling from Greece to the UK
With our outbound passengers all delivered to their families, we were ready to meet the rescue dogs joining us for the homeward journey from Athens. These lovely hounds are from the Lemnos Dog Shelter, and their journeys to their new UK homes were organised by the Starlight Barking Trust.

Like courier Richard here, all our couriers are taking health and safety precautions that include the wearing of face masks
So sweet
Aren’t they.
I am dazzled by the constant to and fro of your passengers. Who knew (apart from you of course) that pets did so much travelling.
We certainly weren’t expecting to have quite so many travellers at the moment!
If I stand up like Sovereign, I put my paws on the bipeds’ shoulders!
I hope they all settle in quickly.
Ha ha, and put some pressure on those shoulders too!
People are so grateful to have the company of animals during this crisis – I hope it stays that way!!
Thankfully most pets are being reunited with their peeps!
What sweet animals on the move………….all of your couriers have the magic touch but it looks like Shane gets the award for being quite the “dog whisperer” !
Hugs, Pam and Teddy too
Shane does get though to them!
Looks like you had quite a good looking group.
Only the best on our trips 😉
This was a marvelous collection of photos of your travelers, and I also loved the picture of your 3 vans and the couriers themselves! Another super group!!
Stay safe, my friends.
Don’t often get so many vans and couriers together so it was great to have that photo!
Oh, what a great team you are and a great set of passengers too 😀 Double Pawkisses for a Happy and Safe travel ahead 🙂 ♥
It’s not a bad combination!
They are all beautiful passengers, Annie! Safe travels ahead! <3 🙂
Thanks Lavinia!
A big well done to Shane & Glen for the excellent work getting fur babies & owners reunited. Such cute faces here, look at little Mojo!! Cute name too. I love golden retrievers & labs so Baloo has stolen my heart as well with his little dinosaur. That’s so sweet.
Caz xx
Shane and Glenn are a great team. They both just loved Baloo and her dinosaur!
What a beautiful crew as always.
A gorgeous lot!

You folks are certainly spreading some serious love and JOY!!!
I am looking into getting a rescue dog from Greece and was worried about their journey to the UK. It is reassuring to see how well looked after they are, and the happy reunions! ( I have something in my eye…) x
Hope you manage to rescue your dog and get that ‘something’ out of your eye 😀
What a moving & wonderful experience it was whilst our group were awaiting our dogs to arrive from Lemnos. We were included throughout their journey while as virtual passengers, having contact & been able to map their progress it was amazing! Shane & Glenn were so good with the dogs it was clear to see the relationships they’d built with them by the time they were delivered to us. Savannah had clearly grown very fond of them & wasn’t impressed when they left her behind with us in her new home! Thank you for making our experience so memorable! ❤️
Delighted to hear you enjoyed the whole experience! We’re sure Savannah got over her disappointment rather quickly 😀
