's up all?
There's a good chance I'm going to be rehomeing a dog, next week.
The dog is in CT, and I am in Jo'burg...
I've just had a company email me through a quote and I nearly fell off of my chair at their fee.
Anyone have any connections to pet transport services, or bright ideas on how best to move a large dog up to JHB?
Thanks, N.

Re: Animal Transportation
Is the dog for sale?
I'm looking for a project dog. Preferably one that has IRS.

Re: Animal Transportation
Once again,the best way is to go directly to the airfreight company.They have all the facilities to transport animals,and it'll cost you half the price.
I flew my one Yorkie down from Jhb to PE in January and it cost me R250 excluding the courrier(box).
Phone SAA cargo section.

Re: Animal Transportation
Thanks, Chris.
I've just browsed the SAA Cargo 'site, and gotten their rates.
I'll only know Monday, so I can't make any further enquries until then.
A Yorkie is substantially smaller.
Thanks, N.

Re: Animal Transportation
Seems to be biased towards weight, with SAA Cargo, although dimensions do play a part.
Basic fee plus Express rate per Kg, and conforming to airplane door sizing and regulations.
I did some rough calculations, and I think I could get away with a third of what the transport company quoted me, atleast.
Hoping to hear from the dog owner on Monday morning.

With a little luck, she'll soon be joining my existing troupe of four-legged friends.
