Mia

Travel Route – Johannesburg to

Auckland, New Zealand

 

Good evening Marlene Hope you are well. Yesterday was the best day of our lives! On the way to fetching Mia yesterday we received a phone call from Quarantine that one of the pets she traveled with was sick and they were not able to let her go home and we received the news that the country was going on lockdown. So on our way back home Quarantine phoned back we could come fetch her and I definitely shed a tear! When we arrived we were not allowed in due to the Covid 19. We waited for them to bring her and the rest is history. She has settled in really good. She slept with us in the bed under the covers last night which is her favourite. She is purring and talking lots to us. We are just so happy!!!

Travel Route -  Johannesburg to

Dublin, Ireland

Hi Leanna Goldie and Paws have settled in very well thanks and I have attached some photo’s of them and their new hometown. They are very happy and love to be tucked-up warm. They also love their walks every day which is about 3km but sometimes it’s extremely cold (like -5) but they are doing really well. When we picked them up from Dublin they were so happy to see us they cried all the way home for three hours. The photo’s are of them and the area around us where we walk and their new house (ours) is in the middle of the street and houses photo. Please also know that we are very happy and thankful for all you and the team did for us and our two lovely girls and for making this all possible. We will definitely recommend Global Paws to all those we know. Thanks and regards, Grant and Kerry Smith

aboutus

Our journey began in 1989 when a kenneling client from our well-established Snowpine Kennels requested that we transport their furry companion to Europe. Having previously navigated the intricacies of international pet imports for our own beloved animals, we embraced the challenge. With determination, we successfully relocated our first canine friend, and thus, the seed was planted for Global Paws.

As we reflect in the soothing shade of the mighty Oak we've nurtured, observing our team of experts integral to this journey, we are quietly confident that this Oak will continue to mature. The tiny acorns it produces will, in turn, be nurtured into beautiful Oaks.


Passionate about what we do, we are committed to being the very best we can be, ensuring that our motto - HOME IS WHERE YOUR PET IS - remains not just a phrase but a living reality!
