Helen and her gorgeous Cocker Spaniel Bear travelled from Australia to London with Petraveller. Read their international pet relocation story.
Bear became part of the Korczynski family as soon as they arrived in Australia from the United Kingdom. Helen recalls, “We had always wanted a Cocker Spaniel. When we visited some puppies, Bear and my son were drawn to each other from the very beginning. We knew immediately that he was going to be our dog. We visited him every week until we could bring him home. He is very loved by all of us.”
Like most Cocker Spaniels, Bear is a beautiful and fun-loving doggy. Helen says fondly, “He is well-behaved, loving and playful. He has a deep love for water. Every evening he sits by the back door and nods his head up and down for us to throw his bowl of water onto the lawn. He loves to chase the water and sniffs around for ages.”
Bear is much like a teddy bear that he is named after. Helen says with a smile, “He loves cuddles, kisses and belly strokes just like a teddy bear. Bear loves his food so much he gobbles it up like a piggy, and it’s gone in seconds!”
The Korczynski family had relocated to Australia from the UK on work, and they were now returning home to the UK with their beautiful dog Bear. Helen was very concerned and nervous about sending Bear on such a long flight. She reached out to Petraveller to assist with the pet relocation from Australia to London. Helen says, “I contacted a few pet transport companies but decided to use Petraveller as they sounded more professional and organised than the others. I loved the fact that I was updated on Bear’s whereabouts and how he was very regularly. Petraveller answered all my questions and concerns immediately.”
Bear was an absolute darling during the long flight, and he reached London in good spirits. He has settled in well in his new home in Wales and is now busy exploring new places to play. Helen is happy with Petraveller’s service during the relocation. She says, “I was apprehensive about how Bear would be feeling. I also felt I chose the best company to look after him after the research I did. Everyone on the Petraveller team was fantastic from start to finish, and I have been recommending them to other lateral transfers living in Australia.”
Thank you, Helen, for trusting us with your precious Bear. Here’s to more adventures in the UK!
