“Cooper loves people more than food and treats.”

 

Here’s the story of stunning Golden Retriever Cooper who loves attention. Pet mum Shelby talks about Cooper and why she chose Petraveller for Cooper’s international pet relocation to Los Angeles.

 

Shelby became a pet mum to Cooper when he was one year old. Shelby shares, “Cooper was a rescue. We found each other in October 2011 and have been inseparable ever since.”

 

Shelby reveals her pet’s personality and says, “Cooper loves people more than food, treats and chasing balls. He will bury his head between your legs – that’s a “Cooper Hug”. He loves attention and needs a little extra when he’s scared or unsure. Cooper is submissive and not over-confident.”

 

Shelby continues, “Cooper doesn’t complain unless he doesn’t get the attention, he knows he deserves, and he’ll bark loud. He is curious about other animals and is friendly. He likes dogs, big and small, and is curious about cats. Cooper doesn’t get aggressive or hurt anyone. He’s gentle and adores kids.”

 

Speaking about Cooper’s health, Shelby cautions, “Cooper has arthritis in his front legs and will be a little stiff after being in a crate for several hours. He will move slowly but will still be bright-eyed and wagging his tail.”

 

Shelby was heading back to her home town in Los Angeles. “It was never an option to leave Cooper behind, I can’t even imagine such a scenario. If Cooper wasn’t in a position to safely make the trip, we wouldn’t be going back,” says Shelby.

 

Shelby started enquiring about pet travel options to move her pet to Los Angeles. Making the journey easy for Cooper was Shelby’s number one priority as she wanted her pet dog to have a safe and comfortable travel experience. Her search led her to Petraveller, and she got in touch with the pet travel company to assist with Cooper’s move to the United States. 

 

Shelby says, “Everyone I’ve talked with at Petraveller understands that it’s not about me, it’s about Cooper, and it’s about making the trip back home as easy as possible for him. Petraveller has been responsive and answered all my questions and even found a way for me to fly Cooper direct from Melbourne to Los Angeles.”

 

We are pleased to say that Cooper had a stress-free flight and landed in Los Angeles in good health and great spirits. Thank you, Shelby, for trusting Petraveller with your fur baby Cooper. We wish you lots of fun, laughter and pawesome adventures with Cooper in the United States.
