Michael’s cool dude Miniature Dachshund Marcus travelled from Sydney to Auckland with Petraveller. Here’s their pet relocation story.
Michael found Marcus as a puppy in a dingy pet shop. He recalls, “Marcus was a wee puppy and stuck in the pet shop, all miserable. There was no way we could leave him there. Bringing him home that day was the best thing we ever did.”
Marcus is extremely affectionate and hates being on his own. He is not very brave and like any other Dachshund, he barks up a storm. Michael says, “He was named Marcus after the Roman General by my ex-mother-in-law because she thought he had a proud chest. But the truth is that he doesn’t like to be told what to do!”
Marcus and Michael are almost inseparable. Michael says, “Marcus is with me pretty much 24/7 as I work from home. He is just a cool wee dude!” Michael was heading back home to New Zealand after 27 years in Sydney, and he was certain Marcus would move with him. He reached out to Petraveller to help him with Marcus’ pet travel to Auckland. Michael says, “I spent a long time researching pet movers before choosing Petraveller after reading all the reviews. The staff put my mind at ease immediately, and I was not disappointed.”
Marcus is now enjoying his new home in New Zealand. Michael says, “I would not hesitate in using them again or recommending them. Every single staff member I had dealings with went above and beyond. I cannot say thank you enough.”
Thank you, Michael, for trusting us with precious Marcus. Here’s to wonderful new adventures in New Zealand!
