Big Day for Kenai, Lola, Boni and Jacko

Today was The Day for Kenai, Lola, Boni and Jacko. They were flying to their new homes in The Netherlands.

But getting them there was a pretty stressful event this time...

The dogs were already adopted some time ago, but were awaiting a flight with which they could go. As dogs need to acompanied by a passenger, also when they fly in a cage as “luggage”, CAS is always looking for volunteers who fly to The Netherlands (or Germany). This time CAS and HzH found a volunteer, but she was flying only 2 days later.

So Thursday morning, the 2 foster families and Weston Kennels in Cómpeta were asked to take the dogs to the vet, get the passports ready, and get them chipped. One dog needed a second shot of vaccinations, so could not go. Fortunately, we found a replacement.
Anyway, after a lot of phone calls, e-mails and organizing by Jane (the VP of CAS), all dogs were ready to go.
Kenai and Boni stayed overnight, and Lola and Jacko were picked up early on Saturday morning.

But…. the reward is big. Four happy families in The Netherlands were waiting anxiously at Amsterdam airport with lots of water, cookies and attention for their new family members.
