Yes we used a company and they have all the forms for us. It cost an absolute fortune but we didn't have to worry about anything.

Oh my gosh I know. Ours did too. But honestly, with everything we had to deal with paperwork-wise, we thought it would be best to have someone else handle it.

I'm so nervous about the, on the plane. And I just found out that they'll have a layover in Frankfurt  :(

We're flying them out of Philly, and I thought there would be an airline who would have a direct flight, but BA won't fly pug dogs  ::)

I wish they could teleport.

Trust me, it is SO much worse for you than them.  Really.

Not sure if you used a pet relocation company or not. We had to because we have two pugs that were moving and I'm worried about them flying.

But our pets travel agent told me about this form....I wanted to make sure you know about it. Do we do it before or after we get there?

You do it before you go, takes about 10 days for them to process. I had to do it for moving our belongings and there's a space for any animals too. I just put the dogs microchip  number on the form

We will see what travel dates they give me. My best friend lives in Miami and we want to stay with her a few days and then fly out from there straight to Heathrow. I still have to ship all our stuff. We put it on hold with how slow things had become. We take the dog to Dallas tomorrow and then when we get back it's all go from then I guess! Stil have everything crossed for an approval. No return of the IHS fee so that's a good sign.

How are things going with the dog, we have that to do as well, it's a minefield
