Lovely review from happy customer

Steven did a fantastic job for me of bringing my new German Shepherd pup up from Oxford to North Yorkshire.
He kept me updated throughout the day, I will definitely be recommending him.

After two whirlwind days on the road, I couldn't help but smile as I sank into my favorite chair. A staggering 800 miles traveled, all for the joy of delivering a lively puppy and a trio of adorable guinea pigs to loving homes. From the lush landscapes of Norfolk to the historic streets of Oxford, then onward to the charming vibes of York and Bradford, each mile was filled with excitement and anticipation. I even managed to squeeze in a pitstop in Liverpool before making my way back to Essex and finally home. As the day comes to a close, I decided that a well-deserved beer and a cozy night's sleep are in order. Tomorrow, the adventure begins anew!

So today has driver and business founder Steve driving from near Liverpool down to Essex, then via a second pick up in Suffolk before heading back to base.
Reportedly the roads are foggy and Steve will be turning his phone off to avoid distraction. If you have an urgent need or message then please DM the page and I’ll (wifey, “Hi!” 👋) help if I can. Otherwise Steve will respond to voicemails and other messages once he’s done driving.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation 🙂

Today has been nothing short of an adventure! We kicked off our journey in the charming town of Norfolk, excited and full of energy as we set our sights on picking up a delightful puppy in Oxford. With the little furball bouncing happily in the backseat, we drove north, laughing and singing along to our favorite tunes. Before we knew it, we found ourselves outside York, where the picturesque scenery beckoned for a quick photo stop. Then, we hopped back in the car and made our way to Bradford. As I prepare for my trek to Warrington in the morning, followed by a zigzag through Essex and Suffolk, I can't help but smile. What a whirlwind of the two day! Phew! Here’s to more adventures on the horizon! 🌍✨

Driver Steve is currently on his way to York with a young puppy so it’s a solo trip to ensure the pup gets the most positive calm experience possible and with utmost care for minimising risk of infection from other patients 🐾
His journey back tomorrow will see him calling via the Liverpool area and into Essex before heading back to base in Norfolk. Is there anyone else who has need for pet transportation along the route? 🛣️
If you have interest or are trying to make contact with Steve, please give him time to focus on his journeys. He will respond to any messages when he is safely parked up later today - likely to be mid afternoon onward. Thank you ☺️

On Sunday, I received an urgent call from a concerned cat 😻owner. Their beloved feline friend had sustained serious injuries and was receiving critical treatment at The Veterinary Hospital & Surgery . The situation quickly escalated, necessitating a transfer to a specialist in Fakenham The Grove Veterinary Hospital & Clinics both of these centers have amazing staff.

By Monday, we had arranged the transportation, ensuring the cat was comfortable during the journey to the vet. Just today, we received uplifting news—the owner requested us to collect their furry companion, who was now ready to return home.

After carefully reuniting the cat with its owner, we took a moment to reflect on the journey—a reminder of our commitment to animal care and the importance of timely referrals and out-of-hours services. The joy in the owner’s voice was a testament to why we do what we do. see our website for all our reviews.

I am excited to offer my dog car for sale as I pursue a van for new adventures.
This car represents reliable transportation, with an MOT valid until 17th October 2025. I have diligently addressed all faults:
- A major exhaust leak has been fixed with a new central exhaust.
- The near and offside rear tyres, previously close to the legal limit, have been replaced.
- An oil leak from the gearbox has been resolved with a new seal and oil.
- The reverse lamps, once non-functional, are now working perfectly.
- A full service has been completed alongside the MOT, ensuring it runs smoothly.
- A new heated windscreen and wipers enhance visibility, and the air conditioning provides comfort during journeys.
- With 201,987 miles, this diesel vehicle has a full fuel tank (still being used) and a new clutch switch.
This van features two spacious cages that comfortably hold two large German Shepherds. You can easily remove the centre section, transforming it into a generous single kennel, as I did for a Great Dane.
The cages, equipped with a fan for fresh airflow (see photo), allow you to slide the glass up and down. This vehicle, formerly a dog warden van, has been serviced regularly, and I have continued that tradition since acquiring it.
I'm asking for £2000 or the nearest offer, reflecting the investment I’ve made into this fantastic vehicle.
Yes, it has some rust on it and a couple of small dents, but I'm sure you'll agree it looks good for its age.
Thank you!

The Unseen Burden of Dog Rescues and volunteers getting them rehomed.

Today, I embarked on a long journey — 440 miles and 11.5 hours of driving, with breaks, of course. My destination was not a holiday retreat or a quaint café; rather, I traveled from Dereham to Wisbeach to collect a rescue dog, subsequently delivering it to Wincanton in Somerset. This experience has led me to reflect deeply on the issue of animal welfare and the role of local councils in addressing the growing crisis of abandoned and neglected dogs. (There are a lot)

The Reality of Dog Rescues/pound pullers.

Every day, there are individuals dedicated to the noble cause of rescuing dogs, driven by compassion and a sense of duty. Yet, the stark reality is that many rescue organizations are often overwhelmed by the sheer number of animals requiring help. Upon visiting various rescue shelters, it becomes glaringly clear that these facilities are often at full capacity. As a result, many dogs find themselves at the mercy of dog warden kennels. After a mandatory seven-day hold period, the fate of these dogs hangs precariously in balance—either they can be euthanized or the warden must bear the costs of housing and caring for them until a suitable home is found.
This cost is incurred by the warden.

The Role of Councils
This leads me to a crucial point of contemplation: Should local councils be doing more? It is apparent that relying solely on the goodwill of the public and dedicated volunteers is insufficient. The responsibility for animal welfare should not rest solely on the shoulders of concerned citizens. It's time for councils to step in and take a more proactive role.

Addressing the Root Cause
Local councils can implement awareness campaigns on pet ownership responsibilities, facilitate spaying and neutering programs, and provide support to rescue organizations. Moreover, increased funding for animal shelters and rescues would enable these facilities to accommodate more dogs and reduce waiting times for care.

Collaboration with Rescues- (councils please don’t expect everyone to make these connections!)
Another vital step would be for councils to establish partnerships with local rescue groups. By creating a cooperative framework, resources can be pooled, and efforts streamlined. Working together can provide the necessary infrastructure to better manage the influx of abandoned dogs and enhance the services offered to both animals and the community.

A Collective Responsibility
The plight of abandoned dogs is not just an issue for rescue organizations and compassionate individuals; it is a societal problem that calls for collective action. Local councils, as representatives of the public, must recognize their role in safeguarding animal welfare. By stepping up, they can alleviate the burden on volunteers and ensure that no dog must face the dire choices imposed by overcrowded shelters or dog wardens not having room for them and having to call on volunteers to rehome them.

Conclusion
As I reflect on my journey today, I am filled with both admiration for the tireless efforts of dog rescuers and frustration at the inaction of local councils. Together, we must foster a more compassionate society—one where every dog has a fighting chance at a loving home, and where the responsibility for their well-being is shBBC Radio NorfolkhBBC NorfolkrEDP 24:Dereham Timesouncils answer the call?
