Maria, a carnival enthusiast who loves to travel with her Border Collie, Leo, was planning to relocate to Cologne. The bustling city life appealed to Maria but she did not want to expose Leo to public transport or stress him out during the move so she turned to HappyLocate for domestic pet relocation services in Cologne. We handled every detail of Leo's trip including his EU Pet Passport and all health documents, as well as ensuring to take care of local pet regulations such as Hundesteuer (Dog Tax), leash laws, and where Leo would be able to run off-leash in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Since we were experts in pet relocation Germany, HappyLocate was able to concentrate on her new life while we took care of all the logistics. Leo traveled by Deutsche Bahn train with a secured muzzle (mandatory for larger dogs) and half-fare ticket. For local travel, we helped Maria with step-by-step instructions for using public transport (KVB), where larger dogs need both a ticket and a muzzle. Then to her new home in Cologne, HappyLocate provided specialized pet taxi service ensuring that Leo is relaxed and happy.
We know that your pet is part of the family, and we treat them as such through our dog relocation services and cat relocation services.
Contact us to make your move to Cologne an enjoyable one for you and your furry friend.
