The Thompson family was relocating to Saudi Arabia with a new engineering position in the Eastern Province city of Khobar, and they had two dogs: Labrador, Lucy and Beagle, Max. The family worried about how strict the country was on public behavior for pets and that finding pet-friendly housing would be difficult. With HappyLocate's domestic pet relocation services in Khobar, we were able to provide a solution for the Thompson family and ensure their dogs had a smooth transition.
We specialize in pet relocation KSA, and we are familiar with the specific rules of the region. We coordinated all required documentation including securing the essential Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture (MEWA) permit that is needed for live animal transport. In addition to the move, HappyLocate prepared their dogs for their journey, whether it was in an IATA-compliant crate via cargo hold in a Saudia flight or in a temperature-controlled vehicle for road travel. We even planned the trip so they could avoid the summer heat embargoes that limit air travel from May-September.
HappyLocate is not just your dog relocation service, we are a pet relocation company that provides familes with guidance on pet-friendly compounds and local veterinary services. Our cat relocation service can assist you with feline companions as well. Our pet taxi service is always available for stress-free local appointments.
Let HappyLocate take care of the logistics so your pet can enjoy their Khobar adventure!
