After a veeeeeery long wait and a six month stay in boarding, Hopper and Stella finally travelled to Mauritius! Preparing for their travels took a little bit longer than usual, as we had to wait a few months for the right paperwork to get Hopper safely to Mauritius, but it was oh so worth the wait and we're sure they'll enjoy life (back) in Mauritius! 🐰🐶

Happy bounces after the first walk on Scottish soil! Husmen arrived with us from the direct Turkish Airlines flight from Istanbul to Edinburgh, and he either couldn't be happier about his arrival here... or maybe he isn't quite used to the feeling of wet grass on his paws just yet!

He was the absolute sweetest dog ever and he completely stole our hearts, and we wish him all the best in Glasgow!

After spending a few years in Scotland, it was time for Maggie to fly back to Canada! She absolutely stole our hearts here and put a smile on our faces showing off all the cool tricks she could do - we really wish she could have stayed with us a bit longer, but she had a flight to catch! Maggie flew on the direct Edinburgh to Calgary flight with WestJet ✈
