Longdog Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Hi RichFer We're from just south of teesside, near Loftus. Moved up in December. Great but you're right the kennels aren't good. Luckily ours was the only dog so I put her in a bottom kennel, like you lifting her up to the top ones would have been neigh on impossible. Good luck with your move Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 I remember when we'd go on family holidays south on the old P&O ferries - their kennels were horrible things, pretty much exposed to the elements. We used to put the dog in them at the start of the journey, then take her for ' a walk' on deck an hour or so later... then me and my sis would keep look out while my ma smuggled the dog into the cabin. We did this all the time, pretty much hassle free. Obviously we had our own cabin and the dog was well behaved - and fully house-trained I might add...

JustMe Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Perhaps all those concerned with the location of the kennels on the Northlink ferries could write to our MSP asking if some better arrangement could be found before the new contract for whoever wins it is put in place. Very easy for non dog owners to forget that this is a serious issue for some passengers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
