Large dog as baggage

[mella l]

In September 2010 I was flying out of Oakland on Hawaiian Air. As I removed my suitcase from the car a taxi pulled up behind us. Out comes a woman with a beautiful white dog about 30 pounds perhaps. This person was using a cane and holding a leashed dog and trying to manage a legal sized case and not a brief case. As I had only one bag I offered to take her also. Getting to the Hawaiian Ticket counter is a small feat with luggage as it is quite a way into the terminal and up a carpeted ramp. She was very well spoken, grateful for the assist and very professional.

We got to the ticket counter and I had her go first. I noticed while waiting my turn how well mannered the dog was as the woman and her agent were going thru the paper work. As we waited in the pat down and feel up line we got to talking. She had broken her foot and needed the cane for support until it healed. I commended her on the behavior of her dog and learned it wasn't hers. I came to learn it wasn't her dog and she has a business as a carrier for pets. She treated it like her pet. Needless to say I told her I would be moving over one day and asked how to get in touch. I was given her business card and an explanation of her services. She is Ruth Wyland of Akona Pet Relocation Services.

She spoke highly of Winston and Jaci Kapua whom we contacted early in our relocation. Their business Little Friends Pet Care another who will meet your pet and walk it thru quarantine at the airport and care for it until you arrive.

I would use Ruth Wyland's of Akona Pet Relocation services and feel confident in recommending her to others. I asked Ruth about another service and she spoke well of a Honolulu couple who do this same service. Both these people have done this business for years.
