Good morning,I’ve got some friends here in Portugal who’ve already paid a lot of money for some specialists in worldwide pet movind, in order to sent them 2 english bull dog puppies. yet, it has already passed 5/6 days and they still don’t have any kind of information either about their money, nor pets, nor airline company that may bring the puppies home. Despite my attempts to advise some U.K. associations of animal rights, I haven’t heard from anyone any kind of answer to all the e-mails i’ve already sent. It’s a shame, ’cause we’re suppose to make part of the same European Union, and no one cares about this kind of situations!
