o there ,
My husband got an offer and most probably we are coming to Abqaiq in 2 months time. We have 2 Labradors and I would like to know that if anyone bring their dogs from Ireland to Saudi?
Also I would like to know what is best way to bring dogs to Saudi? Would it be better if I bring them with us or to arrange transportation company after our arrival to Saudi?
Any recommendation of transportation company?

Thank you
Sinem

Hi Sinem,

I am in the process of doing the same. I would recommend contacting multicargo in Dublin airport (ask for Ciaran). There were recommended to me by our vets in Dundrum and so far I have been very impressed. I would also hire an agent to meet the dogs on the other side. We are dealing with purrfect pets in dammam and so far so good. It's expensive but at least you'll have piece of mind. Have they had their shots yet?

I will send you an email with more details. Send me your email address.

Delighted to see more Irish coming out

Louise

Correction! Puurfect pets turned out to be a nightmare. In the end we brought the dog in through Riyadh via Expat logistics. They were superb and got the import licence within 2 days. The dog is here 3 weeks now and is happy out. There are decent sized gardens here with all family homes and loads communal parks and space to walk around.
