Alaska Air Cargo embargoes Reno, NV for Goldstreak, Cargo and Animal Expres shipments
Notice of RNO Embargo .. please note that Air Alaska Air Cargo has issued an embargo for all GoldSTreak, Cargo, and Animal Express Shipments going into or out of Reno, Nevada.
5 species, 19 pets & animals .. a successful relocation
The task was daunting, as we planned the move of 5 horses, 2 pygmy goats, 5 chickens, 4 dogs, and 3 cats from Calabasas, California to St. Lazare, Quebec last week. The planning took place over a period of two months; involving the team work of three veterinarians in California, our Los Angeles service partner, and our northeast service partners, especially Mersant International for the cross country horse transport by air.
From 12 noon on a Wednesday afternoon to early Saturday morning (3:00 a.m. to be specific)... the 19 pets and animals were moved successfully. We organized the small animals to move first from Wednesday afternoon in California to Newark, NJ by air ... with ground transport from Newark, NJ ... Quebec, with a border crossing at Champlain, NY / Lacolle, Quebec ... with delivery to residence in St Lazare concluding Thursday night.
The five horses moved successfully by air from Los Angeles to Newark, with ground transport from Newark to the Champlain/Lacolle border crossing. The ground transport to St Lazare was concluded at 3:15 a.m. on Saturday morning.
With great thanks to the professionals at the CFIA inspection station at Lacolle, Quebec, and the terrific cooperation of Canadian customs, the move went exceedingly well.
An anecdote: after the chickens were gathered and collected in California, an egg was produced by one of the chickens prior to flight departure. Upon delivery in Quebec, another egg was produced. The relocatees simply stated, "the chickens were not stressed by the cross country and cross border relocation, as eggs were laid in both California and Quebec". And, "thank you for delivering our children to us".
