I need advice
Is there any transport agencies that are real and actually do transport pets as I want to know if im not being scamed.
And what payment processe they have so I know if its real and trustworthy.
I know about Western union and the others are used by scam artists. But if there are some actual real pet transport agencies and a real payment what would it be.
As I am currently talking to a lady in Ireland and she said she is happy for me to pick up my puppy at her address but im in the uk so suggested to send my pup to me and I want to test her out to see if its all real or a scam.
Please help.

The best way for us to tell you is if you post some of the emails you received from the "lady" and the transport company.

There are legitimate pet shipping companies out there, and yes, there are breeders that do ship animals. But for every legitimate breeder you encounter, you will encounter about 20 scammers. And with a legitimate breeder that ships animals, you can expect to pay at least 1,000 dollars to receive an animal. If you are talking about an English Bulldog, you can make that 2,000 dollars. A legitimate transport company will accept payment with a major credit card.

Unfortunately, the truth is that if you have to ask, it is most likely a scam. Again, if you post some of the emails we can probably tell you pretty quickly.
