I needed Ginger, my small Chihuahua, shipped from Minnesota to Louisiana. I put an ad for service on U-Ship and received several bids. After looking them over, and checking references and difference in prices, I selected the one that best fit my budget and the one I thought could get the job done to my satisfaction. I was not disappointed. The experience turned out to be a very positive one. Ginger was picked up from my daughter in Minneapolis, MN, traveled in the passenger cabin with the shipper, and handed to me at the Shreveport, LA. airport. The little dog was happy when she arrived, and I knew she had been treated and handled very well. I would definitely use U-Ship again, and would try to use the same shipper.
