flew british airways, but on reflection I'd have used Qatar Airways because BA do a refuelling stop in bahrain (one more take-off and landing for the dogs to endure than direct with QA)

Doha vets contact details are here: http://dohavets.com/contact.htm

They deal with Airpets quite a lot, so they just speak directly to each other and co-ordinate the whole thing - it's a really good service at both ends.

Another thing - check up on the innoculation requirements, because you have to have a rabies vaccination 1 month (check this with Airpets) before the dog can arrive in qatar.

Like I say, if you need anything drop me a line: 00974 5626405.
