    starting a Pet-Taxi Service

    Well after months on the bench I'm now a businesman again.
    I'm now running a special taxi service for cats and dogs. unique idea should make millions.

    Let you know how it goes.

      How does a dog dial your phone number?

        I mistakenly gave my number to a dog and she was on the blower every day for a week.

          Sounds like a great idea. Taxi driver says "get that flea bag out out my taxi!". Having a specialist van is very good. Or for taking your pet crocodile down to the vets.

          However, I'm puzzled as to who uses the service, and how often they need to transport their pets around (apart from vet visitis).

          Is is looking good then Blow Bug ? It sounds different. I guess that if you were in the States, you'd be a millionaire by now.

            I used to drive a taxi - I once got asked if I would agree to take a dog in the car

            "No - no pets allowed (I explained about poeople with allergies, pet hairs etc)"

            "I've got to take it to the vets - I'll put it in its transport box, so it won't drop hairs etc - it'll be very quiet"

            Eventually I relented

            The dog was very quiet

            It was dead

            And had been for about two days

            Half-way to the vets, the smell hit me - it took four days to get the smell out of the taxi

            And I didn't even get a tip

            Good luck with the venture - keep a can of industrial strength deodourant in the van, though

              You really need to be looking for some "value add" to this venture.

              In addition to the pet taxi offer a pet exercise service...tie the feckers to the bumper & bingo! double invoice for the same journey.

              Not certain this business model would work for goldfish or terrapins though
