    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.

    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

    B@stards

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

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

    How does a dog dial your phone number?

    Can you elaborate on what exactly this service does and how much it costs?
