No i haven't, but it doesn't show paintwork swirls and other marks that are more visible on darker colours.

I was just kidding, and yes the black is bad for that. One of our dogs got locked in the garage for 30 minutes (went in without us noticing and we shut the door) and the m hadn't got the cover on. As a result the dog, a pug, who loves going out had her claws on the side at various points around the car. The roof was down so I can only assume she was trying to get in to beep the horn to let us know she was in there. Anyhow there are light marks that I notice but nothing a good detailing shouldn't get rid of.
There are a few things like that which I should attend to before July but not sure I will have time. Hopefully the M will be up to a good enough standard for you all

Haha, like it, sometimes I think it's smart enough to try.

you can from Europe so we flew out of Paris (had two, king Charles and the pug). Did a lot of research and got all the paperwork done etc and when it came to it, it was very easy. You wouldn't have known they were on the plane, just slept like being in the car.z3cade said:I didnt realise you could take dogs on as hand laugage

did they use the toilet in the plane

No they had to stay in the carriers, also a risk of being sucked down the flush!
They were both very good and didn't go at all. They had absorbent padding inside the carriers which we could remove if they did need to. We set their feeding cycle so that their stomachs were empty of food before getting on the plane and they were as good as gold. They then had some water in a cup during the flight if they wanted but weren't really interested, just wanted to snooze. When arriving at Sao Paulo they had a good walk around outside. Then it was another 3.5 hour hop to our city where they had snacks and that's where the photo was taken
The dogs in the cabin have to be under a certain weight and size. they must be able to stand up and turn around in the carrier and be comfortable and fit under the seat in front. Different airlines have different rules and the one we flew with allowed 10KG including the weight of the carrier which was fine for us.
We got them used to the carriers (didn't take much) by replacing their usual bed with them over night. We would leave them open and most of the time when going in to see them in the morning they would both be sleeping in the same carrier. The civil aviation authority rules state the dogs had to be separated on the flight so we were not allowed to sit together, which was a shame, but then that's a blanket rule as they don't know how the dogs will behave so fair enough.
I wasn't happy about them going into the hold so that was the only way I would fly them. They were not stressed at all so it was the best way to do it I think.
