He was so loving, smart and just a sweet baby & had so much life still in him & he didn't look 12 years old or act like a senior dog. He passed on May 21,2026 exactly a month away from his 13 birthday. He passed from congestive heart failure. He was our sweet baby boy that we LOVED so very much and he left behind his Daddy, Mommy and sister Chloe who is a 14 year old Papillion. They loved each other so much too and they were partners in crime. Resting Rainbow took care of Sammie's remains and was so respectful too. When we went to pick him we walked in and their place was so nice and very clean too. They have all options for you fur baby. We asked where Sammie was cremated at and they showed us. They didn't hide anything from us. We chose a private cremation. And seeing it all put our minds at ease. The two gentlemen that work there were so kind too. You speak to the owners too and they go over everything with you. They are a married couple and so very kind and understood what we were going through. They understand due to they lost their baby and they knew how it felt. That's why they opened their own place. Thank you Resting Rainbow for all your kindness and understanding. You made this easier on us at such a heart breaking time. Thank you again Christine & Steven

Do NOT use Blue Collar Pet Transport! I ignored my gut and the negative reviews, and I deeply…read moreregret it. We needed to move Ozzie, a berna-doodle from FL to TX and found Blue Collar on-line. I hired them to transport a sick/vulnerable dog, Ozzie, who has chronic Bordaella and an IGA deficiency (translation: catches anything & everything and gets really sick), while I flew to visit my sick Mom. The sales manager promised a professional, private, direct-route transport with no unplanned stops and our harness staying on for the entire trip (it's a contract line item). The pre-trip planning went fine, but the day of the transport was a disaster. First, the driver showed up almost an hour late. Second, after leaving with Ozzy we watched the AirTag (Pro-Tip = put an Air-tag in your Dogs collar/harness) make a 40-minute stop at a random spot off the route to TX. Concerned, I called the driver who initially didn't answer. When she finally did answer, the excuses started ("I was stopping for gas" ...For 40 minutes? "I was visiting my mother's grave" ...Is she buried in someone's front yard because there is no Cemetery anywhere near where you were? Not to mention that her stopping at a grave was clearly not a planned stop in the contract), and 3) At some point, Ozzy's harness was inexplicably removed and put back on backward (in violation of the contract they had me sign and why? What was she doing with my dog?). That was enough to earn a bad review, but that was when it got even worse. Realizing I had a problem with the driver, I called the sales manager for help. I explained the situation, admittedly I was concerned. He listened for a minute and then proceeded to call me "too uptight," cancel the trip, and hang up on me. A few minutes later, he seemed to realize the error of his ways and texted back apologizing for hanging up on me ("It was out of character of me" ...maybe?) and promised a full refund. Ozzy was returned (freaked out...what were they doing with my dog?), and I had to cancel my flight. Later, I was contacted by a customer complaint specialist (seems odd that you need a full-time person to handle complaints, unless you have A LOT). "Hunter" listened to my story/gathered documentation, expressed regret and concern, and promised the owner would contact me to "make it right." As of the date of this review, 10 days later, I've been ghosted...No Refund, No Calls/Responses from anyone. I had to cancel my plans to visit my mom and figure out an alternative method to get my immunocompromised dog home. It cost me lots of extra expenses, cancellation fees, and wasted time. Looking back more deeply at the reviews and info on these guys (12 complaints to the BBB!), I should have trusted my gut and avoided Blue Collar Pet Transport. I also realize that this review will almost certainly be met with a generic pasted "response" or an aggressive, insulting note from the owner blaming me for something to deflect blame from their lousy service (during and after). It is worth it to let others know to Save yourself the pain and avoid this company at all costs! Update: 8/3/25 Don't be deceived by the small businessman act. Richard Hardy is a Bully to those around him (including customers), and Blue Collar Pet Transport doesn't honor their contracts or stand behind their work. He has tried to attack, insult, and blame my wife and I for their mess. He tries to make is seem like an emotional comment made at a difficult time (What were you doing with my dog, off-route, for 40+ minutes, with the harness off, after you left my house anyway?!) completely exonerates Blue Collar Pet Transport from their lies and failures. Yes, lying is sad, but "I'm rubber, you're glue" doesn't work here Richard...I've got RECEIPTS, and I'm NOT going away.
