The second half of the journey, back to Kelowna, was smooth and uneventual. We flew back via Westjet who take Otter in the hold as he's too big to sit in the space under the seat in front of you.
You check in as per normal baggage and then his kennel goes through security- did have a brief worry that everyone was so relaxed about him that they might forget to put him on the plane, but did hear a little whimper before they closed the door so rested easy on the way back. (NB, another great flight, you go out over downtown Calgary (skycrapers etc) and fly in over Silver Star and Vernon and south over Kalmalka Lake, Wood Lake and Duck Lake. I could see the top of the hill we live near, Predator Ridge Golf course but our house was over the other side)
Shaun met me at the airport and we were finally able to release the hound in the car park and promise no more flying for a while! Fortunately Otter was equally enthusiatic with Shaun as with his mum!
Took Otter back to the house where Nina (Rik and Janneke's dog) was soon a smitten kitten with the dashing new arrival from the old country....although still has a lot to learn about Otter's ball obssession!
