Thought you coudl get a direct ferry ? Seem to remember a top gear special doing this but route may be out of use now.

Anyone any idea best route is, or done this ? Need to pick a bulldog up from Oslo.

Looks like i maybe in for a long drive.

 

Used to get the boat from Newcastle, that was a while ago though.

 

That was my first thought and can't find it anywhere.

 

Just cunt it round in a Merc SLR and sling the pooch on the passenger seat for the return trip... the car was the quickest way according to Top Gear.


Cheers,
Grant

 

I think that ferry stopped a few years ago
Your best bet will be to fly.

 

Not an option i tranport dogs via road. Customer wants his dog brought to the uk by road. Never driven there before so no idea.

 

Road trip

 

Yes mate, Looks like it will be a long one

Nice dog, this is my sisters fella's one.



And here's the slut puppy Lucy.

 

Nice!

 

Nice Phil

The dog i'm collecting is sent all over europe and scandevia to be used as stud. Starting to like AB's more and more. Though with 3 bullies of my own anothers out of the question

 

Quite nice dogs tbh, the one you linked looks a big fella.

An old workmate has a AB was around the size of the one you linked when he was 2.

I find the Bitches to be docile (well the ones I have seen) and not bothered about other dogs, the Dog however dislikes other breeds. To be expected in some ways, his owner keeps him in check tho.

That was my first port of call Rick.

Have to get two ferries it seems so sorted.

 

He has awseome dogs the bloke im picking up for. He is a judge amd travels europe judging. Is in finland this weekend.

 

send a PM to mark 1 here on PF.he has taken a ferry from immingham to brevik in norway a couple of times

 

As above, the only direct ferry option is the cargo ferry from Immingham to Brevik.

Other options include ferry from Harwich to Esbjerg, then plenty of options from there, Copenhagen-Oslo, Fredrikshavn-Oslo, Hirsthals-Larvik, Hirtshals-Kristiansand or take the road through Denmark and Sweden.

I've driven all the way for the last 2 years when I've been over, used the channel tunnel and ferry between Denmark-Germany (Rødby-Puttgarden). The ferry from Harwich to Esbjerg is takes a long time and is very expensive not to mention boring, used this in 2008 when I drove the Escos to Ford Fair.
