Keep Hire Cars Free of Pet Debris
Since when did car hire firms change their rules about pets in vehicles? I’ve just returned a hire car that was full of dog hair and smelled more like a kennel.
Don’t misunderstand me. I really love animals but I don’t like having their fur all over my business suits. My family has a dog, a cat, several fish and a wandering hedgehog in the garden. Me and my family all love animals. But when I’ve previously tried to book a hire car that would be used to carry my family and our pets I was told that they didn’t have any suitable vehicles.
On further investigation I ultimately found a car hire firm that did accept pets but only in certain vehicles (estates) and the animals had to be secured behind the back seat. We found this perfectly acceptable and understood the reasons.
You can therefore imagine how I was surprised by the car provided by a well known international car hire firm at Heathrow airport. My colleagues and I had pre-booked our hire car before departing from Frankfurt for our evening flight back to Heathrow. We went to the car hire desk before collecting the car from the parking lo. When we opened the door of the car we were greeted by a warm and unpleasant doggy smell. Not very nice at all.
I was about to return to the desk to complain but one of my colleagues was keen to get going so off we went. It was when I got home that I reallised my suit was coated with fine white dog hairs.
Whoever had used the car before us had clearly let a dog roam about all over the upholstery. When I contacted the car hire firm they assured me that they didn’t allow dogs in their regular saloon cars and only by prior arrangement in other cars specially adapted for animals. Someone had clearly broken their rules and they hadn’t managed to get the car valeted before we took it away. The result was an expensive bill for having four business suits professionally cleaned.

In future we’ll be driving to the airport and using airport parking services rather than rely on smelly hire cars. Top tip: Always make certain that you have adequate travel insurance before you go anywhere.
