Driver lost and killed my pup
Through CitizenShipper I got an incompetent driver. This driver lost control of my 8 month old German Shepherd puppy who ran across the highway and got hit by a car. CitizenShipper shipper only refunded my $170 registration fee. Their $1000 Pet Protection Guarantee is misleading and only covers unlikely events such as veterinary bills during the trip. The transportation cost me $1450 including the cost of the crate. The driver lost track of my pup, the pup ran across to the highway and got hit by a car. He was found dead on the side of the highway by his heartbroken breeder who drove out in the middle of a snowy night to look for him.

We sincerely apologize if there was any misunderstanding regarding our Pet Protection Guarantee.

We are currently reviewing the driver’s actions to ensure that proper accountability is taken and to prevent something like this from happening again. Although we have refunded your registration fee, we recognize that this does not address the emotional and financial impact of the loss. We are committed to exploring further options to help make this right and will be in direct contact with you to discuss next steps. Please feel free to reach out to us at [email protected], and we will do everything we can to support you through this difficult time.
