Dad's Dogs

Dad's Dogs provides ground animal transport in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, serving the wider western Pennsylvania region near cities like Erie. Led by Ryan Payne, the team moves dogs, cats, horses, cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs safely between farms, homes, and facilities across varying distances.

The company holds an active USDA APHIS Class T registration as a registered animal carrier, active through May 2029.

Dad's Dogs works with a range of clients, from individual pet owners relocating a family dog or cat to breeders coordinating horse transport and farmers moving livestock such as cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs between properties. Their experience spans small companion animal trips as well as larger multi-species hauls, making them a practical option for herd transitions, breeding programs, or seasonal flock movement. Ground transport is arranged to accommodate different animal sizes and temperaments, with attention paid to the specific handling needs of each species they carry throughout the Pittsburgh area and beyond.
