August was a record-breaking month for Eurotunnel Le Shuttle with the largest number of pet crossings to date - a total of 54,501.
Summer 2022 also set a record for pet travel on the service as a whole, with some 98,000 journeys across the summer holidays in July and August.
This takes the total volume of pets carried on Le Shuttle to more than 3.7 million since 2000.
A survey of existing Eurotunnel customers who have travelled with a pet in the last three years found that 61.5% regularly take their dog on holiday with them.
Many customers said that they choose Eurotunnel over ferry travel for the ability to stay with their pet throughout the journey, making it less stressful. Another key reason is that the journey is by far the quickest method to get to mainland Europe.
