If it's very small or a young puppy you can carry it with you in a travel cage. If it's a big dog, it has to be checked in and it will travel with your baggage. If you are not flying with the animal - you would contact the airline that goes to the destination. They will tell you where to deliver the dog - usually a separate building at the airport. You will pay the fee and they will put the dog on the flight. Delta airline has something called a "Pet Pack" they will transport the dog from the holding area to the plane (right before it takes off) in an air conditioned vehicle so they dog won't be waiting outside in the hot weather. The last time I sent a dog from Houston to Reno it cost $185 But with higher fuel prices and other increased costs, it will probably be higher. Your dog will need a travel cage. Depending on where you are transporting your dog to, you may need to supply shot records and tags to customs. Also they will often require a quarantine period anywhere from, 2 weeks to 2 months, especially if they have problems with rabies and other out breaks in their country,or neighboring countries. Bringing your dog back from that country can be just as difficult. The States (at least used to), require a period of quarantine as well. Along with all the medical information to prove maintance of shots and health. A flight is noisy, cold and physcially hard and generally scary for the dog. I've had a dog and cat go through this process two times ( which means four quarantines) and it can be a great hardship for the animal, especially if they are high-strung, but any animal will suffer from the confinment and loose of your companionship. It takes a long time and much work and effort to help your dog over the after effects. IT is worth all the hardship, effort and time if you are going to be spending years in this country, but if your going for a few weeks you need to verify that your dog wouldn't be required to suffer a quarantine before you get to the airport. It may not be worth his suffering two flights and periods of quarantine with strangers (both other animals and humans) for a short period of time in a country you are not planning to live in. I strongly recommend you check with customs regarding their regulations concerning transporting animals into the country you are planning to travel to, and also our regulations to re-enter this country before you confirm any plans for you pets.

A pregnant dog can travel on an airplane?

I would not take a pregnant dog on a plane. And a 60 lb dog would have to ride in baggage. Also the air is thinner as the plane goes higher. Granted it is controlled but still not a good idea.


Can dogs fly by themselves on an airplane?

No, sorry, but they have to have a person responsible with them, or their owner. What if the owner isn't at the airport where the dog lands in the plane? Then where will the dog go? Who will watch the dog on the plane?
