Before you know it, your next vacation will be here, and you definitely don't want to leave your beloved big dog behind. While bringing a small dog on a plane is fairly easy, there's a bit more that goes into bringing a big dog and checking him as cargo. DogVacay's resident pet expert Nicole Ellis, who frequently travels with her Bichon/Miniature Poodle mix, Maggie, gave us some things to keep in mind if you're sending your dog under the plane.
While sending your dog under the plane is definitely stressful — after all, you're putting all your trust in someone else to be sure the crate is secured and transported safely — it's an efficient way to travel, and those who work for the airlines are pros at doing this. So go forth and enjoy your next vacation, big dog included!
