Air TravelEach airline has different rules/regulations regarding air travel for pets. Air travel for pets is resticted at certain times of the year (due to the heat). There are also restrictions related to the size of the dog (i.e., can it travel with you or must it travel as cargo?).

Please do your research before you travel with your JR. There are also steps you should follow as you travel (tips, safety ideas, etc).

Try to make sure you take your JR inside the cabin with you. You will have to make arrangements in advance with the airlines and you may also want to discuss the pending trip with your vet.
