What is a good crate for a great dane for travelling by plane?




cody k


my great dane will be about a year old when i fly and i'm looking for a crate that is suitable for a plane.. any help would be greatly appreciated
i do not drive or else i would :( and i planned on flying with him but unfortunately with his size he has to go on a seperate cargo plane. Was going to take the train so i could be with him but they do not take dogs heavier then 70lbs and i'm going half way across canada

Hello,
Great danes are huge dogs, I have one myself. They are gentle giants and the sweetest dogs in the world. Since there so big I'm guessing you need a big crate. The airline rules are that your dog needs to be able to stand up turn around, and lay down in the crate comfortably. Make sure the air lines will allow certain crates, some you can't have.
This one comes in A LOT of different colors and from the front it looks pretty big. Here are some more dog crates for your dog.
This one looks good if your great dane is a smaller one:

These ones are really neat. Make sure the plane allows them:

This is $70 but it will fit your dog:

This is really neat but it's an exersize pen. Call up the people on the plane and ask them to go on the website and see if it can go in there.

Your dog will need a few toys (If the plane allows) to play with on the long ride. This contains water and It's really cool! Be sure to ask if your dog can have it!

My great dane had this. He breaks all of his toys. It took him A LOONG time to break this one!

For the plane ride you should put a blanket or dog bed in the crate for your dogs conmfort. If the airlines allow it.

whats the best dog toy for air travel?

first i want to thank some of you for helping me out with my other air travel question... made me feel a bit better about my baby flying... i just read on the website that she is allowed to have one dog toy in her crate with her... she s too big so she ll be in cargo... she has major seperation anxiety (im not just naming a random disorder she really has it and to a major extent)... this scares me because i know she is just going to freal out and be so scared... of course if i didnt have to bring her i wouldnt... but im moving from CA to PA and theres no other way for us to get there... and i dont want to give her anytihng to calm down because i ve read many things saying it s dangerous during air travel. plus she has a heart mumur.. whats the worst that could happen? if she freaks out to the most whats the worse that will happen? our flight is 7 hours with one lay over. i mean once she sees me all the scare is going to go away and she ll be ok once again right? what toy will calm her?


Answer
no toy will. put a piece of clothing that you wore and havent washed when you go to the airport. I work at the airport and no toy will help the unknown sounds sights and smells of the airports. leave the clothing with your scent on it to calm her. Good Luck and may the airlines have a good day on your travels.
