Does anyone know of a place in Los Angeles that sells durable dog kennels for a price lower than most places?

Irving Vas

I'm basically looking to buy a few plastic kennels but I don't want to pay prices like $150 for a large kennel.

Answer
Are there any Walmarts nearby? Years ago I bought a wire crate there that was much cheaper and larger than the one I bought previously at Petco. Or try www.craigslist.org or maybe www.ebay.com or www.amazon.com .

Is it safe for a dog to be on a 5 hour flight?

JennyBri

I am planning to go from Los Angeles to NYC and I want to bring my 4 month old Maltese puppy. Is there anything I should be concerned about? Just because, recently she got her immunization shot and had an allergic reaction and went into anaphylaxis shock, and almost died.

So I just want to make sure that flying is going to be safe for her. Will she be okay? I'm so paranoid!!!

Answer
Thousands of dogs arrive from Europe every year. They are often in the crate for over 24 hours. I'd say she'll be fine.

Im about to get a 4 week old male Husky puppy, Is there any special foods i need? what are some good treats?

Ana Flores

Do i need any special Home? Can it live in the warm temperatures of Los Angeles?

Answer
That is only when better breeders start weaning. It will need puppy milk replacer plus dry puppy chow almost liquified with water. Don't worry about treats. It isn't the end of the world to remove a puppy fromits litter that soon, but it will harm how it relates to other dogs. It really needs continuing contact with other dogs, but only carefully selected healthy ones.

I would buy a small crate. Don't leave it shut up too long, or you will force it to learn to foul its crate.

As long as it has shade and water, it should be OK in the heat. Be3 ready to respond to signs of discomfort.

Can I take my chihuahua on the plane with me?

I am traveling from Los Angeles to San Antonio TX.Oh and what about traveling with birds? (I have one cockatiel)

Answer
I'll answer your second question first - unless absolutely necessary, I highly discourage traveling with birds. Birds are very easily stressed - and excessive stress can literally kill them.

As for flying the Chihuahua - absolutely. You'll need to do several things in preparation:

1. Purchase an airline-certified carrier (as she should be small enough to ride in the cabin with you).

2. Within 10 days of your departure, get a health certificate for interstate travel from your veterinarian. If you're staying for an extended period of time, this will need to be repeated for the flight home.

3. Contact the airline you plan to use, or go to their website - while similar, each airline has its own requirements for pet flights.

4. Make sure your dog (and his/her crate) is properly marked with identification - with contact information for you, and both your departure and destination addresses.

5. Bring a copy of your pets medical/vaccine history with you, in case you need to provide proof of immunizations.

Shipping my dog from Lima, Peru to Vancouver, Canada?

Olivia

I am going to be shipping my puppy from Lima, Peru to Vancouver Canada on July 21st and I was wondering what the best airline is to do it from. Also the cheapest, I want to pay at least under $500 and i know thats possible.She is under 30lbs including the crate weight. If anyone knows any airlines that will ship dogs all year round and that are a reasonable price, please answer. Thanks

Answer
There are no direct flights from Lima to Vancouver. You must use connections with changes of airlines.

Don't accept any flight routing via Bogota, especially anything on Avianca. All luggage arriving in Bogota from Peru is delayed and has to be forwarded on a later flight after you have filed a missing baggage declaration in Vancouver. Transited Mexico City is also risky as all baggage is offloaded and inspected by Mexican Customs. Your dog might die during the waits.

A far safer routing is via San Jose, Costa Rica, with addition stops in San Salvador and Los Angeles. No problems with baggage there. Taca flies that route, switching to Air Canada in Los Angeles.
