Im getting a 2 year old siberian husky but the breeder lives in brazil so I was wondering how much it would cost to ship an adult dog from Brazil to the US? I live in california.

Answer
I took a flight with my standard poodle from Anchorage, Alaska to Dallas, Texas and back. The airfare for him was $50 each way. You also have to pay for or have an approved crate and have the pup vet-checked. There's a form that has to be filled out attesting that the pup is free of disease and has had the proper vaccinations.

If I were you I'd contact the breeder to find out if he's shipped animals before. If so, ask him what the costs will be.

Hoping to fly my dog from Tampa to Dallas- help?

:)

I have never flown with my dog before, but plan on doing so in the next few weeks. I am flying from Tampa to Dallas, and have a Shiba Inu / Chow mix that weighs about 55-60 lbs. I was planning on finding a crate that fits under a window seat for Southwest Airlines, which is 19"L x 14"W x 8.25"H.
What I am wondering is, will a dog of her weight fit in a crate of that size? She's a medium sized dog and can be easily picked up, but am worried that I will buy the crate and then find out she does not fit. HELP!

Answer
a 55 lb dog will not be allowed in the cabin, only in cargo. I believe the weight limit for in cabin is like 15 maybe 20 pounds, if that.

no crate that a dog that size could fit in will ever fit under a seat. any animal must be able to stand up and turn around completely. the smallest pet carriers are the ones that fit. nothing larger.
