How to get a big dog out of airport?

Okay, so I have a big 60 pound dog. I want to take her with me on a vacation to Orlando, Florida. There is absolutely no way we could carry her out in a kennel or crate. I was wondering of I would be able to walk her out with a leash or if I would have to get some sort of kennel with wheels.

Answer
Yes, you put the dog on a leash.

How can I make traveling with my dog easier?

I'm planning a trip, either to California (San Diego) Nevada (Vegas) or Alaska (not sure where)

Of course we'd be going by flight, so what is required? A health check for sure, but what else? How
can I make it more comfortable for him? I've never traveled with him before, except by car.

I don't know if this helps, but he's a Rottweiler.. four years old.

BQ- Have you ever traveled with your dog? Was it a good experience? Where'd you go?

Answer
They no longer advocate sedatives for dogs in cargo travelling.

And you cannot take the dog through the airport leashed so he is crated from the moment you enter. (Hence the wheels)

Beyond what good information has been provided, I would seriously avoid travelling anywhere that requires connecting flights.

My aunt travelled (some years ago now) with her poodle - it got lost in the connection and was put on the wrong plane. She did manage to get the dog back a few days later, and the dog was fine, but it sure was upsetting.

And the time of year. Honestly, if its 105 degrees out in Nevada - that plane cargo area is very hot. I would never put my dog on a plane in extreme heat. Dogs have died.

PS: I openly admit I have not flown my dog - and won't. Good luck
