Love my Cavaliers
Well-known member
I have 4 cavaliers, ranging in age from 14 months to 7 years. We are considering spending the winter in Arizona but I will only go if we can bring all 4 dogs with us. Oliver (7+ years old) is too big to go in the plane cabin with us. He's a strapping 26 pounds - just big with long legs, not overweight. I was wondering if anyone in the states has had any experience with pet transportation companies that will drive your pets to a new destination. Or has anyone had experience with putting dogs in cargo on the plane. We can take 1 or 2 on the plane in the cabin with us, but I hate the thought of putting 2 of them in cargo. It's a more than 3 hour flight from Chicago to Arizona, plus they would be in cargo for longer than that. Do dogs do fine in cargo without being traumatized? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
