All puppies must be a minimum of 8 weeks old to fly. While not all major airlines provide pet shipping services, Alaska, American, Delta, and United each offer cargo transport services for dogs, as long as airline safety requirements are met. Most have people on staff whose job is to monitor and maintain the animals.

We arrange your reservations for you all you need to provide is the full name, address, and phone number shown on the valid ID of the person who is picking up the puppy. We will provide you with an airway bill number which you will need when you pick up the puppy. Plan to wait a 1/2 hour to a full hour after landing. After you pick up your puppy and have returned home, we would ask that you call us to let us know how the puppy is doing.

We believe the faster you can get them home, the better. If flying is faster than driving, then we recommend flying. So, yes we 100% recommend you fly them home if it’s only going to be a 2-3 hour airplane flight over a 6-12 hour car trip. A flight may be stressful on a puppy, but a long car ride is equally stressful if not even more stressful (and same goes for humans).
