Flew one of our Goldens from the kennel, never again. A day or two of your time for a partner for a decade or more, no brainer.

Congrats on the new puppy!!! I love Scotties!!! I would also suggest flying there to get your new baby and bringing him home in the cabin with you.

Bought my pup in ST Louis... I paid a puppy concierge to travel with my pup so that she was in the cabin under the seat to Orlando. I didn't know they ever existed.. They will send you photos from the airport and plane and meet you at the gate and hand you the pup. Was so easy on the pup and me.. They even provided the carrier.. Wasn't much different then me buying a ticket and flying to get her. I'm sure you can find them via google and look at recommendations. They even provided the carrier..

There are small family owned companies that will transport your pet by ground transportation in their own personal vehicle. We bought a puppy a few years ago in PA and had him transported to our house in MA. They send you updates along the way and bring your puppy right into the house when they arrive. The cost is in line with transport by air. Plus you don't have to spend any of your time running around. Hope this helps. Enjoy your new puppy.

Or you can find someone to fly up pick them up for you and fly back. Just a thought.

If you want to ensure the safe transport of a new puppy, especially such a small one, my suggestion would be to either fly to NY to personally fly back with the puppy or pay a friend in NY to bring it to you. I fly Southwest Air at least 2x per month and many people bring their small dogs in the cabin with them. You’ll need an approved carrier and the dog can fly with you in the cabin under your seat. Otherwise your option is to fly the animal in the cargo hold and many a dog has died in the plane’s cargo hold. Please consider going to get the animal or have someone bring it to you. Avoid a sad tragedy.

Been traveling with our 11 lb. Puppy 4 times a year. He will need to be in a carrier old by airline. You can find out size of carrier on airlines web site or call them do not assume what you have will work.. [U]All airlines are the same the pet carrier will need to go and fit under seat in front of you during flight. ]You will also need to pay for transporting dog on airline which is about $110.00 per flight.

I have heard several airlines telling owners it is the responsibility of the owner to have all shot records in order for the dog to fly. I would suggest calling the airlines before you book.

When I adopted our dog the rescue had a line of transport volunteers who each drove her a certain distance until they got to a point where we could meet them. I would have gone to get her myself otherwise. I’ve seen dogs in the airport being shipped and the poor things look terrified.

Be careful so many things can go wrong shipping a dog. There are private pilots that will transport dogs not sure of the cost . If it were me I would spend the money on a driver or private pilot. Any thing to keep that poor dog off the airlines

1. I'm sure you cannot fly dogs to Florida, in the hold, in the summer. 2. Please be careful of scammers. Lots of them make pretty webpages, want payment for the dog and the flight...... and there is no puppy. They grab pictures off other breeder's websites. I wouldn't buy a puppy long distance unless I knew the breeder, and no reputable breeder is going to ship a puppy to Florida this time of year. If it's legit don't pay for it until you get there and pick it up.

Many airlines won’t transport animals in the hold in summer

Know anyone driving down? Maybe they'd bring the pup down for you.
Personally I'd fly up and get him. A 7lb tater tot is easy to travel with. |
