    the problem boils down to this... what will you do if one leg refuses to let your pet continue? What will happen if you depend on them not checking something and then they check and your dog is grounded? I would like to say that we check several airlines before moving to Israel and many of them would allow a small enough dog I E. our basenji, in the cabin but they limited the number of pets most of them at around 3 per cabin and they would say that if someone flying who was allergic then your dog or pet had to go in the hold so you didn't really know till you got there. We were lucky to have 2 pets that could be next to each other and they both just sort of chilled and even though it was a hellish flight neither of them seemed at all stressed or bothered and we were able to keep them with us until they actually took them to put on the plane and pick them up almost immediately on landing. I just think unless you're moving the best thing for your pet is to find a way to leave it at home. If you must take the pet then you may be better off paying the extra to have a professional pet travel agency take over all the responsibility and fly your pet for you which unfortunately doesn't usually include in the cabin. I never had an issue flying puppies to their new homes in the cabin with their new owners.

    He is approximately 4 1/2 inches higher at the shoulder than either of the girls. I had a big boy that I showed, Gambit, who is now at the bridge and we thought he was the biggest one ever, judges liked him though. But Kell puts him to shame. So some of his food is going to get cut back and green beans added. Have changed treats to dried chicken breast for all. But he really doesn't get much more kibble than either of the girls. I need more walking too, so that is also on the agenda. I can feel his ribs, he is not the most pleasing B in comformation, but his disposition should be available for transplant to a lot of Bs. A real love. Dawn

    both our dogs took about 2 seconds from walking into the room with the needle to walking back out. jonny just looked at the vet, hansel yelped quickly and on our way we went. i cannot imagine putting them out for THAT. but neither one dislikes going either. they both look at it as an AMAZING chance to smell, jump, chase, visit, investigate,… well you get the idea. they love it there. SO MANY dog food bags to smell. lol

    My vet charged $35 for chipping when I had the pups done last year. It just depends on where you get it done. There are also microchip clinics offered at shows sometimes which usually offer a good deal. I got Nicky's done for free that way back when microchips were still relatively new and they were trying to get people to do it.
