  • Has anyone travelled with your basenji (as checked-in baggage) on United Airlines to San Jose Airport (SJC) in California?

    If so, pls. share your experiences… Thx...

  • I have, with no problems. I only fly United or Alaska/Horizon Airlines with my pets. I flew from Baltimore to San Jose. Never had a problem and they always took good care of my pups. Have any specific questions?

    I have never used San Jose, only San Francisco and for airlines only American and Delta.. Years ago Delta offered "Delta Dash" that was counter to counter service… of course I was such a wreck that after flying a couple of my B's as baggage... I will not do it any more....
    But that said, I am told that American, Delta and Continental are some of the best airlines to fly...

  • I have flown from Oregon to San Jose and had a 8 week old pup in my lap the whole way. No problems except for him having gas which really stunk :)
    I had my sharpa bag under the seat but kept him in my lap covered by my jacket and a towel to hide him.

  • i havent flown to where your talking but my caira had a litter of pups and i shipped them from michigan to pa, md, and co. the only problem i had was with the weather but the airline wont take a dog unless a certain degree. but at far as getting there when it was warm enough it was fine.

  • Thanks all, for the responses!!!

    thanks @DebraDownSouth I plan to take him to small claims. I don't want to spend any more time on this, but I also don't want others to be victimized by the same scam.

    Ready to commit myself!!! Hahaha.. Alleycat- so incredibly adorable, I love the look on his face in the first one…might be a hint of mischief in there?! Lol The little black and white bundles get me everytime! I fell in love with breed and wanted a red and white...but after receiving Oakley...it's hard not to have the black and whites melt me. Take lots of pics, it goes by quicker than I remember thinking it would. Love his wide white stripe and his little white mitten foot in the back...he looks overall to be a "cool, laid back type"?! Perhaps it's because I was so used to the panic look as Oakley was panicked by many things back then!

    Our mail man had Basenji as boy growing up. He never really say much drop mail but a short time after we got Jaycee he seen her at door. Jeff is his name knocked at door and ask if he could see her. That may have been best thing that ever happen. Jaycee waits on Jeff everday and always happy to see her. He told us here week or two ago he and his wife never had kids at least not yet he said he would claim Jaycee. Rita Jean

    Sharron, My basenjis came from a family in Owosso Michigan. She is not really a breeder this was her first litter (not sure if she will have anymore puppies she just had her male fixed. She had a litter of five I took two and my son took one so she felt very lucky because that only left two. Although she didn't have any problem getting homes for them Basenjis are hard to find in Michigan.
  • Anyone ever flown w/ B in the cabin?

    I have seen the people who have dogs in the large crates weighed at check in. Only because it was a large carrier. Honestly I would carry her because it gives the appearance that they are lighter then they appear.
