It is becoming increasingly difficult to fly your pets on the airlines do to year-round breed restrictions as well as temperature restrictions for some or all breeds on certain routes. Some breeds of dogs and cats are not permitted to fly most airlines at all anymore. Some airlines do allow some high risk breeds, however they are banned from flight on certain routes due to extreme climate/temperatures. For owners, and breeders of these dog breeds and cat breeds, pet ground shipping has become the only option available. So it is important that those who are in need of relocation for these breeds choose a reputable, registered, and insured pet shipper.
