shipping pup by plane

Is it hard on a pup to ship it by plane? Thanks

It's less then ideal,but I would rather buy and ship a pup by plane from a breeder I have full confidence in, then by from a local breeder I have no confidence in

I do not think its physically or mentally hard for you. You will need to buy a crate, shipping company probably has some they use regularly. I would contact the company you want to ship with and they would help you out, if they have no idea or have never done it, find a company that has. Its probably the fastest and easiest on a dog unless its being driven straight through.

I sent a pup a few months ago with a good dog hauler from detroit to south of little rock and the pup spent 10 days in the truck!!!!

Better half has shipped her show dogs all over the country, we use Delta cargo, Need a vet health certificate with in ten days prior of shipping, Plastic crate from wally world will do

Thanks for the reply's, but I should of used the word transport instead of shipping I guy has offered to pick a pup up for me in his plane, sounds like he will be fine
